Adoption success stories
/We always love hearing how Regina Cat Rescue cats are faring in their forever homes, and wanted to share some of the updates with you! Here's the latest from adopters of RCR cats and kittens.
Wendell (now Pinot) was rescued along with his mom as a tiny, teeny two-week-old kitten in August, but he's sure grown up now!
Richie (now Prosecco) was rescued as a eight-week-old kitten from under a condo building. Fostered along with Wendell, the pair were adopted together.
Araya was rescued in 2014 with chemical burns on her body and in obvious pain. Following treatment and lots of love, Araya isn't feeling anything but the festive spirit in her forever home!
Rufus (now Dudley) was found as a shy stray cat this summer. He was afraid and nervous at first but with patience and lots of food, he learned to trust humans. Now he's living the good life indoors with his forever person.
Margot (now Stella) is a sibling of Richie and was rescued from under a building in the General Hospital area this summer. Looks like this silly girl enjoyed the holidays in her forever home!
Cody (now Oculus Sinister aka Ollie) was rescued in rough shape from a suspected dog attack. Eventually he had to have an eye removed because of the damage. But he's living the good life now and his guardian says he's been a great addition to her life!
Sweetie had her front leg amputated after getting it caught up in a motor. But she's doing great in forever home, and as you can see, the trauma didn't stop her from getting in the holiday spirit!
Zima and Jacy (now Marjory) ended up being adopted by the same family just a few weeks apart, and they're doing great in their forever home together! According to their guardian, one of Zima's favourite activities is watching Marjory being goofy - sounds like a great duo!
Susan (now Sassy) was rescued along with her siblings Cheeto and Lucy this spring. She was adopted in July and since then this cutie has settled into her forever home and enjoys playing, snuggling with the other kitties and curling on her daddy's lap.
Emma was trapped in 2014 and named for the Leader-Post reporter Emma Graney who was on a ride along with feral team volunteers as they tried to trap the young kitten. Eventually she was caught, socialized, adopted and is now enjoying life indoors at her home.
Cheeto (now Milo) and Lucy (now Stella) were two of five kittens rescued from a wood pile this spring. Their mom was feral so they were scooped up to be socialized so they could be adopted into loving homes and avoid a life on the streets. Milo and Stella were adopted together and are now inseparable buds in their forever home!
Matilda came into RCR care after she had kittens. Her rescuer was able to find homes for all of Matilda's litter but was unable find anyone who wanted this friendly, loving mom cat. RCR took her into foster care, had her spayed and thankfully found her a loving forever home where she has made fast friends with Charlie, the resident pup.
Smokey had the terrible misfortune of being abandoned not once but twice in his life. But he doesn't have to worry about that happening a third time! Smokey celebrated his one year adoption-versary in October 2015 with his true forever family.
