TNR Monday!

Sammy a/k/a CHESTER!

Oh, the joys of rescue.  NOT.  A LOT.  A weekend full of ups and downs.  On Friday, I met Foster Janessa, foster for Sammy, at his potential adopters home, to see how well the initial meet and greet would go.  Janessa lives about an hour away, so she was gracious enough to make the drive to the adopter’s house.  We were going to leave Sammy there and see how it went.  By the time we left, they were ready to sign on the dotted line!  Cats don’t ‘show’ like dogs.  They can be quite nervous with someone new.  They are not themselves most times so I prefer to bring the animal to the person’s home, and see how it plays out that way.  My instincts proved right and all went well!  Thank you Janessa, again, for another successful adoption due to her offering to take in a cat from the street.

MUFFIN

That evening, we were to meet a potential adopter for Muffin!  We met at Foster Melissa’s house, and it all seemed to go very well.  Of course Muffin was scared, but not scared enough that when he ran, he just ran to the tree tower and stuck his head out of the little ‘cave’.  The next morning, we received a note stating that Muffin may not be the one.    Very disappointing, to say the least. But, the right one will come along!

JAC

On Saturday, someone was supposed to come along to meet Jac at her Foster Judie’s house.  A few hours before, she was sent an email stating that the person had found a FREE kitten and she wouldn’t be coming.  Another huge disappointment, but one more try, this time at Foster Sue’s house, for Eli.  This time, it was a NO SHOW.

DONALD

But the good news is that Donald was delivered and adopted by the same woman that adopted Davey and Charlie!  Remember Uncle Charlie?  Nothing but good reports on all!

The rotten news is that the slimeball is still doing this thing on Niagara.  Taking the food bowls, or throwing the food out sometime after I leave.  I am still waiting on a legal resolution, and hoping someone would be able to spy on this spot some morning!

TNR - Greeley and Parsells

On Greeley off Parsells, I feed behind a store.  There is a muted tortie that was pregnant early spring, but we were never able to get her in time.  So I set a trap today after not seeing her for a good long time, and I got another cat instead.  I suspect this one is a boy, and at least we will get him neutered, deflead and dewormed before we have to put him back on the street.  Oh well, I will keep trying!  There are SO many out there.

PARKER

Finally, here is a new picture of Parker, the kitten I rescued last week.  What fun this was, to see him go from scared, swatty and bitey, to just wanting to be held, loved and a purr machine.  This must be how, whoever had him, treated him.  Mean.  He is available for adoption!  

Have a great day!
