Rescue:
Just before Christmas, a small black mother cat and four ten week old kittens began appearing at a
neighborhood feeding station, coming from an old shed area nearby. Though timid and uncertain at
first, they slowly grew comfortable enough to stay and eat while their caretakers were nearby. The
kittens sometimes allowed gentle touches, but their protective mother—later named Betty—kept
her distance, watching over them carefully. The plan was to gradually gain their trust and rescue
them when the weather improved, but in February it became clear that Betty was pregnant again.
On a cold, foggy day in early March, she was discovered sheltering in a strawfilled box with six
newborn kittens. Knowing the family needed help, the rescuers quickly secured Betty and carefully
gathered her babies, bringing them safely to Pet Patrol. Though understandably upset at first, Betty
immediately settled with her kittens. Now the whole family is warm, safe, and Betty will finally be
spayed so she never has to endure another litter.
Personality:
Binx is the playful troublemaker of the group—in the best way possible! Full of energy and
personality, he loves to jump, pounce, and chase anything that moves, especially his favourite toys
like ping pong balls and fishy toys. He’s always ready for a game and keeps things lively with his
siblings. When he’s not zooming around, Binx enjoys body scratches and belly rubs, happily
soaking up affection. With his funloving spirit and affectionate side, Binx is a joy to have around.
Binx would love to be adopted with his brother Bramble, but would also do well in a home with
another playful feline companion. Binx is ready to be adopted into his forever home. One that will
welcome him into the family and keep him safely indoors.
