Rescue:
Koopa and his siblings first came to Pet Patrol’s attention when one of our volunteers received a
message from a neighbour in her community. Kittens had been spotted at a local feed mill, and the
woman believed there were four of them coming out in search of food. Unfortunately, she was
leaving for her cottage and wasn’t able to stay and help, so our volunteer contacted the feed mill
directly. The staff had no idea the kittens were living on the property but happily gave us permission
to come out and rescue them. Armed with humane traps and carriers, volunteers headed to the mill,
where a couple of workers mentioned seeing the kittens hiding beneath the dumpster and storage
containers. The traps were set, and before long two little kittens were safely inside. They were
reset, and much to everyone’s surprise, three more appeared—there weren’t four kittens after all,
but five! Koopa and his siblings, Kazoo, Kalypso, Kestrel, and Kova, were all safely rescued. No
more hiding beneath dumpsters or searching a feed mill for their next meal—Koopa is now safe in
Pet Patrol’s care and will have the chance to know the comfort and security of a loving indoor
home.
Personality:
Koopa is a funloving, charming boy whose playful antics are sure to keep his family laughing.
Curious about absolutely everything, he is always eager to explore, investigate, and join his
brothers for some raucous kitten fun. His favourite toys include wand toys with strings and little
stuffed mice that he can chase around. Once he has finally worn himself out, Koopa’s affectionate
side takes over. He loves attention, enjoys cuddling in a lap, and will happily run to greet his people
when they enter the room. If he happens to be snoozing, those pleading little eyes will beckon you
over for some gentle pets while he sleeppurrs contentedly. Koopa is still getting comfortable with
being held, but his love of affection continues to grow. His very best buddy is his brother Kazoo,
and these two would be happiest finding their forever home together. Koopa is ready to be adopted
into his forever home—one that will welcome him into the family and keep him safely indoors.
