Janis and Baez loooove each other!

 

Janis and Baez: I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know that Janis and Baez are doing well! They are quite energetic little kitties, who keep me very entertained. ... I was just looking through some pictures and found one that I thought you might like to see. It is of something that happens on a daily basis, but this is one of the first times that I caught it on camera. I think they loooove each other! ( :

 


Chuck and Doll


Chuck and Doll: Just wanted to let you know the cats are doing great! They have made our home theirs, they are very playful and loving...and a lot of company to me..I've enclosed a few new pics.


Mr. Hudson is a gentleman
  Mr Hudson took no time at all adjusting to life at my house... He has been a true gentleman...
He uses the scratching post which is attached to the cat tree in the picture. He has not tried to claw anything inappropriate. In fact when he jumps up on me, I never feel claws. Always soft paws. He and I are filling voids in each others' lives. Thank you HSWA for the work you do and the joy you bring to folks and their felines!

Peppy and Madison
  Peppy: Our new adopted pet, Peppy, is wonderful! Our daughter, Madison, was so surprised when we brought him home... Madison has spoiled him, already. He sleeps with her and has been a joy to take care of. We just wanted to send you a few pictures of his happy homecoming.


Beau loves the couch

  Beau: Hey!! Just wanted to let you know Beau is doing great!! He loves hanging out on the couch and he is a Lap Dog!! Thanks again!


Prissy (L) with her new pal Darci

  Prissy: This pic is of Darci and Prissy playing Sunday. Their faces are so happy - they were just chasing each other around the back yard as fast as they could. I hope all dogs experience the happiness these two had in this picture.

Roscoe gets comfortable
 

Roscoe: [Here is a picture of] Roscoe after his Thanksgiving meal! I think he's comfortable.

 

Ginger: We adopted the BEST puppy from HSWA last fall, and she has been the most wonderful blessing we could have imagined. She is the sweetest dog ever... The only thing she does better than running and playing is cuddling and sleeping. We love her so much and we just wanted to send you all a heartfelt thanks for giving her a second chance, she has truly made our lives so happy!
