Happy New Year! New Year, but cats and kittens still need homes! Kitten Season will start again soon (it never really ends!) and we need to make room to get Moms and kittens in, fixed and get them into forever homes! Please consider adopting- especially some of our older residents! Maybe even two? Remember you save TWO cats lives and make countless more cats & kittens lives better by adopting! When you adopt one cat, it makes room to save another! Win! Win! The kitties thank you too! This is Tinsel! Tinsel is a domestic short haired Black & white tuxedo, spayed female, up to date on her shots and approximately one year old. Tinsel is available for adoption to be an indoor ONLY cat from Griffith Animal Control/Treasured Friends Rescue in Northwest Indiana. Hi! My name is Tinsel! I'm another mom cat who was helped by so many kind people this year during a very busy kitten season! And thank you! I don't know how I would have taken care of myself, let alone all my kittens if I was still outside! Somehow my kittens and I hit the kitty lottery and we are doing so good now! My kittens are getting older and will find homes soon. But now it's my time to find a forever home! I've been lucky so far, and I hope my good luck holds out until I find my forever home! I’m a sweet, friendly girl with a heart full of purrs just waiting for the right person to claim them. My days of being a mama are officially behind me, and let me tell you—I am loving my 'retirement!' I’m a kitten at heart and now that my duties are done, I’m ready to make up for lost time. I’m looking for a home where I can perfect my pouncing skills on toy mice and show off my expert feather-wand-chasing abilities. But don't let my playful side fool you! I’m also a gold-medal snuggle expert! Once the toys are put away, nothing makes me happier than soft head bumps and a warm lap. With a little patience and a lot of love, I know I’ll blossom into the best friend you’ve ever had. My bags are packed! I just need your couch and a sunny window for a purrrrfect forever home!! If you're looking for a playful, sweet girl to brighten your life, please come meet me! I'm good with other kitties (with slow introductions, of course) so if you already have a kitty, I can be their friend! Older kids that are gentle are okay too! Probably no dogs though. I'm ready to trade my cage for for a loving family, and my days of waiting for a lifetime of happiness with you! If you're looking for a younger cat that's still a kitten, Tinsel would love to meet you! Please call 219-922-1766 and leave a message to set up a meet and greet with Tinsel. Also, please fill out an adoption application, which can be found online at TreasuredFriendsRescue.org or through the link on our Petfinder profile.(scroll all the way to the bottom for the link to the application!) ***************************************** 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!
