Every year we have more heartwarming stories than we can possibly share in real time — and some of them stick with us for months. That’s why our staff rounds up some of our favorite untold stories at the end of the year to share with you. Here’s the first batch of cats that you probably don’t know about, but whom you helped save this year.
Last month our adoptions spanned every type of cat we support! We found homes for seniors and scared older kittens. Cats who were frustrated, and cats who were afraid. Cats who were sick, and confident cats whose model behavior helped encourage the others to let their guard down.
We worked closely with shelter partners to identify the cats who needed the most help, supported those cats on their journeys with us, and found them homes — keeping in touch with adopters after the fact to ensure they had the guidance they needed to succeed with their new cat companions. We work our hardest every step of the way to give these cats a better future, and give every adopter a new friend who’ll be at their side for all their lives. We can do it because of people like you — so thank you for helping these cats and their people fall in love…
As we head into the last months of the year, we’re delighted by the number of Cat Town cats who have already found homes in 2021 — including 31 in September!
Last month 7 bonded pairs got adopted, including senior cats Travis and Oakley. Many of those bonded pairs also came to us as hissy Forgotten Kittens — like Aubrey and Margot, and Donatello and Leonardo — who learned from our volunteers that humans like to pet kittens, and pets are a very good thing! Some of our September adoptions needed medical support, like Gustav and Jaya, before they could be made ready to adopt…
With summer coming to a close, we’re rounding out the season with 25 adoptions in August! Many of these cats came to us shy and scared. Some were shut-down at the shelter and needed room to decompress. Others needed help building up their confidence and coming out of their shells. At Cat Town, we know patience goes a long way, and we’re willing to give these cats the time and care they need to get ready for their people…
We’re in the thick of summer, which means that the shelter is filling up with animals. Fortunately, we were able to help 36 hard-to-adopt cats find homes in July!
We helped 11 bonded pairs and 8 forgotten kittens, as well as senior cats, stressed cats, and cats with medical and behavioral needs — including dental work, litter box problems, and more. This month, we’re highlighting a number of adoptions who all have something in common: these cats were guardian surrenders who got their second chances at Cat Town…
Thank you for helping these budding friendships grow in our community. You make it possible for us to spread this happiness by supporting our work…
