Happy Holidays! Winter came early this year & so did the cold & snow. We desperately need to make room to get even MORE Moms, kittens and other cats in from the freezing temps & get them fixed, so they don't have to suffer. We get multiple calls for help everyday but can only help more when more we have get homes. Please consider adopting! And tell your friend to adopt too! Our adoption rates have been down so we are hoping everyone wants to give a kitty a home this year! We still have lots of kittens & some of our older cats are hoping for a Christmas miracle...a home! Remember, adopting saves TWO lives! Adopting one cat will free up a cage so we can help another. Together we can provide a wonderful holiday season for cats & kittens by getting them homes!! The kitties thank you too! This is Sesame! Sesame is s a domestic short haired brown tabby neutered male, up to date on his shots, around 3 year old and available for adoption to be an indoor ONLY cat from Griffith Animal Control/Treasured Friends Rescue in Northwest Indiana! Hey! I'm Sesame! I'm a mellow kitty, but I still love to play! I'm soooo happy I was found when I was young and brought in off the streets. I'm getting a little sad that I still haven't found me forever home. I've been waiting over 365 days ( almost a year!) for a home! I know I'm such a lucky boy because I don't have to worry about looking for food, a place to sleep, fighting with other kitties or getting diseases ...So there is more time to playyyy!! The shelter people took good care of me and helped me, but it's time I move into my own forever home!! I love to play with other kitties or by myself! I love batting around toys, trying to catch the red dot and really just having lots of fun! I can be a shy at first but once you get to know me I want lots of love. I really love to be brushed too! I really love playing, getting pets and I think I'm really going to love cuddles too! And I LOVE wet kitty food ! I do love other kitties as long as they don't mind being friends with me (and you properly introduce us!) probably no dogs. Older kids might be okay as long as they are gentle. I'm a good kitty! I'm playful and energetic but I love some downtime with pets too!! Again, I will be a little shy so you'll have to have a little patience with me and give me time to adjust. I really want my own person or even a family and I've been waiting a long time. Hopefully I'm the kitty you're looking for? If you need more convincing come see me at the shelter! I have my own "room" there and we can visit! If you're looking for young adult kitty, please give Sesame the chance he is looking for! Please call 219-922-1766 and leave a message to meet Sesame! Also, please fill out an adoption application which can be found online at TreasuredFriendsRescue.org or follow the link from our profile at Petfinder ( scroll down to the bottom of the main page for the link) ***************************************** Griffith Animal Control, in partnership with Treasured Friends Animal Rescue believes in giving kitties that others wouldn't give a chance, a helping hand at getting a forever home. Our volunteers work with shy and/or unsocialized kitties everyday to gain their trust to show them they are safe and no one will hurt them. However, when the kitties go to a new home, some will require extra time to get used to new surroundings and different people. Please consider giving a kittie who might need a little time to get used to a new home, a chance. This is a serious commitment and it sets the kitties back in their level of trust if they are given up after a few weeks or months. We are always here to help with any questions Please, only apply if you are an experienced cat owner or are willing to provide patience and good forever home. Thank you!
