FURever Home Friday, Again!

We don't usually do "FURever Home Friday" posts on consecutive Fridays, but we have such exciting news that we just couldn't wait to share it with all of you!  While we celebrate each and every adoption, our spirits absolutely soar when any of our "long-timers" finally find their forever families.  So who, you ask, was gotcha'd in the last week?

Let's lead things off with Kurt, who is going to a home of his very own after one and a half years at PAWS!  His new forever human came in looking for a "younger" special needs cat, but fell in love with Kurt, instead.  (In case you're wondering, Kurt is 9 years young, and has asthma.)  :)

Kurt has been adopted!
Next up are sweet 12 year old brothers Derek and Andy, who are now in a loving permanent foster home, where we know they'll flourish!  These boys had been at PAWS for more than two years.

Derek and Andy are in permanent foster!
Also joining the ranks of PAWS graduates were:

Ming and Beijing (together)
Pan and Persephone (together)
Violet
Walter

 Congratulations, purrs and love to all of these kitties and their new families!

And finally, here's a really quick “happy tale” to make you smile:

Our fellow volunteer Pam R. says beautiful house panther Morticia (who was adopted from PAWS) is “…happy, frisky, and super cute…”  Sounds like a “happily ever after,” if you ask us.

Morticia, looking adorable in her forever home. :)
Have a great weekend, everybody!

I've heard back from Pan and Persephone's people, they are being funny and doing good. Kurt's doing good as well. His person had visitors over and they were all over him and Kurt was in heaven.

Great job, dear friends! We are excited too to hear a couple of older kitties were adopted, and adopted together. How cool is that! Thumbs up to you and the new families for being so open minded.

When we think of older cats, we think of our dear Lumpy, one of the mom's favorites, as you probably guessed.
