Panda

Well we had a big day yesterday but we have made a lot of progress. All Panda wants is love and lots of it and we have it to give him love and patience. We decided to let him finish his sniffs and he would just beg for luvs. What's so funny we were sitting in the living room and he jumped on my lap. Later that day my husband and I were lying down and to our surprise he jumped on our bed an layed down with us. We just pet his head and gave him his space. Billy was sleeping because we had walked him. Yes we trained Billy to walk on a leash and he was tired, so Panda had a lot of time with us. Well to my surprise my husband was sitting with him and brushing him and he just loved it! We were so surprised. Panda is a very loving cat and we know when to give him his space. He loves his room. He has a nice window to look out at the pond an and most of all a beautiful bed to lay on. When he is a little shy he goes to his room and sits by his window. With time love and a lot of patience Panda will be the perfect mate for us and for Billy. I will update you as we progress. We love Panda very much and are very blessed to have him. Thanks for everything. ~Patti

KitKat

He settled in - so have we. He's just PURRFECT for us.

Adrian

Adrian is now Jude. He is so loveable and like to cuddle. He plays with his big brother all the time and they make me laugh. I am so glad that I got him. He likes to watch the computer screen and would e-mail you himself, if he could spell. He is growing and all is well. He has stolen everyone's heart and the bedroom. My two cats have been remarkable in accepting his presence. He likes the carrier when he naps, so I let him have his space. Loves to play, gets all the attention he requests. He's beautiful in every way. Thanks, Donna

Coffee

Coffee is a real gem thank you very much. He has made himself at home and is very friendly to all of us. He sure does have a loud meow! Ivy still has some adjusting to do but overall is treating him well. She never touched him but still does some hissing. Thanks again, Paula and Courtney

Juanita Valdez

We asked Anthea (one of the adoption volunteers) to recommend a cat a few years ago, and we took her advice and adopted Tessa. We had been considering getting another cat or kitten, and since Anthea was so spot on with her recommendation of Tessa, we asked who she thought would do well with the kids, Tessa, and our dog. She recommended Juanita (now Mabel). Mabel wants to be friends with everyone. She wants to be with people and the other pets. Our other cat is being timid, but that doesn't stop Mabel from going up to her. She even rubbed her cheek against Piper, our dog, in greeting. She loves being petted and played with. Her purr motor goes on the moment we go up to her. Mabel is good about being picked up and cuddled. The two nights she has been here, she slept next to me. She only spent a small amount of time under the bed when she first got here, but her curiousity got the best of her and she has spent the rest of the time wandering around the house and acts like she has always been here. Mabel is definitely a keeper! We are so happy we got her. UPDATE: Mabel and Tessa sleep together sometimes now. It only took a short time for Mabel to win her over. She loves running around and playing, but also has a super loud purr that starts when you go near her, and keeps getting louder as she gets attention and pettings, or is being held. The whole family (pets included) is happy to have her. ~Linnea
