Happy Meow-lidays! :)

All of us here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life wish you the happiest of holidays, and a blessed new year. We'll be taking it easy for the next few days, but want to thank you all for your continued support and friendship!

Love,

Kevin, Tracey, Sammy, Moosey, and all the PAWS cats :)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Jack and Jet

Cute boys Jet and Jack are definitely on Santa's "good" list. We're hoping their wishes for forever homes come true for the holidays. :)

And for all of you last-minute holiday shoppers who live in and around Norwalk, Connecticut ... come check out all of the great stuff for sale at the PAWS store (located at the shelter)!

Moosey's Quest for a Christmas Hat

Hi there, everybuddy!  It's me, Moosey!  Sammy and I have been very good boys this year, so we have high hopes that Santa Claws will be visiting our house on Christmas Eve.  I'm hoping to stay up to greet him, and want to look extra special when he comes down the chimney.  So I've been trying to find just the right hat for the occasion.  Since today is my dad's birthday (Happy Birthday, Dad!), I let him pick HIS three favorite hats on me.  Here are the ones he chose:

What's that I hear?  Is that you, Santa?

Have a great weekend! :)

Tri-Color Tuesday

Looking to add some color (and sweetness) to your holiday season? Then Callie may be just the cat for you!

Just look at my beautiful furs! :)

This gorgeous ladycat is 10 years young. Callie enjoys being pet, getting scritches, and giving headbonks to her favorite staff members and volunteers. She is on the reserved side, so she's looking to be an only pet in a quieter home. Callie is spayed, microchipped, current on her vaccinations, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  Won't you consider giving this gentle girl the forever home she so deserves?

FURever Home Friday :)

Carter: (A) Home for the Holidays! :)

Even though some PAWS cats are still waiting for their forever homes, it warms our hearts to think of some of our "graduates" enjoying their first holiday seasons with their new families. Check out this list of recent adoptions that's sure to provide you with some holiday cheer...

Remember our pal Kessa, who in October, finally found her very own forever home after waiting for 2 1/2 years? Well, her new mommy wrote us to say:

Cassie (formerly Kessa) is "a wonderful addition to (our) family."

"I just wanted to let you know that Kessa (now known as Cassie) is doing great. She enjoys naps in a variety of places and enjoys a spirited game of tag every morning with the other girls. Zoom, zoom up and down the stairs. She also likes to surprise me by getting on top on the refrigerator. She is very cuddly and has a tongue like a wire brush, which she loves to use on my face. Thank you for taking such good care of her. She is a wonderful addition to our family."

Now that's what we call a happily ever after!

Have a great weekend, everybody! :)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Doris and Dae

This is Dae.

Here's Dae with her sister Doris. They love each other very much, and MUST be adopted together.

They are extremely friendly, sweet, and available for adoption.

Doris and Dae would make somebody's holidays very happy indeed! :)

For more about these adorable sisters, visit "Sundays at the Shelter," a great blog written by our friend (and fellow PAWS volunteer) Maggie. :) 

Easy Like Sunday - Maribelle

Maribelle is one of the lucky cats who live in the Meeting Room. As you can see, she's decided to take it easy today. How about you?

Have a great (and easy) Sunday, everybody! :)
