I started volunteering at the Seekonk Animal Shelter back in December. I've always wanted to save the kitties - one kitty at a time. But since my husband put the kay-bash on my kitty-saving efforts after two kitties, I must devise a different plan for saving them!
This is a new series I plan on continuing as long as there are cats available for adoption at the Seekonk Shelter. Although called Caturday, it will also include dogs available for adoption too.
Owning a pet is an expensive endeavor. They're like children - you need to feed them, toilet them, take them to the doctor's, buy them toys.... it all adds up. So why on earth would someone want to dole out more money by buying a pet when you can get great pets through adoption!?
This is an awesome article about the benefits of adopting adult cats and is totally worth 5 minutes of your time.
And this week's Caturday is dedicated to Mike.
UPDATE: Mike has been adopted as of 3/19/15!!! Yay!!
Mike is my manly, regal-looking buddy. He is a 4-year old domestic short haired black kitty. He was found as a stray chillaxing with a feral colony. However, it's believed he was abandoned because he is super friendly. He is a typical lap-cat who loves to be pet. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and has been microchipped.
His easy-going personality allows him to get along with other cats well. He's very laid back. And did I mention he's such a manly, rugged fellow? I just love him to pieces!
He does have colitis, so he'll need to be kept on a low-residue diet, but it can be purchased from any pet store.
A wonderful fellow volunteer at the shelter has sponsored Mike, so his entire adoption fee has been paid for. How can you possibly say no to this handsome dude?!
If you're interested in adopting Mike, or any other animal from the Seekonk Animal Shelter, here is the application for adoption.
Don't shop, Adopt!
