Help Our Adult Homeless Cats Get Adopted! Paw it Forward …

October 4, 2015 / Jennie Richards / News
Sisters CoCo and Chanel

WELCOME to our new 6-part “PAW IT FORWARD” series, courtesy of the award-winning blog Savannah’s Paw Tracks! This blog will be devoting the next several issues to Community Concern for Cats to help us get the most critical backlog in our current foster care system—the Adult Homeless Foster Cats, adopted!

So JOIN US in following this wonderful series, and help us to get our adult cats adopted into new forever homes! Here’s our intro to get you started!

Our first cats that Paw It Forward is introducing are sisters, Coco and Chanel. Meet them here in their own personal video.

Here’s a sneak peak at Paw It Forward’s interview with Coco and Chanel!

Coco & Chanel

Savannah: “Hiya Coco and Chanel! I am just tickled gray and white to be able to have a chat with you both about your current circumstances as Adult Homeless Foster cats.”

Chanel: “Well, first, Savannah…we are tickled black (that’s Coco who is an all-black panther girl) and black and white (that’s me, because I am a Tuxedo lady) to get to have this interview with you.

And yes, we are currently in what humans’ refer to as ‘a foster home’. That means, at least to us, that we have a human who will protect us for as long as they can and feed us and give us as much attention as they are able given that they always have other adult cats, even kittens, to care for as well. But this is not our true forever home.”

Savannah: “Ladies, are you telling me that this is just a ‘temp’ place for you? It sounds like you are sort’ a like houseguests.”

Coco: “Exactly Savvy, that’s it. Don’t get us wrong, the lady here is very nice. She brought us and 3 Mom Cats with their kittens to her home. All in all there were 21 of us counting the three litters of kittens.” Cat CoCo

Chanel: *interrupts Coco and starts talking* “Let me tell this part Coco…*Coco rolls her eyes*…before we came here, we were kind of ‘camping out’ in the property of a much older human lady. She didn’t know how to care for us really well, but she did try to feed us.

And then the kittens started arriving. Thankfully Coco and I were trapped and spayed before we ever had kittens. The older lady finally allowed her neighbor, the nice woman who is our foster, to ask a rescue called Community Concern 4 Cats (CC4C) to come on her property and trap all of us…kittens and adults. We all were given our vaccines, wormed, tested for FIV and of course, spayed.”

Savannah: *leans over and gives each a soft paw pat* “I heard you; you have meals and a warm dry place to live. But it isn’t the same as being able to go around and mark everything with your cheek scent to claim it as your very own.” Coco Cat Up for Adoption

Coco: *Coco looks at Chanel; both get pink cheeks* “Coco speaks first; “Savvy, we know we are lucky to be in this nice foster home. The lady even built this very nice catio so we can go outdoors and still be safe and get lots of fresh air whiffies and whatnot. But as you said, we are still homeless because we cannot stay here forever.
