Santa took a well-deserved rest after delivering 100 kitties to great homes during our Home for the Holidays adoption campaign. Now it’s Cupid who’s working overtime with all the love matches for our Be My Furry Valentine adoption campaign. With over two weeks left, 27 kitties are already in their “fur-ever” homes. That’s nearly double our goal!

We know you’ll be as happy as we are about little Oscar – the kitten who was a victim of the fire in Wells. He’s been adopted by the veterinarian who cared for him at the emergency clinic in Scarborough.

Carly, our other emergency kitty has made a full recovery and is back in her foster home, as happy as can be. Itty Bitty, who was featured in the paper as our feral office kitty has become quite a favorite. This darling now has her own sponsors and visitors. She has turned out to be a real ham and shows her new friends how much she loves Temptations cat treats served from your hand and chasing the laser light.

To see “ferals” like Itty Bitty interacting with people gives us such joy! Recent arrivals to our spa room are three very feral kitties. They stare unblinking at us, ears flattened, emitting hisses and growls at us. We simply work around them, slowly and quietly, talking gently to them. We know they, too, will learn to trust. It will be a long journey, but it will be a safe one here with us.

Sophie is all kissy kissy, not just because it’s Valentine’s Day, but simply because she is a real love-bug. When she isn’t trying to kiss you, she’s butting her fuzzy head against your head or hand asking for more affection. This beautiful torti has a bobtail which makes her all the more special. She loves people but likes other kitties to keep their distance. She will be a fantastic “only kitty” in a home where there is someone to give her lots of love and attention. Sophie is intelligent, playful and as lovable as they come! She was surrendered to us because her owner didn’t have enough time to devote to her and then had to move.

Sophie is eight years old. Adoption fees for all eight and older are waived. She could be the purrfect Valentine for you so come and meet this sweetheart of a kitty!
