We have an #adoptionupdate from Emily who adopted Butterscotch (now Whisky or Ski for short) in July of this year. Emily had been grieving the loss of two cats and had stopped in to donate supplies and give some attention to the special needs cats in particular. Whisky jumped right up and sat next to Emily, and even bonked another cat who got in her way! She did the same thing during another visit, so Emily figured she’d made up her mind.
“She settled in faster than any cat I’ve ever seen. She’s chatty and affectionate and loves visiting when friends come by.
“She loves playing fetch! She’ll carry a little catnip toy up to me and meow and trill until I toss it for her over and over again. She also runs around like wild chasing feather toys, and likes to stretch along with me when I roll out my yoga mat.
“I did a lot of research on caring for FIV+ cats before adopting her, and CCS staff helped dispel the myths. She’s healthy and happy and I’d encourage others to not be scared off by the diagnosis!”
Have you adopted from CCS in the past? We’d love to hear how it’s going!
