Rescue
Pet Patrol was notified of three little kittens that had been left on a disabled woman’s front porch. They were initially found in a pot, similar to one you would put a plant in, when they were quite young. More than likely someone put the kittens there, being unwanted and easily disposed of, and thought this woman would take them in. As the kittens emerged and started crying, the woman’s friend who cares daily for the woman, began feeding them. She tried to pick them up and pet them, but the kittens were easily frightened and so she did not handle them further or bring them into the house for safety. Precious time for socialising was lost. As winter set in the kittens had no choice but to burrow under the porch for shelter. As the weather worsened and the snow threatened to block them in under the porch, the friend thought it was time for them to be rescue. All came into our care and are happy to be inside.

Personality
When cats are found on the streets, especially kittens, it is very important to bring them inside as soon as possible. As more time ticks away that they are exposed to the dangers and fears of the street, the more time it takes to tame them. They are not sure who to trust so people have to earn their trust. It just takes time. Bunny was the last of the three to adjust to people, basically through the power of canned cat food. She is still timid and would require someone with patience and understanding to help her adjust to her new environment. Bunny does very well with other cats and likes to have a playmate. She is looking for a forever home. One that will help her feel at home and keep her safely indoors.
