Newt and 54 of his friends found homes for the holiday this week!

If you’ve been to the Center lately, you’ve probably seen Newt hanging out in our Living Room with his feline friends. You’ve also probably tried to pet him, and he quickly run away from you. Newt is one of the sweetest cats, but very nervous around crowds and people, which has made him finding a home a bit of a challenge.

A lovely couple came in specifically for Newt on Sunday. They had recently lost their 10-year-old blue-eyed Siamese/Snowshoe mix named Colby and felt like something was missing in their home. They had spotted Newt and his bright eyes on our website and just new that it was fate that they should come in and meet him.

After some help from staff members, they were able to meet Newt and they fell in love. They know they have a long journey ahead of them with Newt being so nervous and shy, but they are up for the challenge. We are so happy for them and this new journey together and hope Newt fills that empty spot that their sweet Colby left.

Thank you to everyone who adopted this past week and gave so many pets new homes. Thank you also to the BISSELL Pet Foundation for partnering with us for the Month of December, helping us find so many pets new homes for the holidays.
