After losing her lovely cat Hannah a few years ago, it took some time before our daughter could convince her new husband that they needed another feline friend.
When she finally got the okay, which happened with the promise that they would name the poor creature Stir-Fry, there was no question where she would go to find one. A visit to the shelter and a crazy little grey bundle of psychotic energy had a new home and plenty of love.
Giving a homeless kitten the chance for a quality life has always been important to my girl. Having volunteered at the SPCA she understands the need. Her beloved Hannah, who even this dog lover admits was a pretty cool cat, came from a shelter, so there was no reason to think a shelter animal deserves any less consideration than one from a breeder or from a loving home.
June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month. If you’re thinking about getting a pet, keep in mind there are millions of kittens out there right now waiting to be adopted by a loving family.
