  • Tommy is Terrific

    Tommy is Terrific

    Update Feb. 13, 2018 – Tommy is adopted!

    TOMMY KITTY is doing so GREAT in his new home! His new dad, MARCO, says that TOMMY is eating, drinking, pooping & playing! Tommy loves his new LARGE cat tree and seems to be doing great! I am so relieved that he is doing well. I was thinking he would be shy a little longer, but he really is doing just fine & adjusting well! Soon, Tommy will be meeting his new big brother, “Rusty”, who is a 4 yr old super sweet orange tabby kitty! I bet in no time these 2 kitties will be chasing each other up and down the stairs! Marco is doing a wonderful job, however, taking his time before introducing them! I am just so happy for this sweet bob tail kitty and his new family!!! We will surely miss him. He is super cute with his little bob tail that wags and his sweet personality! Best of luck sweet TOMMY!!! We will surely MISS you!

    Tommy’s Story

    Tommy showed up in the middle of a feral colony searching for food.  Who in the world dumped this adorable little bob tailed boy?  He was skinny, skittish and starving!  Luckily, he showed up in the colony of a very caring cat lady that immediately trapped him!  She knew he was young and very out of place.  She took him home, worked on taming him and getting him to trust her and then started looking for a rescue to take him.  Tommy is so adorable being a young gray tabby with a stub tail that he actually wags!!!

     
    I told the rescuer, Pam, that I would take Tommy as soon as I had room and put him on my waiting list.  As soon as I could (last week) I took this little stray kitten into the FURR rescue.  He was a bit scared at first and had really bonded with Pam as his new mommy.  It was sad watching Pam leave him at FURR because he ran to the door after her when she left!  I don’t know who was more pitiful, Tommy or Pam!!!

    Now, TOMMY has made friends with all the kittens in his room.      He is absolutely adorable and is about 5-6 months old.  We are going to find a wonderful and “purrfect” home for this little guy!  He is very very special!!!

    Winnie - Oct 2017
    Winnie – Oct 2017

    DANCING KITTY!!!   This AMAZINGLY sweet kitty starts kneading biscuits as soon as you look at her! Watch her video!

    She is the most gentle, loving cat we have ever had at FURR!  This kitty would be great with other kitties, children, family, etc.   She is extremely special!!! WINNIFURR is only about a year old and was rescued living underneath a church crawl space!  WINNIFURR is ready to go and she also talks when she is happy which is most of the time!  Don’t miss the opportunity to meet this truly amazing kitty!  She has a one of a kind personality!!!

    I had a trap set at the Waxhaw Methodist Church because I had a call last week (late September 2017) about 2 little kittens living underneath the church with NO mama in site. After a short time, I found the MAMA KITTY  in my trap! I took her home and she was screaming, hissing and running back and forth in the trap. I set up a cage in the office and gave her some food and water, turned off the light to help her relax and went back to check on the other trap.  (I had set 2 traps) but, no luck – no kittens.

    When I got back to the lodge, I went in to see the mama kitty and she had cleaned her bowl completely clean.  She seemed to have settled down some. I carefully reached in to get the empty bowl out of there and she did not make a sound.  I started talking to her and she started purring! The look in her eyes changed a bit since an hour or so before and I decided to see if she would let me pet her. Low and behold, she started making biscuits and purring up a storm! She was acting as if she had never been petted in her life and she was LOVING it! She was almost marching.  It was amazing and I was thrilled! I was able to deworm her, put REVOLUTION on her and I gave her some more food!

  • Buggy

    Buggy

    Update September 2017 – Adopted! Check back soon for this story. 

    Buggy is just as sweet as pie!  Watch his video!

    This poor little kitten lived underneath the buggy carts at a Target store eating scraps for TWO weeks before FURR was called. He was SO tiny (about 8 weeks) and SO skinny. No one could catch him but FURR immediately went out and trapped the little guy. He was purring as soon as we got him out of the trap and cuddled him!

    BUGGY has amazing and unusual light blue eyes and he is happy as a lark with anyone that will spend time with him! This kitten will be the epitome of the “great male orange tabby” being called the best cats in the world! He’s gonna be one of those!

  • Twin Kitty & Mrs. Kitty

    Twin Kitty & Mrs. Kitty

    April 2018: Adopted together by a FURR Volunteer!

    I had been struggling for months knowing that after a year in that one room at FURR for Mrs. & Twin kitties, something had to change. It was obvious, by now, that no one was going to adopt the cats together and you talk about “tough love”…….it was breaking my heart to separate them. I also knew that their current life could not continue.

    THEN, I got a text message from PAM (FERN’S MOM) and she told me that after careful thought and consideration, she and Fern were opening up their home and their hearts to the TWIN kitties!!!

    Needless to say, I cried buckets for an entire day and I am just beside myself with joy for these two precious cats! I know that PAM will love them unconditionally and provide a great home for them! PAM is especially gentle, quiet and caring. I could not imagine a better place for the girls to go!

    After FERN in eventually introduced to the twins, I can just imagine PAM’s bed covered with three of the most beautiful long-haired black & white cats FURR has ever had! All three of the cats have the exact same personalities…….a little shy, super sweet, innocent & loving. I think, just like with KATHLEEN’S adoption of Tinker, it is going to be a beautiful match for all!

    The twins will be leaving around the 3rd week in May after PAM returns from a trip to see her family in Ohio. Also, I am making sure that Fern gets her shots to inoculate her for FeLV. After the twins go to PAM’s and stay for about a week in their “safe” room, they will be ready to meet Fern and there will be lots of happy times to come for all!!!

    Their Story
    Watch their video! MRS. KITTY and TWIN KITTY are so sweet and they really love other.  We intend to adopt them out as a pair not only because they are so close, but also because TWIN KITTY is a special needs cat and needs to remain with her sister. They desperately need a home so they can get out of the one small room they are living in. This gorgeous matching pair is only about a year old and waiting to meet you so they can share their lives with someone who loves and cares for them!

    Like all FURR kitties, this kitty is fully vetted with vaccinations and spaying/neutering. The Adoption fee also includes Microchipping to an approved home only.
