Adoption stories

Tyson

I adopted this big ball of fur in January 2018. I asked when you thought his birthday was. You weren’t sure, but thought around November 7th … I replied, that’s my birthday, I’ll take him! He’s the most affectionate, big ball of fur & I couldn’t have asked for a better cat! His name was Cozy. I renamed him Tyson, which means “Feisty” which suits him perfect!!

Milo and Minu

I adopted Minu and ‘john’ now Milo in 2018.
Milo was a love bug, and always wanted attention, while Minu hid under the bed and was always scared.

4 years later, Minu loves getting cuddles, and she demands it! Milo is still the most gentle cat ever.

Milo tolerates and loves kids! Minu is still working on it.

But with all the changes that happened (moving, covid, moving again- they are still bonded and still have each other)

Mia

I met Mia in May 2020 after joining the fostering program. At the time, little did I know that this docile, affectionate, and diabetic cat would steal my heart. After having to return her to Upper Credit Humane Society in August abruptly because of unforeseen life changes, I promised to get her back. Luckily, fulfilling my promise didn’t take long and by Spring 2021, she moved back into my home now 4 hours away. I was happy to see that within no time, Mia made my home, her home. All in all, I can honestly say that for me, meeting and adopting Mia was the best thing to come out of the pandemic 💛

Pretzel formerly Tesla

We got him in the Spring of 2016 and he is certainly not the shy little boy that he was. He is now 6 and is not a purrer as we would have liked but if we don’t go to bed together then he howls loudly at the other one of us. We would not think of giving him up as he is part of our family.

Phoebee (formerly Autumn)

I adopted Phoebee 7 1/2 years ago. I was looking for an older cat and her being 10 years fit the bill, she was perfect. Such a sweet natured, fun loving pet with loads of personality. Her favourite pastime was gazing out the window and watching the world go by. I just loved her to bits. Phoebee’s previous owners had given her up – their loss was my gain!! Unfortunately, Phoebee is no longer. The best decision I made was to take her home with me. Phoebee will be greatly missed!
