Toby Goes Home!

Toby went home last night!  He will be living with a young couple and a ten year old Husky named Diezel.  Diezel lived with a cat for many, many years that died at the age of 18.  Toby will keep Diezel on his toes!

Elvis and Tango arrived at PetSmart this week. Elvis is a young male - about four months old and was brought in by a local volunteer trapper.  He is a good boy!  Tango is another young boy and is about two weeks older that Elvis.  Beware of this rough and tumble guy!  He was beating on Elvis when they first arrived.  He was segregated into his own cubicle as a result.  This little cutie with total attitude should not last long...orange males never do!

Celesta will be taking over every other Monday evening!!  Thank you, Celesta!!  Paige starts this Friday!  Good luck, Paige!

Just a reminder...  Please allow new arrivals to settle in on their own schedule.  Often times we tend to humanize the cats and think they want company or they are excited about the change of venue.  Most times the exact opposite is true.  The cats are stressed out because their surroundings have changed.  They are now stuck in an area where other cats have access to them and they feel threatened.  Allow new arrivals to have their own space until you see they are comfortable.  Do not force them out to play with others.  They will let you know how they feel if you watch and listen!  Just as we caution all new pet owners when they are taking their adopted pet home - slow introduction to a new environment lessens the stress on the pet.
