Rescue:
The P family came from a farm just up the road from the Pet Patrol sanctuary. The barn was home
to a variety of animals, with the kittens growing up amongst them. While this may be a common
way of life on a farm, it certainly wasn’t a safe environment for tiny kittens. Pet Patrol initially
received a call saying there were five babies needing help, but when volunteers arrived, they
quickly discovered eight kittens instead—and only three had been secured. Catching the remaining
five turned into quite the rescue mission! Volunteers found themselves lying on the barn floor
amongst manure, reaching underneath wooden skids, and creatively maneuvering through narrow
spaces between enormous bales of straw. A few of the kittens were also suffering from upper
respiratory and eye infections, something that can quickly become serious for kittens so little. One
by one, all eight were finally secured and brought into care with warm beds, proper medical care,
and full bellies.
Personality:
Pierce is an incredibly sweet, laidback boy who seems completely unfazed by life around him—
perhaps having six sisters has taught him to simply go with the flow! “Floppy” might be the perfect
word to describe this relaxed little guy. He loves stretching out for a nap with his belly in the air and
immediately starts purring when he is picked up for a snuggle. Pierce is also wonderfully patient
with children and is perfectly content to stay nestled in their arms enjoying the attention. Gentle,
easygoing, and affectionate, his sweet personality makes him an absolute pleasure to have around.
Pierce is ready to be adopted into his forever home—one that will welcome him into the family and
keep him safely indoors.
