Easy Like Sunday - Darcy

Friendly and outgoing (and adoptable) Darcy has found herself a nice spot for taking it easy.  All of us (including Darcy, of course) hope YOU have an easy Sunday, too. :) 

And Happy Gotcha Day at the Rainbow Bridge to our Angel Sammy.  We love and miss you always, sweet boy. xoxo

Hooray! Trouper Has Been Found!

Great news ... TROUPER HAS BEEN FOUND! :)

He's pretty dehydrated, as we are in the midst of a severe heat wave, so Cindy is on her way to the vet with him now.  Please keep those purrs, prayers and good thoughts coming, as Trouper and Cindy can still certainly use them.

To all who helped with the effort to find him -- searching, posting, sharing, purring and praying, sending positive energy, and everything else -- THANK YOU.  You're great, and we all appreciate you so much.

Hugs,

Kevin, Tracey and Moosey 

Please Help Find Trouper! (UPDATED 07/19/13)

Trouper is missing!

*** UPDATE July 19th, 10:38PM: Trouper is still missing. :(  We helped look for him tonight.  Lots of people are sharing, and lots of wanted signs posted in the area. Thank you, everyone.  PLEASE KEEP SHARING, purring, praying and sending good thoughts.  Cindy says the scent/tracking dog is coming to Norwalk to help with the search tomorrow. ***

In all of our time volunteering at PAWS, we've made many wonderful friends.  One of them, dog volunteer extraordinaire Cindy, needs our HELP!  Her dog, Trouper, is MISSING.  He disappeared today (July 18th, 2013) at about 11 AM, in the vicinity of East Rocks Road in Norwalk, Connecticut.  Trouper is a black and white Border Collie, 15 years old.  He has a collar and tags, but you probably won't see them, since he's very furry.  He has a very long tail, which sometimes curls over his back. If you spot Trouper, please call Cindy at 203-988-3769.  PLEASE SHARE.  You just never know who might know someone who can help find Trouper.

Thanks, everybody.

Kevin, Tracey and Moosey

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Sweet Sheba

Remember our sweet friend Sheba?

Much to our delight, this beautiful and adoptable girl continues to open her heart to us.

She loves being pet, and spending time with her favorite volunteer pals.

We all love spending time with her, too.

FURever Home Friday :)

Guess what today is?  It's time for the latest edition of FURever Home Friday! Since our last adoption update, 22 PAWS cats of all ages found homes of their very own.  And even with kitten season in full swing, it was exciting that so many of the adoptees - like brothers Buster and Brian, sisters Amy and Amanda, Ewan, brothers Milo and Simba, Minnie Mouse, brothers Charlie and Marshall and the always irrepressible Elmer - were adult cats!  We're also happy to say that a number of them were gotcha'd during last month's "Nine Dollars for Nine Lives" event. :)

Here's the full list of recent graduates.  We love you, kitties!  ConCATulations to you and your new families!

Amy and Amanda (together)
