Rescue:

A woman who had brought a few cats to us this year, had another rescue for us. She knew an
older man who lived just outside of the city and he had a property with a lot of cats living there.
He had dogs too, and according to the woman he fed and treated them a lot better than the
cats. The dogs were allowed in the house and to roam the yard. The cats were strictly outdoor
and their only shelter was a cramped shed. All year round the cats resided in this rustic building that held storage items and lawn care equipment. Not exactly home sweet home! She has
taken a number of the cats home, but there always seemed to be more whenever she revisited the property. None of the cats were spayed or neutered. Eventually the man was reported
and the cats were rescued and re homed. Now we just have pretty little R, and her four daughters. They are very grateful to be rescued and to have a safe, clean and cat friendly family
taking care of them.

Personality:

Raya has fully embraced her indoor life. She loves to sleep on her foster mom’s bed, or by the
back door in a spot of sunshine. She can often be found carrying around pom pom toys, but
more recently has become obsessed with one of the resident dog’s tennis balls. Now that her
kittens are weaned and off to their new homes, she has developed a happy coexistence with
the dog, both able to share space to sleep on the bed. She’s becoming a pro at chasing the
laser pointer and just playing like a young and active cat rather than a mom protecting and
raising her kittens. Raya is beautiful and has a great family cat personality. She is ready to be
adopted into her forever home. One that will welcome her into the family and keep her safely
indoors.
