Mimsy

Female

Meet Mimsy!
She started out as a real spit-fire, a real hisser. However, her foster mom has worked with her extensively on becoming more friendly and what a change! Mimsy is affectionate and friendly. She is also distintive in her markings. She has tortie markings and beautiful coloring in her face.

Jackson

Male
16 months
Jackson is the largest of his litter. He is a very confident cat. Jackson has no problem letting you know whether he likes something or not. He purrs the entire time he is around his foster family. Jackson is an alpha cat and would likely do well in a house as a single cat or would be fine if adopted with his brother, Brody. He tends not to like other animals, especially dogs. He is also quite sensitive to the smells of other cats around the house. So, if you are a humane society volunteer, you probably want to change your clothes before spending time with Jackson. = )

Mo

Male
18 months
Here's Mo! Mo is a huge cat that has rather long fur and seems to have some Maine Coon in him. He loves fresh water and is very affectionate. He likes sitting in his foster mom's lap every evening as he looks out the window and watches the world go by. Mo is a gentle giant looking for his forever home.

Sara

Female
16 months
This is Sara she was born June 3, 2010. Of her litter mates she looks the most unique. She has medium length hair that is very soft. Sara likes to play with other cats, and likes to run around the house quite a bit. She likes to be held and cuddled and will let you know when she wants to get down and run around. Sara needs to go to an indoor only home. She prefers not to be around dogs, but she may get used to a dog if properly introduced.

Meet Your Tabby!

The following posts will introduce all 9 foster kitties. Each of the cats is some variation of a tabby. All of these cats were rescued when they were rather young. In each case their mother was a homeless cat that had litters of kittens in the backyards of private homes. Most of the cats have been in foster care for around a year. During that time they were taken to the vet for check-ups, given their shots, spayed/neutered, and socialized so they would become adoptable. Some of the cats have gone to many cats fairs, but unfortunatey, they have yet to meet their perfect match. If any of these cats appeal to you, strike a chord in your heart, or you know of someone who would be interested in adopting or fostering with the option of adoption, please email me or forward the link to this blog to interested parties.

Getting Started

I have set a goal for myself to help 9 foster cats find their forever homes by October 15, 2011. This is an ambitious goal, no doubt. However, I think it is possible. This year has shown me that many things I thought not possible in fact can and do happen. I have decided to take this topsy turvy year and focus my energy into something positive. What a great sense of accomplishment I will feel when I meet my goal.
