Moosey Update; and Foster Friend Friday

Happy Friday, everybuddy!   It's me, Moosey!  Mom and Dad said I could take care of the posting duties today, since I have some pretty good news to share...

So here it is. We have finally managed to get my diabetes regulated!  We know the insulin dosage that works best for me, and according to Dr. L., my blood glucose levels are now "excellent." This is especially remarkable considering my other health issues (which are also under control right now).  My most favorite part of all (and Mom and Dad's, too) is that I don't have to go back to the v-e-t for a whole month!

Thank you all again for keeping me and my family in your thoughts, purrs, prayers and for sending all of that healing energy. We love and appreciate you all very much.

Hugs and headbonks!

Moosey (and Gracie and Zoe, and Mom Tracey and Dad Kevin, too)

Can you please help our foster friend Betty?

This incredible young ladycat was pregnant and wandering a local neighborhood when she was rescued. All her kittens have been adopted, but now Betty is looking for her own happily ever after.

According to her foster mom (a friend and fellow PAWS volunteer), "Betty is a super friendly, outgoing, inquisitive and affectionate young lady who the vet estimates to be between 2 and 3 years old.  She has an amazing disposition, and would do well with children who are gentle with cats. We do not know how she is with dogs but with her self-assured nature she would probably do fine with cat-friendly dogs. She would probably do best in a home where she is the only cat."

Mom Tracey and Dad Kevin got to meet Betty on Sunday, and they said she is SO sweet.  She really loves everyone she meets, and would be an instant family member.  She is spayed, current on her shots, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV.  She's even microchipped. Read more about Betty (including how to adopt her) here!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Truffle

Our sweet and beautiful friend Truffle is still looking for her forever home. She's been waiting a long, long time.

Like any self-respecting cat, she's quite an authority on the subject of relaxation. :)

But Truffle is no one-trick kitty. As you can see in this video, she's also pretty good at playing, when the mood strikes her.*

(*If the video won't play for you, check it out HERE on YouTube.)

Come meet Truffle at PAWS today!

Easy Like Sunday - Room 5

It may be cold outside, but it's nice and toasty in Cat Room 5!

 

Plenty of space for every kitty...

 

 

Here's Jack O'Lantern, all set to doze off.

 

And best buddies Mindy and Bunny, enjoying some snuggle time.

Happy Sunday, Everybody! And remember ... don't shop, adopt! :)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Sydney

What better way to start your New Year than with a new best friend?  Sydney is a handsome, super-friendly lap cat in search of a forever home. This long-haired housepanther loves people (including those he's just met), and gets along with most other kitties, too.

Sydney is about 9 years young, neutered, micro-chipped and current on his vaccinations. He has tested negative for FIV and FeLV, and he's waiting at PAWS to meet you. :)

(A Whole Lotta) Easy Like Sunday

Happy Sunday! As you can see from these pictures, there's a whole lot of easy going on with the oh-so-adoptable PAWS cats today...

Wishing everyone a peaceful, easy Sunday, and a good week ahead!

A Most Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  As we close out 2014, we have a lot for which to be thankful. We've got our happiness, our health (including Moosey, who is currently doing well, and who seems to be responding to his insulin shots), and our family and friends (including all of you, of course!). Thank you, one and all, for your friendship, support, laughter, purrs and prayers. We love you all, and are so very grateful to have you in our lives.

Gracie, Moosey and Zoe ... ready for some New Year's fun. (Thanks, Nellie, Kozmo and Mom Barb!)

If you're wondering about Moosey, Gracie and Zoe's stylish attire, they're all over at Nellie and Kozmo's New Year's Bash.  They all hope to see you there, especially because Nellie and Kozmo are having a commentathon to benefit our friend Joe the Donkey, from Marg's Animals. (And to see more pics of Moosey, Gracie and Zoe and some of their friends at the party, click here!)

And speaking of starting the new year in style ... a whole bunch of PAWS kitties found their forever homes since our last FURever Home Friday update!

Top row: Annie, Marley and Morris; 2nd Row: Molly and Wolfy; 3rd Row: Blinkey, Wizard and Bjork; Bottom Row: Pita & Crumpet, Elvira and Jute

Here's the complete list of the most recent PAWS cat graduates, in alphabetical order: Annie, Ava, Basil, Bee Bee, Belle, Bjork, Black Beauty, Blinkey, Circe and Annie Oakley (together), Coco, Cody, Cola and Wizard (together), Elvira, Eno, Gizmo, Howard, Jill, Jute, Marley, Morris, Noko Marie, Onyx, Oregano, Pita and Crumpet (together), Ricki and Roo (together), Sabrina, Tarragon, Thyme, Wolfy and Wyatt.

Tracey and I were lucky enough to be at PAWS when Molly's new mom and dad came to take her home. Miss Molly was so ready to go that she walked right into the carrier for the trip to her happily ever after. And she's quickly made herself at home, as evidenced by these pictures from Mom Carey:

 

WISHING YOU ALL A NEW YEAR FILLED WITH LOVE, HAPPINESS AND HEALTH. :)

Easy Like SUNday

Here's beautiful and adoptable Noname (pronounced "No-nah-may"), daydreaming of sunpuddles and a forever home.

Noname loves humans, and gets along well with the other kitties in her room.

Noname is about 10 months old, spayed, micro-chipped, and up-to-date on all of her vaccinations. She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  And just like all the other PAWS cats and dogs, her adoption fee is just $25 through the end of December. Come meet Noname today!
