Looking For a Buddy? Cat of the Week

Are you looking for a great buddy? Well, look no further!

My name is Buddy Boy and I would love to be your new best buddy. I’m super sweet, affectionate, and love attention.

In fact, I’m so sweet, that I was rescued from a kill shelter because Small Miracles saw just how special I am.

Because I am an adult cat, I’m calm and well behaved. Sure, I’d still love to play, but cuddling and acting cute are my top priorities now.

Stop by Small Miracles today and take your new best Buddy Boy home!

Give This Cat Something to be Thankful For

Original post date: 11/23/11
Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm Alaska and I am an all-American, girl-next-door type of cat. I am sweet, kind, pretty, and fun-loving. Basically, I am the purrfect girl to bring home to meet the parents.

I really do love people. I stand in the table by the door to my room and greet everyone that comes in. Oh, and I just love to have my chin scratched!

Stop by Small Miracles today and bring this all American girl home for this great American holiday. I sure would be thankful!

And did I mention that I love turkey?

ADOPTED: Help These Sisters Stay Together - Still Available!

Original post date: 9/16/2011

Hello! We are the Cat-dashian sisters, Gracie and Jade. We are a dashingly beautiful set of sisters that love being together.

Unlike those reality star Kardashian sisters, we are down to earth, low-maintenance girls with only one request: We need to be adopted together. We couldn’t imagine life without each other.

One of us is shy and the other outgoing, but we are equally as sweet and as soft as can be. We don’t need designer collars or diamond-studded food bowls; a nice lap to cuddle in and head scratches will do. Adopt us and make us the stars of you home.

Please come visit us at Small Miracles Cat Rescue today.

ADOPTED: Small Miracles Saved My Life so You Can Bring me Home

Original Patch.com post date: 8/23/11

I’m Helen and I am a true Small Miracle!

Because I wasn’t spayed, I got pregnant at a young age and had a very serious complication. By the time I arrived at Small Miracles Cat Rescue (SMRC), I had a hernia the size of a baseball. SMRC gave me a life-saving surgery to repair my hernia and then I was nursed back to health by the volunteer staff.

That was a scary time in my life so I am glad I am doing better now. I feel very lucky to be alive!

And boy, was I worth saving! I am a beautiful young girl and my fur is even softer than it looks. I am a total sweetheart and love affection. My beautiful kittens all found homes and even though I will miss them, I am happy for them and look forward to finding my fur-ever home.

Not only do I hope you come visit me at Small Miracles, but I hope my story shows you the importance of spaying or neutering your cat. If you are not able to take me home, you can donate to SMCR to help cover the cost of my expensive, life-saving surgery. Or the surgeries performed on hundreds of other cats here.

ADOPTED: Who Needs Four Legs? Cat of the Week

Hello!

My name is Gabriella. Do you remember Petula, the calico from last week? Well, I was rescued after the same house fire as her. I may not be Patch’s first ever calico (although I’m just as pretty), however, I am Patch’s first cat with only three legs!

Yep, you heard me right. I am missing one of my back legs.

But honestly, looking at me, you would never know there was anything different about me. I’m a big, friendly, fluffy ball of love. I have adapted to life with only three legs so I know I will adapt to life in my new home just fine.

Come in and visit me today at Small Miracles Cat Rescue. Once you hug me you will not want to put me down!

ADOPTED: From a Drainpipe to a Small Miracles: Cat of the Week

Original Patch.com post date: 10/17/11

Hello all! My name is Brynn and boy am I hoping today is my lucky day.

I wasn’t always so lucky. I used to live in an underground drain pipe with my kittens. I really was an amazing mother and protected my kittens with all my might. I slept at the end of the drain pipe with my babies safe inside to protect them from any threats that came by. Can you even believe kids would even try to poke sticks at them?

When my Small Miracles Rescuers came to get me, I wasn’t feral at all. I went right up to them and showed them just how sweet I can be. My babies have all found homes and now it’s my turn.

You think having such a tough life and being such a great mother would have helped me to get a home by now, right? Well, I am Feline Aids positive and that has scared everyone away. I may have even contracted it protecting my kittens. This doesn’t mean that I am any less deserving of a loving home, I can still live a long, happy life. Click here to read more about Feline Aids. Please come to Small Miracles today and take me home.

ADOPTED: Bring Petula Home: Cat of the Week

Hello, my name is Petula! You know what’s cool? I’m the first calico cat to be featured as Patch.com’s cat of the week! That makes me extra special. I also like to think I am the softest cat so far to be featured, but don’t tell the other cats – I’m sure they will have a hissy fit about that.

You know what’s not so cool? Being left behind after a fire. After my house caught on fire, I was left behind and was really scared until Small Miracles took me in. Now that I am in the shelter, I am not scared any more. I am very excited to be adopted and go to my new home. Stop by Small Miracles and take me home today!

ADOPTED: I Just Wanna Have Fun: Cat of the Week

Hello! I’m Bekah. Can you guess why I’m the cat of the week? (Other than my complete cuteness of course.) The volunteer who writes these articles wants me outta here!

Yes, you heard me right, she doesn’t want me here any more.

Maybe it’s because I’m constantly rubbing up against her legs making it difficult for her to walk. Or, it could be because I’m always playing with toys and sliding through the dust piles she just swept up.

My playfulness is quite entertaining you know!

I also insist on helping her clean each cage by walking in and testing the fresh water and food. The other cats don’t care much for that either. Maybe it’s because I make her stop cleaning constantly so she can snuggle me.

If it were up to me, I’d get her full attention; forget about those other cats.

So if you are looking for a very friendly cat that loves to play and cuddle, I just might be the one for you! Stop by Small Miracles today and take me home. Otherwise, I’ll just keep hogging all the attention for myself!

ADOPTED: Looking For a Family: Cat of The Week

Happy winter! My name is Jocasta. Did you see it snow yesterday? It was just so pretty! I love watching the snow fall, but I bet it would be even better to watch sitting in front of a fireplace curled up in your lap!

I’ve been at Small Miracles Cat Rescue since May and really do hope I get my fur-ever home soon. I’m super sweet and oh so pretty! I have beautiful green eyes and the prettiest orange highlights throughout my tabby coat. And my lovely personality far exceeds my pretty fur. I love people and have no problem living with other cats. Please stop by soon and visit me!

ADOPTED: New Year, New Home For Libby: Cat of the Week

Happy New Year! My name is Libby and boy am I glad 2012 is here. Last year, well, it just wasn’t a good year for me.

I was in a wonderful loving home as happy as could be. Then, everything changed. My loving owner had to move into a retirement home and couldn’t take me with him. We were both absolutely devastated. He brought me to Small Miracles because he knew they would help find a good home for me!

We all make New Years resolutions and mine is to find a new loving family!
And sure, I could cut back on the milk and shed a few ounces, but who couldn’t?

Please stop by and visit me soon, I can’t wait to meet you!

ADOPTED: Charming and Tidy: Cat of the Week

Hello there, my name is Madame Frances. How do you do?

My mum raised me to be a lady. I’ve got the best manners in the shelter. I am polite, quiet, and keep my cage very neat and tidy. In fact, I have the cleanest cage in my room and I am proud of that!

Although I would be perfectly happy with any family, I would be the ideal cat for an older person looking for a quiet, yet loving companion.

I hope you’ve found me as charming as my mum did. Now you go talk things over and think about taking me home; I am going to have my afternoon tea.
