Josie

Adopted: 9/19/10 My name is Josie and I am a butterfly! When I came to CAAWS, I was an ugly caterpillar. With a little love, proper food and veterinary care, I was transformed into a beautiful creature. My story is quite dramatic, so prepare yourself. CAAWS received a desperate email about a handicapped lady who was evicted from her trailer and stranded on a street corner with all of her cats in carriers. She claimed we were a rare Angora breed. As a kind Samaritan took the lady in, some CAAWS volunteers stepped up. We were all frightened, filthy and hadn't had proper food in quite some time. None of us were sterilized and we were being bred. I am now healthy, spayed, vaccinated and waiting for my new forever home. CAAWS estimates that I was born in 2007. My brothers have been adopted (Big Jake, Tiger, Parker, Murray, and Ivan). Now just Raspy and I are left. Of all the cats that were rescued in that one event, no one ever thought that we would be the last to find our homes! Because of what I have been through, I am a little shy at first, but I will gradually warm up to new people and a new home. Once I am settled, I am sweet, affectionate, and playful. I would do well in a home with another cat. If you don't have any other pets, please consider adopting Raspy (Petfinder ID# 13049581) along with me. We make a good team, as she is the mischievous entertainer and I am the sweet, quiet one. Please email the CAAWS volunteers and make an appointment to meet me since I don't come to PetSmart often. CAAWS relies on the volunteers who give their time, love and home to our foster animals. If you have a little space in your home and a lot of love in your heart, become a foster parent.
