Easy (and Snuggly) Like Sunday

You don't need any milk with this Oreo!  Check out these special moments captured between Tracey and our super sweet (and adoptable) friend, Oreo, in the PAWS meeting room.

The sofa you see Tracey laying on is great, because it helps the kitties to get a feel for the kind of furniture they are sure to encounter in their eventual forever homes. :)

Come meet this sweet boy at PAWS today! :)

FINALLY FURever Home Friday :)

Have you heard the mind-boggling statistic about black cats being only half as likely to be adopted than cats of other colors? And that on average, their stays in shelters are several months longer than those of other cats? We've certainly seen this time and again at PAWS with cats like super sweet Allie, who had been here since October of 2010. Allie had come very close to being adopted a few times, but until recently was still waiting and hoping for her very own happily-ever after.  Well, guess what?

BEAUTIFUL HOUSE PANTHER ALLIE HAS FINALLY FOUND HER FOREVER HOME! :)

Her new mommy (PAWS volunteer Laura) says: "Allie is doing well. She is a sweetie pie. We are so happy we got her! and so happy we are able to give her a loving home. She was introduced to the upstairs, next it will be our other 2 black kitties we have."

Much love to you and your forever family, Allie.  We are over the moon for you all!

Big congratulations are also in order for Crazy Horse, Gus, Oliver (from foster), and Peanut, who were also adopted!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Mr. Daisy

OMC!  Who could possibly resist that face?  Playful, sweet and adoptable Mr. Daisy is waiting to meet YOU. :)  (Editor's note: we've received a few comments that confirm what we've already been thinking ... Mr. Daisy looks A LOT like our pal Katie at GLOGIRLY!)

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.
