Hey, Wednesday. Do you know what this thing is?

No clue, Merlina. I thought it was a fancy water dish for us, but then our foster mom sat on it. When she stood up again, it made this weird, loud noise.

I saw that, too!! Maybe it’s a toy for humans…..

I dunno, maybe. HEY! Let’s go play! NOT IT!!

Wednesday!! Wait up!!

You can’t catch me! Neener! Neener! Neener!!

Oh, yeah!? Wanna make a bet???

I bet ALL your treats that you can’t catch me.

No, way Wednesday! I wouldn’t give up my treats for ANYTHING!

Hahaha! I know, right! I wouldn’t either.

Hey, look! Our foster mom is home!

Yay!! Let’s go snuggle with her. I’m a bit tired from all this chasing and playing.

Maybe she’ll give us treats!

I hope so! I looooooooove treats.

*Purrrrrrrrr* Are you comfy, Wednesday?

Sure am, Merlina. *Purrrrrrrr*

Wednesday, do you remember the time you got locked in the fridge? Hee hee hee….

Haha! Yeah, I was trying to escape, but couldn’t, tumbled around and made a BIG thump inside the fridge. Foster Mom thought I fell behind the fridge. She moved everything, but still couldn’t find me. Then she heard me crying, opened the fridge and there I was!

I enjoyed watching that. I knew you were in the fridge the whole time, you know.

I know, silly sister….

Hey, do you remember that time you pounced on Foster Mom’s face when she was in bed and on her phone? You crashed her phone right into her nose! Bahahahaha!!

Oh, man! That was so fun! Being a black cat is so awesomely stealthy.

We do have a lot of fun together, don’t we, Wednesday?

We sure do, Merlina. Our Foster Mom is a lot of fun, too.

She sure is, I love her. But don’t you think it would be nice to have a forever home?

Yeah, that would be really nice. If you could pick your perfect home, what do you think you would want?

Hmm….well, I would definitely want people who understand we are shy at first and will give us time to get to know each other. And also people who have lots and lots of treats. I like to get to know people who have a lot of treats.

That’s a good one, Merlina. Treats are a must, for sure.

Wednesday, what do you think about kids and dogs?

I think I’d be fine with either, as long as they are nice to us.

You mean as long as we are nice to them?

Hee hee, yeah I guess we can be a little TOO playful and rough sometimes, eh?

Yeah, but we’re learning. Foster mom is teaching us how to play nicely.

She’s so good to us.

I’d like to be adopted with you, Wednesday.

I’d like to be adopted with you, too, Merlina.

I’m sleepy, Wednesday. *Yawn*

Shhhh! I’m trying to dream about our forever family.

But how will they find us?

Easy, Merlina. They can visit my bio and yours, then apply to adopt us. Now hush. Sleep time.

Ok, Wednesday….. ZzzzzzzZzzzzzzzZzzzzzz…….

Foster of the Week: Moose Shrek

October 23, 2016 by ·

Oh, hello! My name is Moose.

Who are you? A friend? How nice. Very nice to meet you.

Do you have a forever home? You do? Oh, that’s wonderful! I’m looking for my forever home.

I’ve been a Zoe’s foster cat for almost a year. Can you believe that? I do love my foster home, my foster mom is the best a cat could ask for, but, oh, how I would love a family of my own.

I am an affectionate gentleman. I love to sneak onto my foster mom’s lap when she’s sitting down, or curl up at the foot of her bed. I have the biggest cat smile, and I will use it show you how much I appreciate your attention. I love water, and I like to play with it. When you wash dishes, I will happily help you! I love other cats and small children and babies. I have a “best friend” cat here in my foster home. We love to play wrestle. After playtime, we nap together and snuggle. The other kitty here is not very social with other cats, so I respect her space for the most part. I’m sweet and unassuming, and I don’t meow very often. Instead I quietly chirp when I want to “talk” to you, or your other pets. I never get underfoot, or try to run out the door and I never beg for food.  Because I’m a sensitive and soulful guy, I prefer to watch from afar when new people and pets visit. After I get used to having company over, I will come out and say hello to everyone.

I’ve been wondering why people are passing me by, maybe it’s because I have some medical issues. They might sound intimidating, but it’s very easily managed. When I was just a baby, I accidentally inhaled some cat food into my lungs. Because of this, I occasionally go through periods where I start coughing and will have to go on antibiotics for a short while. It’s very easy to give me a pill though. Most of the time, my foster mom hides my medicine in a pill pocket, and I just eat it. I take fancy Chinese herbs, they keep the coughing periods at bay. But that’s all I need. Other than love and cuddles!

Now that we know more about each other, I think we are a great match! Let’s meet in person – apply to adopt me! You bring the treats, I’ll bring the purrrrrr……

Fosters of the Week: Hopper & Petrie

October 11, 2016 by ·

HopperOh, dear…… Petrie?? Are you here? Petrie!!! There are people here. They’re looking at me.

PETRIE!!!

Oh, dear. Oh, my. This is too much. I need to go hide.

*Pitter, patter, pitter….pitter, patter, pitter….pitter, patter, pitter……*

…..

……

…….

*Snuffle…..snort……snuffley snort….*

PetrieUm….hi? I’m Petrie. I heard Hopper calling for me. Did she go hide?

I thought so, she’s very shy.

She’s fabulous! (She’s my best friend, so I would know…) She’s just an introverted kind of cat most of the time. You should see her run, jump, and climb! Holy catnip!!! Running, jumping, and climbing isn’t usually something to be impressed by when it comes to cats, it’s what we do. But Hopper is special. She only has three legs.

Ok, so she’s not really special. Lots of cats and dogs are short a leg and get along just fine. Just like my girl, Hopper. I once knew a cat with seven legs!! Now THAT is special! No, I didn’t. I’m totally fibbing. Hopper really is a sweet young lady, though. She LOVES to sprawl her fluffy body all out and sleep and sleep and sleep. I swear every nap that girl takes is the best nap ever.

You see, we came from a very, very, very busy home. There were lots of cats. Too many. Our human was doing the very best he could, but it was too much for him. We were thankful for Zoe’s because, as much as our human loved us, it was a very unsafe and scary place for us. Many of us left with scars and fears. That’s why Hopper is so shy and timid. Me? Well, I caught some sort of sinus bug or something and now I can make the funniest snorts and snuffles. I’m healthy now, though, Zoe’s fixed me right up! The snorts and snuffles are a special souvenier, I guess.

I can be shy at times too. New environments and people are scary and intimidating. I wasn’t the ray of friendly sunshine you see before you when I first arrived in this luxurious foster palace. Oh, no! It took me a few months to realize how great it is here. Now I LOVE the pets and scratches – but please do not pick me up. I like all four paws on the floor, thankyouverymuch. And food. Oh, man. FOOD!! (Don’t tell Hopper, but I steal her food ALLLLL the time. Hee hee hee!)

Do you know what else this place has?? A RED DOT!!! Holy Dinah, is that thing ever fun!! Hard to catch too….. Little red stinker.

We’ve been here in our foster’s home for a while now. We had full examinations from wonderful veterinarians and all our medical needs tended too, we also had some much needed dental work done. We are adjusting well to our new lives and I think it’s high time we moved on to our forever home. (Hopper might not think so, but she will be okay. Paws crossed…..)

I think a low-key family would best match our low-key selves. No other animals, please. And probably no small kids. Older kids would be fine. People who will be patient with us and let us go at our own pace is most important. We would love it if you would visit our bios, look at our photos and fall deeply, madly in love with us. So deeply and madly that you are compelled to apply to adopt us.

Yours Forever,
(If you’ll have us…)

Hopper and Petrie

Foster of the Week: Felicity

September 26, 2016 by ·

Felicity Hunt

Bonjour. Je suis Felicity.

Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Are you looking for a feline companion? Because I am looking for a human companion.

I am a lady through and through and a bit particular. I don’t mind admitting that, a lady should ask for what she wants.

I had a human companion, but things didn’t work out. It’s been hard for me, transitioning from a home to a sanctuary to a foster home, so I would like to be clear with what I would like and need in a forever home. I hope to only have one more of those.

When I arrived at my foster home, I was quite skittish. I have the loveliest foster mom who has been so kind and patient with me, teaching me to be cuddly and loving. She has an ever-revolving band of misfits that she loves and helps and teaches, so I’ve been around many cats, kittens, and dogs. It’s been ok, but not my favourite. I don’t like to be picked on; I will shut down and hide if other animals scare me or hurt me. I would much prefer a home where I am the only furry resident.

You should also know I am on a special diet, strictly grain free. I was diagnosed with IBS, grains upset my tummy. When my tummy is upset, I am in pain and don’t always make it to my litter box. Believe me, I dislike that more than the humans do. I am a clean and proper lady, so not only was I in pain, I was also embarrassed to be messing in the house. You can imagine how happy I was to be diagnosed and treated. No more pain and no more messes!

Speaking of loos…. I am a particular user. I must have an open top litter box and I prefer high sides. I am told there are self-cleaning boxes, that sounds downright dreamy!!

Speaking of speaking….I am a talker! Now that I’ve learned how wonderful love and cuddles are, I am vocal about my desire for attention. I am still working on myself, though, so I would appreciate your patience. Ladies should not be rushed.

I hope I haven’t come across too pushy or prissy. Cats who know what they want and need get a bad wrap sometimes, but I think I am charming and loveable. Not to mention stunningly beautiful.

If you agree, we should meet in person. Visit my bio and apply to adopt me!

Foster of the Week: Princess Peach

August 28, 2016 by ·

Hi again! Princess Peach here!

It’s been a few months since we last chatted, I have so much to tell you.

I abdicated my throne at Rabbit Hill Pet Value, it wasn’t really my style. I took over a more homey castle for a short time, however I found myself to be quite put off by feline subjects. So off I went in search of more suitable lands.

And now here I am, in the absolute best kingdom yet!

There are no other animal subjects here, just two-legged loyals and I love them so.

We have the liveliest conversations and they understand that my affection is on my terms. Make no mistake, I am a very affectionate princess. I adore head rubs and will somersault into your hand for them. I also quite enjoy lying beside you while you love and pet me. When I have had enough, I will simply wander away for some me time. My humans also understand that as sole monarch, everything in this kingdom is mine. As such, I rub myself on everything – furniture and humans alike. I will also flop onto my back so you can admire my beautiful tummy, it’s a sign of love. But hands off! It’s just for show.

I consider myself the People’s Princess. A feline Princess Diana, if you will. While I do have some regal requests, ones that I will not bend, I am sweet and loving and FUN! This princess is not too proper to play! I love wand toys. My foster mom says I carry the wand away with glorious triumph when I catch it. And I have a catnip toy that is just marvelous for tousling.

I am so happy to have finally settled in a suitable home. I’ve shed my sassy shell and have become the princess and lady I am meant to be.

Let’s do lunch! Visit my bio and apply to adopt me!
