I’m Mr. No Name

Many of you will know that cat-lover extraordinaire Patricia Knight died suddenly and very prematurely last month (August 2016).  She had owned nine lovely pet cats.  Several of these cats are being accommodated in Cuddles for the moment, while suitable homes are being sought for them. Homes have already been found for Zoe and Buddy and we at Cuddles have decided to integrate Dolly into our own family.  Ted and Dougal are being very accommodating so far and we are finding the introduction process a lot easier than we imagined. Check back soon for updates on how Dolly is settling in.

We have decided to feature one of Tricia’s cats each day this week and Friday’s cat is “Mr. No Name.  Here is his story…

Mr. No Name had been living with Tricia for at least two years, but nobody knows his name.

For some reason he never boarded at Cuddles with his “brothers and sisters”, but he was definitely a member of the family for at least the past two years. He was obviously much loved as he is healthy, neutered and a friendly boy who loves food and petting in equal measure. As soon as he spots a human approaching he rolls over onto his back for a tummy tickle.

As with Tricia’s other cats, Mr. No Name would be happy to join another cat family as he gets on extremely well with the other cats. However, he would be just as happy to be the only one in a single cat family. All he wants is a snug bed or box to curl up in and as long as the food and cuddles keep coming he will be easily convinced to like a new home.

As with Tricia’s other cats Mr. No Name will need six weeks indoor confinement to adjust to a his new surroundings and home.

Could Mr. No Name be the one for you? If so, please contact Galway Cat Rescue by email at galwaycats@gmail.com or send them a message via Facebook.

Update

Mr No Name has been adopted. He went to his new home on Wednesday 14th September. Lucky Mr No Name and lucky family.

Will you consider me?

My name is Heidi.

Many of you will know that cat-lover extraordinaire Patricia Knight died suddenly and very prematurely last month (August 2016).  She had owned nine lovely pet cats.  Several of these cats are being looked after in Cuddles for the moment, while suitable homes are being sought for them. Homes have already been found for Zoe and Buddy and we at Cuddles have decided to integrate Dolly into our own family.  Ted and Dougal are being very accommodating so far and we are finding the introduction process a lot easier than we imagined. Check out our Facebook page for updates on how Dolly is settling in.

We are featuring one of Tricia’s cats each day this week. Thursday’s cat is Heidi.

Heidi along with Sammy (Wednesday’s cat) were from a TNR (trap, neuter, return) colony of cats from the Riverside area of Galway.  She came to Galway Cat Rescue at 4 months old.  Similarly to Molly and Sally, Tricia offered Heidi and Sammy a foster home and tamed them. A little time passed and Tricia adopted these two as she couldn’t bear to part with them.

Heidi lives up to her name, loving somewhere secure to hide away, but wants to watch what is going on. She is a little shy with new people but once she is around you for a while she will learn to trust you and it is so rewarding in particular to see Heidi relax. Just like Tricia’s other cats, Heidi loves to have the freedom to go out and play and can spend hours outside exploring happily, after which she loves to curl up in a nice secure, warm place.  Heidi has been neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and flea/wormed.  Heidi will take a little time to adjust but with patience and a gentle approach she will relax. She loves under chin and face rubs.  Heidi is used to a quiet house without children but older children would be acceptable. She gets on very well with other cats.

Do you have the purrfect home for Heidi? If so, please contact Galway Cat Rescue by email at galwaycats@gmail.com or send them a message via Facebook.

I’m here too…

My name is Sammy.

Many of you will know that cat-lover extraordinaire Patricia Knight died suddenly and very prematurely earlier this month (August 2016).  She had owned nine lovely pet cats.  Several of these cats are being looked after in Cuddles for the moment, while suitable homes are being sought for them. Homes have already been found for Zoe and Buddy and we at Cuddles have decided to integrate Dolly into our own family.  Ted and Dougal are being very accommodating so far and we are finding the introduction process a lot easier than we imagined.

We are featuring one of Tricia’s cats each day this week. Wednesday’s cat is Sammy.  

Sammy (and Thursday’s cat Heidi) were from a TNR (trap, neuter, return) colony of cats from the Riverside area of Galway.  He came to Galway Cat Rescue at 4 months old.  Similarly to Molly and Sally, Tricia offered Sammy and Heidi a foster home and tamed them. A little time passed and Tricia adopted these two as she couldn’t bear to part with them.

Sammy is a little shy with new people but once he trusts you he will be your best friend.  He has the saddest eyes you’ll see in a cat, though you wouldn’t think so from the photo above. Sammy loves to have the freedom to go out and play and can spend hours outside exploring happily, after which he loves to curl up in a nice warm spot for a nap.  Sammy has been neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and flea/wormed.  Sammy will take a little time to adjust but with patience and a gentle approach he will relax.  Sammy is used to a quiet house without children but older children would be acceptable. He gets on very well with other cats.

Have you a cosy spot in your heart and home for Sammy?  If so, please contact Galway Cat Rescue by email at galwaycats@gmail.com or send them a message via Facebook.
