Rescue:

Gertie was brought into Pet Patrol care as a wee kitten.  A woman who is

a great supporter of Pet Patrol had found a mother cat and her four

kittens taking up refuge in her backyard.  At first she only spotted the

mother cat and then eventually the kittens (Gertie being one of them)

started peeking out of their safe place, an all season cat house, to see

the big world outside.  The woman is a tender heart and took good care

of the kittens. She fed them, gave them fresh water and a nice place to

curl up at night where they were protected from all types of weather.

She could not bring herself to rescue them though. Faithful volunteers

of Pet Patrols have rescued many cats over this past year and brought

them safely into our care. They offered to rescue this mother cat and

four kittens and did so within a few days. All are healthy and will become lovely friendly cats

Personality:

Gertie can be a little shy to start but it doesn’t take long for her to start exploring every inch of
the foster home. She enjoys basking in the sun, watching the birds outside the bay window
and playing with the resident cats. She loves the laser light, and will bounce off walls to try and
capture it. She is fine with the calm resident dog. Gertie will greet you with tiny little meows for
attention and treats. Her purr is lovely and deep, especially when brushed, she has a beautiful
coat and will roll around all over the floor enjoying it. Gertie is ready to be adopted into a forever home that is adult only. One that will welcome her into the family and keep her safely
indoors.
