We have good news! Jean Grey has found her forever home! Last week a wonderful family adopted her. Jean Grey first arrived at the shelter as a kitten on September 25th of last year with quite a few of her siblings. Her brothers and sisters found new homes very quickly, however Jean Grey was timid and ended up being overlooked over and over again. Jean Grey grew up in our kitten room and when she was big enough moved in with the adult cats. She made lots of feline friends but was never quite sure of humans.

Hooray for Mr. Whiskers!!

It was a very sad day in February when a family came in having to give up their beloved cat. They were devastated (it was a severe health issue of the family members). They had tons of kitty things for him, brushes, cat poles, food, toys and a leash and harness. He was a little chubby and had quite the personality, obviously a very well loved little man!
