The Rescue Center had many visitors yesterday. We all enjoy having people come enjoy the cats. People benefit, it's good PR and the cats LOVE it! We had 2 adoptions also. Val and her sister and niece came from Michigan. Val adopted Dickens/Piper. I've already heard from her and things are going great. Dickens was a tad bit shy, but Val is winning his confidence and love! Our other kitten, Beyaz went to his new home also. He went to a family that has already adopted from us before: Ping, Pong and Ylee. Another wonderful home. We did find the home where O'Malley belongs. I took him there, we had a lengthy talk of pet ownership. O'Malley was very happy to see his family. This is very unusual for a cat to be claimed--I have only seen it happen 3 times. They will be making an appointment next week to get him neutered and we'll follow thru on this end to be sure this happens (we are helping with the cost of this neuter).
Rory, the American Short Hair, has been moved to Dodger's Pen so he has more people contact. He seems relaxed and is enjoying watching all the action. Our sweet Angel Kisses is recovering very nicely from her surgeries. She can sit up, get to her food bowls and the litter box all by herself. Over time she'll develop better muscle tone in her legs. She loves to be petted and likes to cuddle up to Lilly--the stuffed black/white cat toy.
