Story
Meeka had hoped that her home would be forever, but conflicts with the cat in it sent her back to our care. She’s needed to reestablish her faith in human friends, but gentle offerings of treats and comforting words have eased her back to believing a calmer home with older children can put her life on track. As the only pet, this once pensive lady may fully embrace her new family dynamic in a way she’d never known before. If you’d like to be an important part of Meeka’s happiness solution, she’ll likely flip over to show you her belly, her signal to say you’re the one for her! ##2598312##

Story
Rio and Paulo are a pair of four-month-old brothers with endless energy and even bigger hearts. These two spend most of their days chasing each other through tunnels, pouncing, wrestling, and zooming around with each other—and with the resident cats—like a tiny two-kitten circus. Paulo is the braver one at first and will usually be the first to come say hello, especially if there’s a feather toy involved (his absolute favorite). Rio can be a little shy in the beginning, but once he warms up he completely blossoms—he’s incredibly affectionate and has decided that sleeping on the bed every night is simply part of the routine. Both boys are wonderfully sweet and curious. They love side scratches, chin scratches, and ear scratches, and they’re always eager to investigate whatever you’re doing. Whether they’re leaping at each other through tunnels, chasing toys, or curling up nearby after a long play session, Rio and Paulo bring a lot of joy and personality wherever they go. They’re playful, loving little guys who would make a wonderful addition to a home ready for twice the fun. Rio and Paulo are both up to date on shots, FeLV/FIV negative, microchipped, and neutered. Please apply using the following instructions if you are interested in adopting one of our Waggytails: Visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an adoption application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the cat is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable cat, or final size of any of our adoptable kittens. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the cat into our rescue. Adoptions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org ##2680071##
