Update on the Holly Tree Fundraiser—Funds Still
Needed!
This stunning black and white kitty is one easy-going girl. She is
an indoor/outdoor cat and loves to spend her days lying in the grass
dozing or chasing squirrels. She's the first one to join her foster
mom when it's time to walk to the mailbox in the afternoons, and loves
walks in the woods and climbing trees. Katrina gets along well with
the other feline members of the household, and
has lived with a dog in the past. She is very adaptable to a new environment,
but would not be happy as a totally indoor cat. She is spayed and current
on all vaccinations. For adoption, contact C.A.R.E. at www.chathamanimalrescue.org
or 542-5757.
At
2-3 months old and with her black and orange mottled coat, Simba
is as darling as can be. She is a purr-box who loves attention and
cuddling. To meet Simba and her other feline and canine shelter companions
who so urgently need homes, visit CCAS on Landfill
Rd. off 64 west. Open Mon.-Fri., 9am-4pm, and Sat.10 am-2 pm. For
more information, call 542-7203.
