Cat Rescue Dunedin

This very handsome fellow was adopted from us at the end of January. Initially Stanley was feisty and not that interested in being friends with his new family. But they kept him indoors and were patient with him and he slowly started to thaw.

Then, about three weeks ago, he accidentally escaped the house and since then he has turned into the sweetest, snuggly boy. We can only assume he got a fright and realised which side his bread is buttered on!

Thank you for sending us this update Jennifer – Stanley is a lucky boy, even if he wasn't very appreciative to start with!

Transformation Tuesday is here and we have a story to share with you about Walter’s journey from hardship to living life like a king.

He came to us in an extremely poor state, dirty, with a huge abscess on his face (probably from fighting over girls).

But look at him now! He’s fully healed, clean and loving life! His trouble puffs have been removed so now he’s happy to curl up with his feline buddies and has left his street brawling days behind him.

Human interaction, however, remains low on his list of favourite activities. The only hands Walter truly appreciates are those carrying food bowls or dispensing treats. Those hands are tolerated. Briefly. Just don't get carried away and mistake tolerance for friendship. If you overstep his carefully guarded personal space, Walter will swiftly remind you that consent is important—with a slap powerful enough to reset your life choices. He's not feral anymore; he's simply operating as an independent contractor

Can anyone guess why he is named Walter?

These four cuties came to us over the weekend and they would all love some names to go along with their new, much improved lives. If you would like to sponsor one be first to comment ‘sponsor’ on their picture. It’s $50 per kitten and you get naming rights 😊

PLEASE NOTE: Sponsorship is a tax-deductible donation of $50 to CRD towards our costs. Sponsorship entails naming the selected kitten (or cat) and doesn't ensure a preferential adoption position or serve as an adoption deposit.
