Happy Tails Success Story
I wanted to give you a quick update on the kitty formerly known as Sherlock Holmes. First, I decided to change his name this past weekend. Sherlock was a great name, and it fit him (especially the "Holmes" part, since we live in a neighborhood called Holmes Run Acres), but I caved into the temptation to give him a Gaelic name (I have been studying Scottish Gaelic for 7 years) when it came to me that he should be called "little seal." So, his name is now Ṛnan (pronounced Row-nan). He's already gotten used to it and comes when called, smart kitty that he is!
In general, he's doing really, really well. He's still sleek and shiny, though a bit bigger than he was, of course. His upper canines have come in and are too big for his mouth, so he looks a bit like a vampire! I entertain a lot and he's totally cool with having crowds of people around and is always the hit of the party. He loves to be held and cuddled and sleeps with me most of the time. (As I write this, he's curled up between my arms!) Thanks to his foster mom, Jackie! He is exactly the kind of cat I was hoping for! Regards, Catherine (and Ṛnan and Tinkerbelle)

Featured Kitty
Maddie was found in a park last winter, lonely, hungry and scared. She took time to adjust to her foster home but soon became a friendly and very talkative lap cat. Maddie will need someone with time and patience who can help her adjust to her new home. She is a sweet and loving cat, a wonderful companion who curls up every night with her foster mom! Maddie has a lush coat and declawed front paws. (Imagine that she was abandoned outside without any means to defend herself!) She has perfect litter box manners. Maddie would be best as an only pet in a quiet home.
We have a bunch of other great, older kitties who do not do well at adoption fairs. If you are interested in meeting one of our featured kitties, or any of those other wonderful adults, please email us to set up an appointment.
