Story
These cats were rescued from an outdoor situation after a stray mama had been hanging around my mother's house. The kittens were born around March 9th. Because the kittens spent their first few months outside, some are still a little shy at first, but they are all gentle and have never shown any aggression. With patience, love, and a safe indoor environment, they will continue to grow more confident. This black kitten is still on the timid side, but she has made great progress. When we caught her, she had a large open wound from her chin down her neck. We treated the wound for months but some of the hair is still missing slightly due to scarring. She allows being held and petted and is very gentle. She will need an adopter who is patient and willing to continue socializing her, but she has so much potential to become a loving companion.

Story
These cats were rescued from an outdoor situation after a stray mama had been hanging around my mother's house. The kittens were born around March 9th, and since then, mom has been spayed, and all four kittens have been fixed and received their first rabies vaccination. Everyone is healthy and ready for loving homes. Because the kittens spent their first few months outside, some are still a little shy at first, but they are all gentle and have never shown any aggression. With patience, love, and a safe indoor environment, they will continue to grow more confident. This orange boy is very sweet, but a bit more sensitive. He can get spooked by sudden movements or noises and may run away at first. With patience and a calm home, he warms up and shows his loving side. He would do best with someone who understands shy cats and will let him move at his own pace.

Everyone is healthy and ready for loving homes. Mama is a beautiful tabby girl. Unsure of her age, but she is on the smaller side. She has been spayed and received her rabies shot. She's been through a lot and deserves a calm, loving home of her own. She may need time to adjust, but she's safe, healthy, and ready for a fresh start indoors. She has never shown any aggression, but doesn't enjoy being picked up/held. She will allow me to pick her up sometimes, so she may adjust to this over time. She tends to hide if scared, but she's very sweet and loves making biscuits on soft blankets.

Story
Meet Gracie! This girl is super sweet and has learned that people aren't so bad. Her foster has been working with her to show this sweetheart that getting pet feels good and that no one is going to hurt her. Her foster says there is still a little work to do with Gracie to get her more comfortable. However, if she is lucky enough to find her new person and forever home sooner than later and they will give her the same patience and understanding, she is going to make a wonderful companion. Gracie came to us scared and reactive to noises and people. She would try to get as small as possible and find a place to hide. Now that her foster has been working with her, she comes out of hiding excited to see her foster and ready for her favorite canned food. The person that chooses Gracie would need to understand her needs and love her with patience. It can be difficult for some cats that come into rescue after being in survivial mode most of their life. It take a while for them to learn that they no longer have to be "on guard." She would benefit from a home where it's more quiet with no expectations. It took Gracie about 3 weeks  with her foster to show that she likes pets and attention and realized that her foster wasn't going to hurt her. Given time to acclimate in a new place she'll be greeting you and without a doubt, she will be a wonderful companion.  NOTE: If you are not a serious applicant, DO NOT fill out an application. PAR is a volunteer only rescue and it takes several volunteers to process and respond to each applicant. Our feline's are ready for their forever homes and applicant's that are not serious about adopting can delay them getting adopted or cause them to miss a real opportunity for a home.  Your donation to PAR towards adopting your new feline friend covers the cost of their spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccinations and testing for (FIV) Feline Immunodeficiency Virus and (FeLV) Feline Leukemia Virus, microchip and registration.  ##2272795##
