Adopt a friend: Kiwi

Adopt a friend: Kiwi

KIWI

Age: 1½ years.

Story: Kiwi is a previous mama from a feral colony that her foster mom took in due to how sweet she was in her feral cat trap. No more babies and no more outside colony cat life. Kiwi constantly wants pets, scratches, and attention. She does okay with other cats as long as they can give her space. She’s not too sure about her foster mom’s large dogs, but if she had her own area to be away from dogs or a tall cat tree, she could adapt.

Fee: $100.

Contact: Southern Arizona Cat Rescue, adoption@sacatrescue.org or 520-200-1643.

LOTI —DSH BROWN TABBY WITH RED

Age: 2 years.

Story: This sweet kitty has striking red markings along with her trademark tabby stripes. She’s quite pretty and would love to chat with you about her day. She gets along with cats quite well, but we’re not sure how she feels about dogs. With the right introduction, she would probably do fine. She’s young, and needs interaction and playtime. She needs wand toys, and jingle balls, and crinkle toys to chase and pounce, and then a loving snuggle from her human after.

Fees: $80.

Contact: The Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter & Sanctuary, 5278 E. 21st St.

Meet: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday; Closed Sunday-Monday.

Adopt a friend: Lulu and Abbey

Adopt a friend: Lulu and Abbey

LULU — DILUTE CALICO DOMESTIC MEDIUMHAIR and ABBEY — DOMESTIC SHORTHAIR TABBY

Age: 2 years.

Story: Lulu and Abbey were very lucky to have been taken in by a nice couple in Tucson, along with several other cats, but when they were moving, these two kitties needed to find a new place. These two lovely ladies are adorable and so affectionate towards each other. Abbey really depends on Lulu for security so that is why they are a package deal. Lulu does this funny thing where she sometimes hiss instead of purr. Weird, we know but we think she never learned which one to do. Lulu loves people and her sister is getting better as long as she is with Lulu. If you can take two great girls into your family, Lulu and Abbey are worth it and will reward you with love and affection. Adoption qualifications required.

Fee: In April at Paws Patrol all adoption fees are 50% off all cats that are one year or older. Adoption fee is now $40 for the pair, Lulu and Abbey. Includes microchip, neutering and current shots.

Contact: Paws Patrol, Green Valley, AZ. 520-207-4024. www.greenvalleypawspatrol.org.

Meet: By appointment, give us a call.
