ABOUT CATSY CLINE

Hi, I’m Catsy Cline and I am 9 years young. For those of you who don’t know I’m A Country Meowsic Singer. I haven’t done much performing lately. The pupaparrzzi have been a bit unkind about my weight. That all changed since I got to my foster mom’s. She is helping me train for Celebrity Fit Club: Feline Edition. I will need a forever family who can help with this too. I need a feeding schedule and small portions. It helps manage my diabetes. I need insulin twice a day. I take my shots like a good girl.

Don’t get the wrong idea I’m no diva. I am looking for a forever family who likes to cuddle, maybe even sit on your lap. I am happy just to be with you. I do have my very own special if it’s one of those days you think it’s too warm for a cuddly kitty. How you could not want my cuddles all the time is beyond me. Seriously how many cute, cuddly, country meowsic singing, calico cats are out there?

Also I get along well with other cats and dogs. I haven’t met any kids but I like everyone I meet so I’m open to living with some.

Would you like to sing a duet or start a family band? I’m your girl.

Love and kisses,

Catsy

i know catsy’s yowling will make you fall to pieces!

ABOUT HERO #1021

Hero – what a fitting name for this brave little boy. We were shocked when this senior cat arrived at our shelter on 3/14/17. Hero was nothing but fur and bones – every protuberance of his spinal column could be felt while gently petting him. He barely had the strength to eat, drink and use the litter box.

After three months on medication and a high calorie diet, Hero has done amazingly well. He has nearly doubled his weight and regained most of his normal strength. Hero now enjoys hopping out of his enclosure to explore every corner of the shelter while greeting everyone that stops to pet him.

We think Hero was born around 2003. He is a handsome, happy boy and he is one of the most affectionate cats in the shelter. Hero would be a wonderful senior companion to someone who could provide a little extra TLC for our sweet boy. We love our Hero and you will too!

NIKKI

Domestic Short Hair • 9 years • Female • Second Chance Animal Center • Shaftsbury, VT

Nikki was returned to the shelter after her previous owner had passed away. She doesn’t seem to be a big fan of other cats but she is better with dogs. Nikki’s leg was injured when she was younger so she does have a limp on one of her back legs, but that doesn’t slow her down! We were told that she knows how to use the toilet and can also walk on a leash! Stop by and see Nikki today.<

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NUTMEG!

They were mad I wasn’t sharing my food.

My adorable kitty dudes.

Just look at how much space these two under 10lb cats take up on my bed. My leg is cramping because I can’t stretch out. They are lucky they are so cute.

PS: Ellie’s white fur genuinely looks like fluffy clouds here.
