KITTEN EVA FOUND A HOME WITH KYLE AND JESSICA.
Super Adoption 2004, sponsored by No More Homeless Pets in Sacramento County, was held on Saturday, September 25 and Sunday, September 26 at the Country Club Plaza mall. Folsom Feline Rescue participated in the event both days.
On Saturday, one FFR kitten, Eva, was adopted. On Sunday, FFR brought 11 cats for adoption. By the end of the day, only one cat was left. The other 10 were adopted! Kittens Bentley, Irving, Elani, Raina, Peanut, Frito, Cheeto, and Dorito all found homes. Adults Malory (a/k/a "Knucklehead") and Katalin were adopted as well. The only FFR cat not adopted on Sunday was Sheba, a female adult, who hid under her blanket all day, making it hard for prospective adopters to get to know her. Rumor has it that she is very friendly and usually not at all shy -- but on Sunday she preferred the company of her blanket to that of people.
Several FFR volunteers assisted with the event over the weekend. Christy Drewry, Lynda Bates, Larry Barrows, Pam and Randy Aspinall, and John Bennett were all there to talk to folks looking to adopt a kitty. FFR volunteer Shirley Brown treated everyone to delicious homemade cookies.
The total number of animals (cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits) adopted at the event from all the shelter and rescue groups was 53, and calls continue to come in from people who met animals at the event.
Thank you to the FFR volunteers who worked so hard over the two days of the event, and thank you to the people who came to the event and offered these cats loving homes.
