Urgent Need for a Home for Callie and Cathloua

Callie-and-CathlouaThe Independent Cat Society in Westville, Indiana is a small non-profit cat shelter where, for 38 years, while waiting for homes, kittens and cats have completely relied on the kindness of volunteers for every facet of their physical care and emotional well-being.

Temporarily fostering felines in off-site homes is an extremely significant facet of that volunteerism. While foster cats are waiting for permanent parents, they are socializing, being well-fed, getting veterinary care, associating with people and maybe even co-mingling with other animals. These experiences in family environments make them extraordinarily trusting and adoptable companions.

Such is the case with already spayed Callie and neutered Cathloua. This "Dynamite Duo" live with a kind-hearted gentle man who faithfully volunteered to 'foster parent' them until they were adopted into a permanent home together. The Portage, Indiana resident and these beautiful affectionate, six year old cats bonded so well that Independent Cat Society members called the loving situation a 'Foster Failure,' since they all enjoyed life together for almost five years.

But sadly, it is now urgent that the cats find a home together. Their caretaker, a long-time Independent Cat Society friend and supporter is very ill. He is no longer capable of providing the love, attention and affection the cats have had in his company.

Please find it in your heart to adopt these two beauties. Simply contact Dorothy at the Independent Cat Society (219) 785-4936 or Sue at (219) 733-9512 to make arrangements to meet these wonderful cats. Just ask about the 'Dynamite Duo.'
