Happy Adoption News, and a Way to Support PAWS

You may recall that PAWS recently held a special adoption event called, "9 Lives for Nine Dollars," in which all cats nine months and older could be adopted for a super low fee of $9.  You're probably wondering how the nine-day event went, right?  Well, check out these exciting adoptions!

In all, nine adult cats were adopted during the "9 Lives for $9" event.  And here's the FULL list of adoptions since our last update: Anime, Barbra, Belle, Bobble, Caru, Chandler, Chino, Christina and Kyle (together), Cuddles, Fendi and Henrietta (together), and Hippity and Hoppity (together, to permanent foster), Imogene, Mercy, Ross, Sabre, Scooter, and Spooky.

We know you all love hearing about how the PAWS graduates are doing in their new homes, and we already have a happy report from Sabre's new family!  Here's what they wrote on the PAWS Facebook wall:

Sabre and his new BFF!

"We are in love with our newest family member, Sabre! He has already explored his new home, had something to eat & settled down in a cozy spot. We can see why he was so loved at PAWS. He's a wonderful cat. Now our family feels complete."

Here are a couple of other "happy tails" to make you smile.  First up is a picture of recent PAWS graduate Sierra in her new home (we're told that she's doing great!):

And little Bobble, now named Quinn, has also settled into his forever home quite nicely.  Here he is, hanging out in the cat tree with his new sibling!

Here's a neat way you can support PAWS.  A company named Social Pakt is offering a limited edition t-shirt, customized for PAWS! For every t-shirt sold between Monday, Nov. 19th and Sunday, Dec. 2nd, PAWS will receive a portion of the proceeds.  You get a great looking shirt and PAWS gets a generous donation! Please go here to learn more, and to see the T-shirt design.

Thanks for reading, everyone.  Have a great day! :)

Easy Like (Sammy) Sunday :)

Here's our very own PAWS graduate Sammy, taking it easy on his favorite chair and dreaming of the magical day when his Christmas tree makes its annual appearance.

Don't worry, Sammy, we'll be setting that tree up for you next weekend! :)

A Very Special Adoption Event

This Saturday (November 10), PAWS will begin a fantastic 9-day adoption event. "9 Lives for 9 Dollars" -- part of Best Friends Animal Society's national promotion of the same name -- runs through Sunday, November 18.  And it is exactly what it sounds like ... all PAWS cats (nine months and older) can be adopted for a super low fee of just $9!

All these cats are spayed/neutered, current on their vaccinations, FIV and FeLV tested, and microchipped.  You'll even get a goody bag of food, toys and other items to welcome your new BFF home.  Is that not the best deal ever? :)  IMPORTANT NOTE: Even though the fee will be just $9, all potential adopters will, as always, be carefully screened.

PAWS has so many amazing kittehs waiting to find their forever families.  Here are just a few:

Top Row: Allie, Tessa, Dottie and Elmer; 2nd Row: Miles, Cinnamon,
and Ginger, Amanda, and Woogie; 3rd Row: Marshall, Brenna, Boop
and Oscar; Bottom Row: Roamer, Sandy, Doodle and Swizzle

Click here to check out a video ad created just for this event.  If you live within driving distance of Norwalk, Connecticut, and are ready to find your new furry best friend, come on down!  If you DON'T live in this area, check here to see if a shelter in YOUR area is participating in the national event.  

Finally, PLEASE consider helping spread the word by sharing this post anywhere and everywhere you can.  You just never know who might know someone. :)

Thank you, everyone.  Keep those fingers and paws crossed for lots of forever homes, and have a great weekend!

Today (November 4), we’re taking part in “BlogBlast for Peace.” Since Mimi Lenox started it in 2006, this day of peace has grown to include thousands of bloggers in more than 150 countries.

Imagine all the people, living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer,

but I'm not the only one.

I hope someday you'll join us,

and the world will live as one.

This post is in memory of our Auntie Kathy, who possessed a beautiful smile and a true spirit of peace.  She also fostered countless kittens for her local animal shelter, and was a huge fan of the Beatles.

Wishing peace for all beings today and every day,
