May 25, 2017 Page 5 Purrrfect Companions Pets can get loose or lost through mishaps and travel quickly. Microchip: it works! This week’s kitties (and many others on our website) are all deserving of a home with a family to call their own. Augustus craves and demands attention. He is currently residing at the Kitten Rescue Sanctuary where he is one of the volunteers’ favorites and greets everyone who enters by hanging out near the front door and reaching his paw out to people who pass by. He is a genuine lap cat and very outgoing! Augustus lives with many other cats and gets along well with them, so he could be adopted into a home with other cats or as a single. Augustus is FIV positive from his time on the street. Cats with FIV+ often get passed over because people feel worried about the diagnosis. However, given proper care and attention, an FIV+ cat will live the same lifespan as an FIV negative cat. The disease is extremely hard to transmit from cat to cat and it requires direct blood contact (typically from a deep puncture wound). It is not transmissible to humans. Augustus would make your life complete…give this guy a chance! Tyra came to us from the LA City Shelter system as a nursing mom kitty. Her kittens have both found a wonderful home, so now it’s “Ty’s” turn to find a loving home of her own! Tyra is an expressive, “almost tuxedo” young lady adorned in a black and white peignoir who is more of a lap visitor than a lap cat, as she’s always busy playing and exploring. She is affectionate and very playful, with her favorite toys being a feather wand and ping pong balls. We think Ty was an only kitten early in life who missed the benefit of having another kitty teach her the proper etiquette of play, so Ty is a bit rough when playing. A patient have grown into adventurous, happy young kittens. Venus loves her sister and gets along well with our other cats. Although Venus is affectionate and friendly, she knows when to stand up to the adult cats. This curious kitty loves to sit on the kitchen counter and watch when you are cooking or puttering around. Venus loves to play and her favorite toy is a feather toy on a string--she will do amazing back flips while she tries to catch it. She also loves to run around with her sister like they were a herd of gazelles. It’s cute to hear the pitter patter of eight little feet. Venus and Mandy would love to be adopted together, as they get along beautifully and will be great friends. Mandy is a sweet calico kitten with gold-colored eyes who was hand-raised with her sister Venus since they were two weeks old. She’s completely comfortable around people and is gentle and fun. Mandy has an easygoing personality and a very cute meow, which she uses to manipulate us into giving her treats. She loves to rambunctiously play with her sister. They chase each other and love racing up and down our stairs. Her favorite toy is a pink fuzzy ball that she bats around. Mandy is very tolerant of bathing and understanding adult-only home would be the best environment where Tyra could thrive and provide unconditional love. It takes a special adult to love Tyra. Could you be the one? Looks? Personality? Casey is the total package! He is a darling boy who offers to his humans both a lot of affection and tons of entertainment. Casey loves getting petted and purrs loudly to let you know you are doing a good job petting him. His foster mommy cradles him like a baby, which he enjoys very much too. Casey is energetic and very playful, so he would absolutely love a playmate in his forever home. He gets along well with both boy and girl kitties. People who meet Casey for the first time are very impressed with his striking looks and then are even more impressed with his great personality! Casey is crossing his paws that he will meet you soon! Rudy is a sweet, affectionate and very playful kitty who was kicked out of his house by his 19-year-old owner because she thought he would be happier as a “wild animal.” Rudy wandered the streets for over a week without food or shelter until a nice neighbor found him and called a Kitten Rescue volunteer, who took him in. He is very social and loves people. He gets along with other cats and he tolerates dogs well. Sometimes Rudy can play a little rough-- and so for this reason, he may not be the right fit for families with small children. Sometimes he bites hands lightly when he’s playing. Rudy is a total love bug! Venus is a friendly, sweet and spunky calico kitten with beautiful gold-colored eyes. Venus and her sister Mandy were handraised since they were two weeks old and Augustus Casey Tyra and nail trimming. Unlike her sister, who likes to let everyone know that she doesn’t appreciate baths, Mandy usually just gently mews a couple of times but otherwise relaxes in the tub. Mandy and her sister Venus would be a great addition to your family! These kitties are available for adoption through Kitten Rescue, one of the largest cat rescue groups in Southern California.
