More Cats and More Adoptions

Shortly after I walked in to my shift at Feline Rescue, I was given the good news that two of the FIV+ cats, Hamburger and Olivia Benson have an adoption pending together! These are the two that when I first met them they were curled up together and I wished that they would be adopted together. If all goes according to plan, it looks like my wish will come true!

I spent some time near the end of my shift petting the two of them, just in case they are not there next week.
"I love that thing Olivia Benson does with her mouth when you pet her," a volunteer told me.
I petted her to see what the volunteer was talking about. Sure enough, she opens and closes her mouth very quickly, almost as if she's kissing the air.

I cleaned out the large, front room with another volunteer, visiting some of the cats I hung out with during my first couple of days there. Mama Lu and her children, Licorice and Tux T, are still there, along with Sadey and Goose. I miss Kia, Junius, Mason and Bryn, but many new cats take their places. A couple of older cats (I can't remember their names) lodge in the bottom left cage. Two young orange and white boys made it very hard to clean. One in particular followed me around and when I was cleaning the cages below, kept patting at my head.

Another new cat, Flax, was a young, sweet girl, already with an adoption pending!

I kept taking breaks from cleaning to pet and play with the cats, but all of the other volunteers must have been productive, since all of the rooms were clean earlier than normal. This gave me a good amount of time to meet some new cats, and snuggle with some familiar favorites.

This was Alexia's last day as one of the volunteers is adopting her!

Tux T found a good place to snuggle.

Cutie (yep, that's her name) enjoying some playtime.

This is Wyatt! He was the cat that the man dropped off three weeks ago. He's very friendly and playful.

Biggie Oliver is a sweet but shy cat.

Of course I gave myself time to snuggle with Ethan.

And Joel!
