132 King Street/High Street Alley (Part III)

Jack O’Reilly’s Tuxedo’s is located on High Street. We thought Jack O’Reilly would be a terrific name for this very handsome tuxedo! Jack is available for adoption – he is the only one of the cats from this location who has yet to be adopted. He is friendly, loves being petted & will roll over for tummy tickles! Additionally, Jack gets along well with other cats. He’s all dressed up & ready to start a new life!!

132 King Street/High Street Alley (Part II)

Many years ago, The Crystal Restaurant was a popular place to eat on High Street. This adorable petite brown tabby with the cute round face is named for this restaurant. Isn’t Crystal adorable? She’ll never again wander the alleys in search of food or a place to sleep. She’s found the ideal home already!



A perfect name for the fine-looking cat pictured here: Weitzenkorn! Friendly, talkative, outgoing . . . Weitzenkorn was adopted almost immediately after being removed from the alley. He is now neutered and will be an indoor-only cat.

132 King Street/High Street Alley

Seven kitties were trapped in this location. Only one went back! This black male was the sole cat who was not friendly.

When Nigel was first spotted in the parking lot, he retreated between two buildings. With a little gentle coaxing, he cautiously ventured out, allowed himself to be touched and started purring. He was able to be placed gently into a carrier and whisked off to start his new life.

We’re assuming this stunning tortie girl is Nigel’s sister. She is the same age as Nigel and, like him, she was already altered. It appears that they were abandoned by their person. Nigel & Gracie have been adopted.

360 New Street (Part II and a special kitty named Chance)

Four older kittens are with another rescue where they will be socialized & offered for adoption. No photos are available.


Also, a beautiful brown tabby female was spayed & returned to her grateful owner who then had her other two females spayed!


Pictured below is an older kitten who was trapped at this location in mid February. He was emaciated, dehydrated & suffering from a severe upper respiratory infection. With no home & no one caring for him, he was literally on death’s doorstep. Had he not been trapped that day, the vet said he may have only had another day or two until he died.
With a few weeks of care, he was given a second chance – and that became his name: Chance




Isn’t he handsome?
He’s also very sweet.









This is what he looks like in his new home! April 2011


360 New Street

Grey & Black Classic Tabby Male returned along with this grey/brown with white Female.








Here is a very beautiful Black Male who went back to his neighborhood.










Two black tuxedo males also went back neutered.

Willow Street Cats

The following cats were recently trapped, neutered & returned to their home in the 700 block of Willow Street where they are lovingly cared for by several neighbors.


The big male pictured below was not a happy camper! He just couldn’t understand that it was impossible to push his way out of the trap!




Here is the adult female – isn’t she pretty?











Eighty percent of orange cats are male. Here’s an exception. What a beautiful kitten! She & her two littermates are completely feral rendering them unadoptable.




HOMECOMING!!


After the cats were spayed, neutered & recovered, several neighbors turned out to see them before they were released! You’d be surprised to learn just how much some people care about the feral cats they’re feeding! They view the cats as their outdoor kitties & have strong affections for them, even though the cats don’t usually allow themselves to be touched.

Lesher between Warren and Adams Streets

The following cats were trapped & released:

Pretty tortie female:



At left - one is a male, the other female. Surprising, the two females pictured here were not pregnant at the time of spaying.
