The Cats Are Back!!

Introducing Decker, Bon Bon, Poirot and Stella!

Decker came into the Shelter in mid-October of last year as a stray.  He was about four months old at that time and was sick with an upper respiratory infection. Decker is all boy and all kitten! All he wants to do is play, play, play!  He loves his toys!  Decker is going to make a very good family pet.

Bon Bon is a girl who came into the Shelter in early January of this year.  This pretty blue cream calico is a sweetie who wants to hang out on the couch and eat bon bons and watch TV with her very own family.  Bob Bon is about a year old.  She will make a nice companion!  Someone is already interested in her so most likely she will not be at the store very long.

Poirot is about eight years old and came into the Shelter at the end of October last year.  It is suspected that he was a stray that someone was feeding and then left behind.  He was neutered when he came in so someone cared about him at some point.  He is that rare cat that does not mind being held.  This loveable middle aged guy deserves a break and a second chance!

Pleasant Poirot

Stellaaaaa!!!!  This three year old girl came into the Shelter in early December of last year.  The neighborhood was complaining that she was kept outside and deserved a better life.  This sweet, chatty little girl lived with cats in the past and will be a purrfect addition to the family!  

Stunning Stella

So, there you have it - the new squad!  It is a nice bunch!

Good news... We have a good application on George.  The applicant has been approved to meet him.  What's not to like, right?  Hopefully he leaves once he meets them.  

Four rolls of the brown paper have been purchased.  Do your best to reuse whenever possible.  If it can be avoided do not change the paper every day.  That being said - do not hesitate to use it if it looks bad though!

Please look ahead to February and let me know if you can cover any of the open dates.  Coverage is still needed this weekend for Saturday, January 30 for the evening cleaning and Sunday, January 31 for both the morning and the evening.  Difficult to believe it is February in just a few days!!

Let's start with the BEST news!!  Tito and Belvedere left on Saturday!  They are joining two other cats - two one year old brothers - and a human mom.  As recently as six months ago this was a four cat household but two passed away.  The balance is now restored and our beloved B & T can be house cats!  They belong in a cat savvy house so this is perfect!

Robert was adopted by a young man and his father.  He will be living with a Lab/Shar Pei mix named River.  They were very excited to be approved.  They were the second application and were thrilled when notified the first applicant withdrew.

And Tess!!  Finally!!  She was adopted by a woman and her teenage son.  She will be the only pet and will be getting a ton of attention!  It was worth the wait!

Most of you did not even get a chance to meet Kris and Kringle who arrived at Petsmart Friday morning and were adopted Saturday afternoon!!  Their pictures are below.  They are joining a BIG family and will have a lot of fun!  They are joining mom and dad and five kids (ages 15, 12, 11, 7 and 1).  They are the only pets.  Can't you picture them right now running willy nilly with all those kids?! Good for them!

So, poor George was the last man standing.  We decided this would be the perfect opportunity to do a deep cleaning of the adoption center.  George came back to the Shelter on Sunday.  Don't worry about him!  His time will come!  We all worry and then it happens!! 

I will send out an email when the cats have returned.  We are planning on Wednesday afternoon which means cleanings would resume on Thursday, January 28 in the morning.  I will confirm this on Wednesday.
