Rescue:
A woman who lives on a country property, on the main road, in a small village is used to
having cats migrate to her property. She lives kitty corner to a farm that is overrun with cats.
When you look at this property from the road, all you see is the house and the barn. But as
you move further behind those buildings you see a sea of abandoned trailers, dumpsters,
sheds and scrap metal. There are lots of places for cats and rodents to find shelter and to
keep out of the weather except in the winter time. Then they migrate into the horse stable.
There is an abundance of cats because none have ever been spayed or neutered, or considered
worthy either. When the female cats are due to have their kittens they make their
way across the field and through a small wooded area to the woman’s chicken coop or
shop. As in the case of Shima, the friendliest one the woman has ever had migrate to her
place, who was able to have her kittens in a comfortable bed in a safe environment. Once
the kittens reached six weeks of age they were all brought to Pet Patrol. Now they are
happy and healthy kittens, friendly and ready for adoption.
Personality:
Shima has proven to be a lovely little cat. She has fit into living at the sanctuary without
issue and has made herself right at home. Often she can be found watching the birds and
traffic go by, having no interest in being on the other side of the window. She is a gentle
player and will chase after anything that dangles off the wand toy, and eagerly go after the
elusive red dot. She is gentle and sweet, loves to be pet and receive the love and attention
from the people who care for her. Shima is ready to be adopted into her forever home. One
that will welcome her into the family and keep her safely indoors.
