I saw these two online and fell in love right away. They are the absolutely sweetest kittens with such big personalities. Callie is my shadow and rarely leaves my side, so she is the perfect work from home companion. Phoebe has really opened up and loves playing with my adult kitties. I often hear them running up and down my carpeted stairs together. CARE was really great through the whole adoption process and I can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of these two and allowing me to add them to my family.
Happy Endings
The sweetest little sibs ever
I lost my sweet dog in June, 2024 and had been so sad without her. She had been my buddy for 12 years. My family and friends encouraged me to get another dog, but I just couldn’t imagine another dog doing doggie behaviors in the house. And then I had the thought of looking for some kitty friends instead. I knew I wanted a pair since I have to work in the office and didn’t want my new friends to be lonely while I’m away. I came across my sweet Juniper’s photo on the CARE website and fell in love. I soon found out she had a sibling and they had been found together at about 10 days old. Her brother, Finn, is just the sweetest baby ever and their foster mom had done such an amazing job caring for them, bottle feeding and socializing them and training them. I feel so lucky to get to be their forever mom. They have brought so much joy to my house and are so funny and loving. I’m so grateful that CARE gave them a second chance at life and took such good care of them. Many thanks to Rose and CARE for the sweetest sibs ever, Juniper and Finn.
Squeaks
We adopted Squeaks after losing our ginger kitty Tiger in February. We followed CARE over the last year as Tiger was declining and wanted to adopt locally. We couldn’t have done better! He is a joy. Sweet, affectionate and loves our dogs. We also adopted a feral from a friend within a day of Squeaks adoption and they are fast friends. Patti took wonderful care of him. She raised a good little kitty. He loves his food, likes to try to nibble my toes and play fight with his adopted sister Mugsy. Should we enlarge our pet family, CARE is where we’ll go! Thanks for all you do! We love our baby!
Midnight’s Adoption Story
We reached out to CARE about adopting Midnight based on his bio. He was described as being a sweet and shy boy, which we thought would be a good fit for our family. We adopted a cat previously from CARE and had a great experience, so we knew that we wanted to adopt through them again.
When we adopted our first cat through CARE, we did a meet and greet first, however with Midnight we were told that he wouldn’t interact with us much on a meet and greet, so moving right to a trial adoption would be best. We agreed and before we knew it Midnight had come to live with us for a trial period. He was very shy at first. He would hide behind objects and wouldn’t come out to visit with us. We would go into his room daily anyway and talk to him to let him know that he was safe with us. Midnight would only come out at night to eat and use his litter box.
Finally, after three weeks, we had a break though and he came out of his hiding spot and allowed me to pet him. After that he started slowly coming out more, though spending most of his time hiding under the couch or bed. After several more weeks, we started to see more of his personality and he was getting along with our other two cats.
He truly is a sweet boy! He loves to cuddle and be petted. But we also learned that he has the cutest meow and is quite vocal. He greets me everyday when I get home from work! He also loves to play. He will carry his toys around the house and is always up for some playtime. He still hides when new people come over and can be a bit skittish when there are loud noises, but now he spends most of his time out in the living area and has become part of the family. Midnight took a lot of time and patience before he felt comfortable, but I find that he was worth the wait and we just love him.
Best “Woods cats” George (Geordi) and Honey (Beverly)
We love having George and Honey be part of our family. Honey (Beverly) adores our Labrador and will snuggle with him. She is definitely not afraid to defend George if Koko chases him. Honey had him hiding in the bathroom for 10 minutes one time with her race car growl. George likes to investigate everything and will hold your hand w/his speckled paw. They love to nap in their pineapple squishmallow bed or sit on the hammock to look out the window! They had a wonderful foster mom who took very good care of them. We are so happy George and Honey are here with us.
My sweet and fun Emy Lou!
After I lost my 11 year old cat, Kiara, I adopted Emy from CARE. She has given me so much love and laughter. She’s so fun and smart! Thank you Patti and John (foster caregivers) for taking care of sweet Emy. I’m so happy to find her, and she couldn’t be more perfect for me.
Trespasser
I was just out on my porch and our feral cat, turned full time lap cat, jumped up to hang out with me for a few minutes. So I thought I’d send an update.
We originally thought he, named Trespasser, was a “she” back in April before I trapped him and had him neutered with CARE. Once I made it back home after the surgery, I let him out of the trap and didn’t see him for three days. When he came back, I fed him and apologized for the ear and testicle clip – Ha Ha! He hasn’t left, although he has taken his sweet time warming up to us. My husband and I have made it a competition to see who he would “love” first. It’s only been a couple weeks since he started jumping up in our laps, but he’s here to stay. He’s still cautious of new people but he’s a human lover now, and quickly shows jealousy with our other two outdoor cats (O’Malley and Luci, also spayed/neutered by CARE).
Here’s a couple pictures of him, he’s a sweet boy that cheeses when he gets head rubs, and we’re working with his claw use because he still doesn’t realize they hurt. We are also trying to warm him up to coming inside, as we would like to give him the option (if he’ll have it) this winter when it gets really cold.
We are a happy and full home (mouse free in a 1900 built house to boot!) because of CARE. Many, many thanks to y’all.
Peachy Keen!
Formerly Sameen, Peach has been an adorable and delightful addition to our little family! She and Cleo are best pals, and spend almost all day cuddling and playing.
