Rescue
Pet Patrol received a call from a woman and her husband. They were quite concerned about a cat they has seen, running across a frozen lawn and into a drainage ditch. The cat was frightened, thin and wet. The drainage ditch was no place for him to be, especially since it was minus 25 degrees outside. He was in danger of frost bite, starvation and exposure. The woman was a real estate agent, and she was showing a property nearby. After contacting us, she went back the next day with a live trap, baited with smelly fish, and sat in her car, waiting. However Archie did not show up that day. She was not able to rescue this little cat for a few more days, and we were all very happy when he finally he came in. With frost bite on the tips of his ears and on his paws, it was a good thing he came in. Archie was most appreciative of the good food, warm bed and nice view of the outdoors from the window.

Personality
Archie is a big beautiful black cat, with large green eyes. He has one ear smaller than the other, due to frost bite, but other than that he is handsome and healthy. Archie gets along with the other cats very well, and is quite affectionate with them. He can be seen playing with cat toys and loves the kitty climber. He is still pretty cautious of people, and other than sniffing your palm, he won’t get any closer. He is curious and shows interest in everything you do. Archie will remain with Pet Patrol unless a clean and healthy hobby farm can be found for him. He would do well in an environment that allows him some freedom, feeds him daily, and provides clean water and shelter for him. You never know, one day he night rub up against your legs and happily purr away. In the mean time he is much loved in his foster home.
