Happy News Update :)

We love sharing happy news! And it doesn't get much happier than a bunch of shelter cats finding -- and loving life in -- their forever homes. Also ranking pretty high on the happiness scale is hearing that other kitties are doing well in their foster homes. In any case, we hope the following "happy tails" help start your weekend with a smile...

First ... BFFs Angel and Roxy have been adopted together! :)

And the following kitties have also joined the ranks of PAWS graduates:

Both Gadget and Augusta are flourishing in their respective foster homes. We'll provide details (and hopefully pictures) in an upcoming post.

Finally, PAWS received a bunch of wonderful follow-up reports about some of our alumni. There were too many to include them all, but here are a couple we think you'll really enjoy:

Remember Sammy, the sweet, one-eyed wonder cat?

His new owner reports that Sammy is enjoying his new forever home:

“I was able to get some pictures of Sammy. I thought he would be easy to photograph, but he's always in motion! Busy as a bee! He seems to be settling in just fine so far. He does one thing that amazes me. He will sit about three feet from the bedroom door and "stare" at it. He seems to know there is a closed door there and wants to know what's on the other side. Meanwhile, Andy seems to have no clue there is another cat in the apartment. I'm sure that will change by tomorrow.”

And Grover the Cat wrote us to say, "I’m happy and healthy and doing great ... I’m so happy that I play all day like a kitten again!"

Here's Grover's Christmas card:

Yep, he definitely looks happy to us. :)

Thanks for reading. Have a great weekend, everybody!
