Happy Tails Ending: Just like we like them!!

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Remember two weeks ago when I asked all my readers for some help promoting precious Scotty’s search for his forever home???

Well it happened!!! Scotty was abandoned by his humans when they moved and Miss Kandi started feeding him around May, 2020. He was so dirty and thin.

After several months, Miss Kandi was able to win his trust so that she could pick him up and bring him to Mom L and Dad P to transport him to our county shelter for his neuter and vaccinations. They thought he was so nice that they kept him to help him find his forever home. Sadly for Scotty, the noise at the shelter was his undoing and he just withdrew. We found him a really nice foster home and they have had him for about three weeks. He was already fattened up by Miss Kandi, but now he was able to keep his white fur really white!

One of our volunteers with Project Delta View Cats posted Scotty on her Nextdoor network and the very next day a pawsome Dad and his even more pawsome young son, 12 years old, asked to visit Scotty. Long story short, Scotty is now living with them and about to start the best part of his life ever!1

Oh my! I do like nip!!

He is such a love bug. He always gives a little growl to start the conversation with a human, and then he shares his tummy for rubs and purrs.

Why yes, I do believe I want to live with you

Please give Scotty a huge round of APAWS!!!

A little help from my readers

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

It’s been a while since I asked, actually pled, for your help in SHARING, PROMOTING a cat I have embraced as one of my Paw It Forward efforts. Scotty is the young adult cat, maybe 3 years old, who is now embraced by me and Mom L and Dad P as an OFFICIAL Paw It Forward effort.

You saw Scotty for the first time as part of my Friday Memes blog post.

Meet Scotty, abandoned by his “human family” when they moved out of a large apartment complex very close to where I reside in my castle.

Mom L and Dad P and I have now helped over 40 cats from that apartment complex in the three years we have lived in my castle. Remember, at least 30 of those kitties were both kittens, juveniles and young adults in that pawful hoarding situation we stumbled upon in 2018.

Sweet Scotty was left behind when his humans moved. He thankfully eventually found my pawsome furriend Miss Kandi! She started feeding Scotty around May of this year. He was so very hungry.

Do you see how thin and dirty he was? This boy was so happy to find Miss Kandi. And then Miss Kandi and Mom L, Dad P and I lept into action!!

We got Scotty neutered! Whew! Then we tried surrendering him to our partners at our county animal services, but this darling boy cat just shut down. Soooooo—we found a temporary foster situation and just look how his in thriving!

Scotty is roaming around in a nice enclosure with four other rescued friendly abandoned cats. He is just the most gentle soul.

My request from ALL OF YOU WHO READ THIS BLOG IS THIS:

PLEASE SHARE SCOTTY FAR AND WIDE WITH ANYONE YOU KNOW WHO LIVES IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA

Scotty deserves an indoor home. He is available for adoption and can have a ‘meet and greet’ anytime. Please contact Mom L at rodgerslcr at gmail dot com.

One last update on rescue Paloma

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I have the bestest ever Happy Tails Ending to share with you all. Remember my first post about Sweet Baby Girl that Miss Kandi was feeding? And then I shared that Sweet Baby Girl now aka Paloma had been saved by the University of California, Davis program Orphan Kitten Project?

Well, sweet Paloma had four kittens and eventually all were adopted. Except for Paloma.

Loving Paloma was entered into the UCD Fracture Program for rescue animals because no one knew if her broken front leg would need to be amputated or if she could heal it herself with bed rest. GOOD NEWS!! Paloma, with those first weeks of just hanging out nursing her four kittens HEALED her own broken leg.

Next challenge, getting the four kittens adopted and a special home for Paloma. She is only about eighteen months old, just a young kitty.

It happened!! A family who adopted a small doggy from the Fracture Program loved Paloma’s story and they adopted her!! And Paloma turns out to love being with a dog furriend more than a cat furriend! Love just happens, right?

At first Paloma was a loner, finding places to hang out in quiet. But then, she discovered that her new doggy pal had his very own condo? Of course, like any cat, Paloma decided that condo was big enough for two!

She is loving her new home and her new buddy.

Please give Paloma and huge APAWS!!!

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH
