“LUCY”- Spayed Female-Angora Black with White Tuxedo. Approx: 2 years- “ Okay, this is the deal. I can be a bit of a cranky pants, fuss budget, and/ or drama queen at times. It isn’t too often, and I do get over what ever bugged me fairly fast. Just step away, get out of my space and leave me alone. We will all be okay soon. I have discovered that I would be much (much, much!) happier as an only pet. My stress level drops (plummets!) and I am more of a happy camper more often. I also think (know) that I would be better off living in a more quiet home-that means no toddlers throwing things at me, and no kids running by dragging things after them. An older home, maybe with older teenage kids would be good, or better yet, a retired couple who wants company, and has a room for me to seek shelter if the grandkids visit! Who knows? On a limited basis I may be ok dealing with kids, but, I need a safe place to go if I want. So, I may come with a small amount of baggage, but, really, not all that bad. I’m a beautiful girl, my coat is thick, soft and shiny. I have big bright yellow eyes, and I enjoy the company of my family (most of the time) Don’t worry, I’m ok with taking some time to get to know each others life style, and what we both may like or dislike. (I think I would like a fish tank) J So, stop by the shelter and visit me. I have pretty much taken over as the office cat.” LOOKING FOR PEACE AND QUIET LUCY ps- my vet has just mentioned that I’m a bit obese, so I am currently on a diet. I also need exercise, they have no stairs at the shelter, climbing stairs in my new home would be a huge help in losing some extra weight. Just a bit of info in the hopes that it helps me to find a home, you would be doubly saving my life!
“SANTA”-Neutered Male-Angora Black with White. Available around June 30th
BUDDY”-Neutered Male-Shorthaired Tiger Tuxedo, Orange with White. Approx: 1 year. Fiv positive-in foster home
“SHACKLEFORD”- Neutered Male Angora Grey With White Tuxedo. Approx: 5 years “Since cats can’t talk, (or, wait a minute, cats can talk, humans can’t understand) no one really knows my real history. Let’s just say this tough guy cat isn’t talking anyway and leave it that it has been a tough road to walk, and it’s time for my furry feet and worn out pads to feel the easy life of carpet and smooth tile floors. The days of dirt digging and puddle drinking are gone. I have enjoyed my stay at the shelter and I now know the finer things in life are within my grasp. I have now been blessed with my own private rest room, clean bowls that fresh food goes in (pretty much never ending- I eat it all, more appears!) and water that I can see my reflection in. I have been cleaned up, poofed up, dematted, de-bugged, and neutered. (Long overdue for all I must admit!) Even though I may have been a bit grumpy and crochety on the first couple days at the shelter, it was really because I was petrified and had never been confined before, and, in my defense, I never was mean or tried to bite.By day three I was getting brushed and enjoying the attention. I couldn’t help purring and knitting. Now, I am right at the front of the cage for any attention I can con someone out of. Due to my years of fighting with other homeless cats, I tested fiv positive, so my new home should be other cat friendly cats and not the type who won’t get along with me. I’m even ok with being the only cat, just so I get all the attention! I am real lovable also, but, I think the best home would be with older kids, since they are more calm. It may take a few days to settle in at first, but, pretty sure it won’t take all that long. I can’t wait to find a spot on the couch!” THEY CALL ME SHACK
“ALFRED”-Neutered Male-Shorthaired Black with White Tuxedo. Approx: 12 + years- “Down and out, that’s pretty much the story of my recent life. I was found one afternoon, staggering and falling over in the road. And, wouldn’t you know, it was during one of the cold, bitter days, which just added to my misery. A nice man found me and called the shelter. He wrapped me up in his jacket while he waited. I hadn’t felt that warm in a long time. I spent the next three days at the vets, getting all kinds of help-warm fluids, meds, blood work, and, most important for me-some warmed up canned cat food-it was the best food I had ever had! Finally, I was ok to go to the shelter, where I am now settled in, begging for all the attention. I’m taking advantage of my sob story and I’m really working it! Who knew after all I had been through, figuring that this is the end, I would have another chance for a real home. Did I mention just how sweet I am? How about the head butts? Did I mention that? If that doesn’t make someone feel bad, I have a quiet meow and a sad sack face to work it. Add in putting my paw through the cage like a plea for help, and I’m hoping that when I’m ready to be adopted, all my plans will work for me. Who needs a crazy kitten when you can have a lovable, laid back, sweet older gent that appreciates everything he gets? Save your furniture, no kitten crazies for me, I may take a couple scratches on the cat condo, but, no curtain climbing, wrecking the furniture from me (been there-done that-long ago!) I’m just happy to have a comfy spot on the couch (or lap), a nice friend, and a full bowl of food. Add in a nice sunny spot to soak up some rays, and I’m all set. So, come on, give an old guy a chance. I just want to be loved again!” NEVER TOO OLD TO GO HOME ALFRED-in foster home
