Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Thelma is a beautiful female kitten who arrived at the HSOV on May 5, 2017 along with her sister (Louise) after they were rescued from beneath a church in Belpre Ohio by HSOV Humane Officers. Another sister (Scarlett) was rescued on May 9th and was reunited with her siblings.
These three little girls were just 5-weeks old at that time and had been brought to the shelter without their mother :( Their mother was still at the church so our Humane Officers set a live trap in hopes that she could be rescued as well. Their mother was never found but, fortunately for the kittens, there was a neutered male (Church) in the trap on May 6th who was brought to our shelter. We originally thought he was their mother, so he was placed with the kittens, and they dearly loved him (and vice versa!). We've affectionately dubbed Church 'Mr. Mom' since he assumed the role of mother to those three tiny kittens. They are still together in a double-wide cage and dong fantastic.
Thelma has a gray tabby short smooth coat with white highlights on her chest/paws, a long tail, and an adorable face with a white muzzle and a cute brown-tipped nose. This little sweetheart has a fun-loving playful personality (thanks to the loving care and socialization she was given by Church/Mr. Mom :)
Thelma was given vaccinations, wormer, and Revolution flea treatment on May 5, 2017 (and has been given booster vaccines). She will be spayed in the near future and available for adoption. We hope that she will find a home with one of her sisters or Church/Mr. Mom.
These updated photos of Thelma were taken on July 1, 2017. Each of the girls were fascinated by that purple/white basket which was great for some fun-filled action pictures~
Thelma was spayed on July 26, 2017 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 4.9 lbs. on that date.
Rescue groups may contact our Feline Rescue Coordinator via email (sharonpaul2@suddenlink.net). We can usually help with transportation and also provide combo testing without charge to rescues/fosters.
