A new ARF kitty!

1393F - "Tia"
Last weekend, three new kitties made their way to ARF, another should arrive early this week. The first one is Tia, a gorgeous ten-month old medium-hair tortoise shell. She is radiant and very affectionate. She loves to curl up with her foster sister, Sassy, and she loves to get belly rubs from her foster mom. She had some matted fur when she came in so she'll need regular grooming to keep her looking her best. I just love her and wish I was fostering her!!

Finnigan is verrrrrrrrrrrry comfortable here...

...but he'll settle into his forever home easily too. He's big on personality and would be quite content as the only animal in a house, as long as he was getting lots of attention from 'his people.' He loves 'his people!' He lives with dogs and other cats. He is mostly indifferent to the cats. He doesn't mind dogs either and he could take them or leave them, but he's content to sleep on 'his peoples' bed' even if 'his peoples' bed' also has dogs on it!

Sim-Sim is coming out of his shell

Sim-Sim is a long, lean cat, but he is pretty skinny at only 7.4lbs. He was very shy when he first came to our place, but he's venturing out more and more; sometimes we find him on the top of the cat post in the living room, sometimes on the couch or even wandering around the living room. I've fallen in love with this shy guy - it makes me so happy to see him becoming more and more comfortable in our house. It's so entertaining to watch him play like a kitten with the twitchy tail or some of the cat nip toys.

**Update on the kittens** Cameo (calico), Aspen (orange) and Shiloh (tabby) are now ready for adoption and they should be on the website very soon! Two sweet little black kitties just came in today from rural Alberta, along with an older kitten/young adult, a beautiful Tortie with medium-length hair. She'll be available very soon. She has the most beautiful coat.

Finnigan has made himself at home...

He curls up just about anywhere... and loves to curl up with his people. I was working on the computer on the couch when he curled up like this (he started on my lap making it difficult to type). He is 100% purrs and snuggles, so if you're looking for a super friendly, confident and dog-friendly cat, this is your guy!
