Jane is looking for her own human!

"I want my own lap!". Jane was left behind by some humans who moved. Right now she lives with a lot of foster cats, and she would so love her very own human. She's trying so hard to be a good sport about foster care--- and she's been trying so long!---but she would prefer to be the one-and- only cat. She's just hoping her human soulmate will see her and reach out....

UPDATE: Jane just had a dental, and she feels great! Meaning that she is even more sweet than before. Won't you give her a call?

We are a nonprofit cat rescue. Her adoption fee of $85 covers spay, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, and treatment for fleas and parasites. Jane just had a dental today also, and is now evn more ready for her new home!

Halloween's over... now you can adopt Abby!

Abby, the sweetheart, is another victim of the economy. At least such we assume since she was dropped off at a store without anyone noticing. Abby is a sweet, lively cat with little tufts all over her ears. Recently she decided to meet Charley Brown, the puppy who we, the cat group, are offering for adoption. Abby treated the puppy just as cordially as if he were her long lost kitty friend. Now we know that she seems to do fine with dogs.

Adoption fee of $125 covers spay, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, and treatment for fleas/parasites. Also please remember that we are having an August special: Any cat adopted during the month of August comes with her own litter box and cat carrier.

If you would like to meet sweet Abby, please call (636) 343-7106 and also feel free to come by the PETCO in Affton during business hours.

Lap Cat Seeks Quiet Home~~

This soft, sweet little cat managed to survive landing in a high volume kill shelter. As a solid black cat, shy and demure, senior, and with only three legs, her chances were not good to make it out alive.

So we came and got her.

Amelia gets along with everyone in the world, and is longing to have her own family so that she can sit on their laps while they watch the news at night. After that she's like to crawl into bed with you and purr. Even after everything she's been through, Amelia just wants to be your little friend. Won't you drop her a line and make her purr for the rest of her life?

Adoption fee of $95 covers spay, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, and treatment for fleas/parasites.

Rascak is looking for fun!

Sweet, playful, mischievous. A cat who knows his own mind, Rascal is all about action. Don't leave your ball point pens lying on top of the desk or they will become his favortie toys! And if another cat happens to innocently walk by, there's his next toy! Rascal will do best in an active home with people who will play with him. He's quite adorable once he calms down. And always so cute!

Rascal is looking for a home with no other cats. He is excellent with most dogs once he knows them. The best way to meet Rascal is to call his foster mom at (314) 650-0178.

Adoption fee of $125 covers neuter, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, and treatment for fleas/parasites. Rascal also had a dental last month.

Hobbes and Bandit were adopted yesterday!

Lady Gaga is lo0king for home in St. Louis!

Lady Gaga, sweet little muffin that she is, starts purring as soon as you pet her. She kneads her little paws in and out, and gives head butts galore, in a riveting performance of adoration. Sweet little firecracker. She was living with an elderly lady and four torties. Reportedly she was quite the bully to the torties. Could it have been that she sensed she just didn't fit into the sorority of torties? Perhaps we'll know one day, but for now we are recommending that she be placed as an only cat. At her vet visit today, though, she was observed to be unflappable in the midst of exactly five barking dogs in the waiting room. So perhaps she would be fine in a home with dogs.

We are clear that she gets along great with all humans, and would very much love to have her own! Won't you come meet Lady Gaga?

Adoption fee of $95 covers spay, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, upcoming dental, and treatment for fleas/parasites. To inquire, please call (314) 650-0178.

Biggie (felv+/fiv+), still going strong, still looking for a home!

Biggie is in a foster home. Not with me (photographer), but with my friend. I'd like him to have his very own home for his sake and also for the sake of the human who adopts him. He loves cuddling and contact, so if he had his own home he would have more contact than he gets in foster care (and be happier). And, he will deliver a force field of good feeling in return. I felt a flow of relaxation and happiness coming from him into me while he was on my lap. He has so much goodwill that you absorb some of it while he is on your lap.

He could care less if he tests positive for feline leukemia~

He's all about living.

Marty is among the most robust and sweetest kittens we have ever met. He loves everyone he meets. He can jump as high as the shoulder of a person who is 5' 9"! Yet if you sit down, he loves nothing more than for you to hold him in your arms. He's really the perfect kitten.

Marty and his littermates test positive for feline leukemia, and therefore nee to be adopted as only cats or into families whose cats also test positive. The babies are so agreeable that we immagine they woud be fine with dogs, and they can live just fine with dogs as well!

We are looking for either a foster or a permanent home for Marty and his siblings. Our feline leukemia foster parent has toomany foster cats to give these guys as much play time and attention as they need. We are in the process of working out a permanent placement for these cats, but feel free to inquire if you would like to adopt permanently. Also please inquire if you would be able to foster for 3-6 months.

If you are interested in fostering or adopting, please call (314) 650-0178.

A Funny Story about Rusty

Just when you think you've heard it all.....  a CA advertising place wants to adopt Rusty and put him through training to star in cat food commercials.  Like Morris.  They are for real, and are very serious.  Mind you, I only do the publicity, so all my information comes filtered through the two main rescue ladies. Reportedly the trained cats have a very good life and lots of attention.  And the advertising people are making arrangements to fly to St. Louis several times to check Rusty out.  I swear this is all true!  I could not resist asking the rescue ladies: "Don't they have cats in California?"  That's what I can't figure out.

Mama Chloe is looking for her home!

Mama Chloe plays hard, just like a little kitten. Quite adorable, one of her favorite games is to burrow under a blanket and stick her head out. She belonged to a sad person who was struggling with severe mental illness, let the cats get pregnant, and lost the house. So Mama Chloe had some kittens when she came to us. Seems like now she thinks she's a kitten herself. So carefree, like the weight of the world has left her shoulders. All she is missing is her very own human!

Adoption fee of $125 covers spay, test for felv/fiv, vaccinations, microchip, and treatment for fleas/parasites. And if you adopt Mama Chloe during the month of August, she comes with her own litter box and cat carrier (our "back to school/back to a home" special).

more heartworm news but Chewie still happy

Took Chewie to the best vet I know-- I'll find out tomrrow if Chewie can be treated.  And vet says no long walks, no stress, no cat-chasing, no enticing Chewie to play. :(
Chewie is stuck in the backyard, and the vet says if I walk him it has to be less than a block.
But Chewie is still happy.

I got to look at the baby heartworms using the microscope, and I learned a lot about heartworm today.

Chewie goes to Tower Grove Park

After coffee, Chewie and I went to Tower Grove Park.  He was enthralled with the bikers and joggers.  He was a little nervous about approaching the ponds; I don't believe he has ever seen a pond or a goose.  He looked all around him, soaking up the scene.

If it weren't for Chewie, I wouldn't have gone to the park today.  Instead, I would have been home working the whole time. He's good for me.

Tomorrow, though, Chewie and I have to hit the books!
