Happily Homed: Gremlin (Twinkle)

Beth Dokolasa

We have an #adoptionupdate from Terra who adopted Twinkle (now Gremlin) this past June! Terra had been looking online and saw some good candidates but chose Gremlin because of how friendly and affectionate he was. 

“He has settled in amazingly, he loves his cat scratchers and loves to play fetch! It’s so funny to see him chasing after his Kong, if you ignore him and don’t throw it again he will bite your hand, so we are working on patience manners!

Kitten Season is Here

And it’s not as cute as you think! Kittens require intensive care and are highly vulnerable to illness, placing major strain on shelter resources.
