Paige's life gets even better. Now she has children to love too!

Friday, August 24, 2007

This is a very heart warming story from someone who adopted a cat named "Paige" from one of our volunteers 7 years ago. Paige used to live in an apt. until her "owner" moved and left her behind. She was about 8 months old, homeless and to make matters worse, she was pregnant! Most cats who end up in that situation do not have happy ending stories. All to many times these cats will have a litter outside with no one to care for them and no one to socialize the kittens. The kittens will go on to breed and often this is how a "feral" colony gets started. Lucky for Paige, she was rescued and has gone on to a wonderful life. 7 years later, we received an e-mail from Paige's family and an update on her wonderful family life. LETTER: It was good hearing from you, and congratulations on your new rescue group!

We bought Paige a house a little over 5 years ago. It has lots of windows that face the backyard, so she loves to bird watch all day! We also adopted 2 children who she loves to play with and has also given her a new place to sleep!

Paige was such an important part of our children's transition into our home. We told our kids her story- about how she was abandoned, fostered, and then adopted. My son pointed out that he and Paige share the same life story. After he realized this, he really felt a special connection to her. I've attached a picture of them. They adore each other!

Thanks again for giving us our Paige!
