FERAL KITTEN INCOMING! Mookie And Wendel! (Ferals #593-594)

 

Wendel in the front and Mookie's got his six!

Here are two sweet feral boys who are spending a little quality time here at AFAR.

They were trapped after the local car wash called and alerted us that they had been abandoned behind their business.

We have had them for three weeks now and they have been to the veterinarian for their vaccines and tests as well as neutering.

Now we are in the process of socializing them before putting them up for adoption. 

Mookie, the striped one, is the more outgoing of the two and will give you nibbles to remind you that he needs to be pet immediately!

Wendel, the swirly patterned one, is shy but once he gets used to you is a love machine who cannot be pet enough almost like he is making up for lost time.

They are both adorable with personality for days.

Here are some other pictures of the two...

Wendel doing his best impressions of those sad, big-eyed paintings of dogs and cats that were so popular in the 70s!


Mookie practicing his sad, big-eyed look.


We will update when the boys go up for adoption!

FERAL KITTEN INCOMING! Laverne & Squirrelly! (Ferals #591-592)


Check out these two beauties we are fostering right now. They came from a bad situation with no mother to be found in a yard of homeowners who didn't want them there. 

When they got here a month ago they were unable to be touched but they came around quickly and their personalities bloomed. 

Laverne, the short-haired girl, is a goof plain and simple. 

She loves to be sung to and rolls around on the floor showing her belly while being serenaded. 

Her sister Squirrelly, on the other hand, is a DIVA! 

She will sit across the room from you giving you the eye and when you go to pet her she pretends like she doesn't like it... 10 minutes later she is a puddle of purrs.

Here are some pictures of the obviously bonded pair...









If you are interested in adopting either of these to majestic beasts please visit our Petfinder page where they are listed under the names Ella and Dixie

Ames Feline Adoption & Rescue Is Opening Up Shop On Blogger After Hackers Shut Our Facebook Page Down


Hello everyone!

This is the new official site to see all the cats and kittens at Ames Feline Adoption & Rescue's shelter.

We decided to move over to a more secure spot after our Facebook page was hacked and robbed – who robs a cat rescue page???? – after 10 years of posting there.

To top it off the hacker locked us out of our page.

For months we tried to contact the staff at FB through our lawyer but they refused to speak with us and so we cannot regain control of our site.

After five long months, we decided it was time to throw in the towel and start anew.

It's heartbreaking because there were close to 600 stories about the cats and kittens we TNRed (trap, neuter, and release) and adopted out so that is all lost.

In addition, there have been close to 100 cats we have rescued since our page went down that we have not been able to post about.

So here is to fresh starts and the next 600 cats and kittens!
