Rescue:

Pet Patrol was alerted to a rural property where the number of cats had quietly grown beyond what
one family could manage. After an elderly woman passed away, her daughter inherited the
farmhouse, barn, drive shed, chicken coop, and the many cats her mother had lovingly cared for
over the years. As time went on, it became clear that keeping up with spaying and neutering had
become impossible, and by the time help arrived, there were 12 adult cats and 27 kittens living
throughout the property. While the buildings themselves were a little worn and cluttered, the cats
had managed to create cozy little shelters for themselves amongst the farm equipment, stacked
furniture, boxes, and warm straw scattered through the sheds and coop. A heat lamp in the chicken
coop helped keep many of them warm, and despite their circumstances, the cats were healthy,
friendly, and eager for attention. Volunteers were greeted by affectionate adults weaving around
their legs while tiny kittens peeked out shyly from behind abandoned fridges, stacked lawn chairs,
and hidden corners before slowly venturing out to investigate. They were safely brought into Pet
Patrol’s care, where they could begin their next chapter in loving foster homes.

Personality:

Rudy is a sweet boy who quickly shows his trust by rolling right over for belly rubs. He is very happy
to be indoors and around people, soaking up every bit of attention he can get. Rudy is still
discovering the world of toys, but he’s becoming more and more interested as he learns. He seems
to get along well with other cats and would do great with a playful feline companion. Even better, he
would absolutely love to be adopted alongside his sister, Ryssa, as they would make a wonderful
pair. Rudy is ready to be adopted into his forever home. One that will welcome him into the family
and keep him safely indoors.
