About the Cats - Page 3



This is Aries. She was rescued from a farm
when everyone moved and left all the cats behind.

Carmen was brought to us as a kitten by a family
that found several stray kittens trying to survive
in an alley in their neighborhood.

Mattie was rescued from a family that
was moving from the country, into town.
All the cats were being "disposed of" by bullets,
so we took the last two cats out in time.
She was wearing a harness that must have
been put on as a kitten and never removed.
She could hardly breathe, and it left dents
in her chest, as you can see.

Mattie is almost completely free of the damage
done by her harness, and her coat is shiny now, too.

Precious was rescued from a construction site
with 4 kittens. All of them were covered in diesel fuel.
We cleaned it off, but the stress had already
taken its toll and the kittens did not survive.
In addition, it took 2 years for Precious' skin to heal
and she still has a tendency to develop sores.

Punkin came in with Mattie but had no collar
or harness on, lucky for him. He loves to strech
out on the floor and does this many times
a day. He is only 2 so is still a playful kitten!

Radar was our resident top cat and enjoyed taking
care of the other cats. He passed over in May
and we miss him terribly!

Tara was rescued from a miserable life
living in a small pet taxi with 5 kittens.
All were deformed and 4 of them died
within a week.The lone survivor is Stubby.

Stubby is the lone survivor of Tara's litter.
For some reason, she does not photograph well,
and this is the best photo we have of her, resting
with Radar.

Sonny is on another page here, but we wanted to share
this little portrait to show how happy he is now.

This wonderful kitty is DaLinda, now renamed Georgia,
as that's where she came from. She's only one year
old and is already fitting in with the other cats.

Ebony (right) is our newest rescue here and
has made friends with Georgia right away.
Found in a parking lot, begging for food and
attention, we think Ebony was dumped there.

Hover your mouse over each picture for their names.
