ROSE

Happy Fall! The calendar might say we are in the "ber" months, but the temperatures are still warm! That means we are still struggling through kitten season. We desperately need to make room to get Moms, kittens and other cats in and fixed before the cold comes. Please consider adopting! And tell your friend to adopt too! We still have lots of kittens and some of our older cats have been here awhile, so there is a cat for everyone!! Remember, <br/>adopting saves TWO cats lives! Adopting one cat will free up a cage so we can help another. Together we can make countless more cats & kittens lives better. Win! Win! The kitties thank you too! <br/><br/><br/>This is Rose! <br/>Rose is a domestic short haired calico spayed female, up to date on her shots, around 5 years old and available for adoption to be an indoor ONLY cat from Griffith Animal Control/Treasured Friends Rescue in Highland Northwest Indiana.<br/><br/>I have a story for you! I was adopted, but my person couldn't care for me anymore, so I'm back at the shelter. <br/>Once upon a time, I was living outside in the cold. It was hard finding food and staying warm. I was always hungry. I finally found a nice human who started feeding me. Then one day I was in a trap and I was brought to the shelter. I've been here almost 3 years. I'm still a little unsure and shy around new people. I like to play and be taken care of but, I think I need some one on one time with one human to develop a real bond. That's just not possible at the shelter, but it would be in a real home. <br/>So how will my story end? <br/><br/>I'm sooooo hoping it's a happy ending. I would like if someone picked me and wanted me! I want to find my person. One who will give me time to settle in and will be patient with me while I get used to my new life. I think if someone wanted to give me a chance, then I would trust them, relax and I could be a kitty again! <br/>I'm waiting for the right person who can give me that. I know that person is out there or I wouldn't have been brought to the shelter for a second chance at a forever home! <br/>That's the ending I'm hoping for! <br/>I am sweet and promise to be a good friend! I'm really hoping to maybe even a lap kitty someday! I have really been loving pets from a few people at the shelter! <br/>I know I'm not a kitten anymore. I know I'll be passed over for being shy AND for being older but I'm still hoping someone is willing to give me a chance. I still want to be loved.<br/>I'm at the shelter, so please come by to see me! I like other kitties, so a home with another kitty (with the proper introduction) would be the best! Since I'm still shy, kitty will help me flourish and show me how kitties have positive interactions with people! However, I dont know if I would like dogs or kids. I've never been around either so not sure if I would like them. A quiet home might be better to help me feel safe.<br/><br/>If you have some patience and are looking for a kitty that really needs a home, I hope you'll consider me! I'll always be there for you and will can be friends forever !! Please make an appointment to come and see me at the shelter to adopt or foster to adopt me today! <br/><br/>Please call 219-922-1766 and leave a message to meet Rose!<br/>Rose will not be a "normal" kitty when you take her home or she might!.She will need time to adjust to her new home. Please consider this in your decision because it would set her back trusting people to be returned. She needs someone who will really be there for her and want to help her feel comfortable and safe. If that is what you are looking for and want the help a kitty that really needs a home, please fill out an adoption. Applications can be found online at TreasuredFriendsRescue.org or follow the link from our profile at Petfinder! <br/><br/>****************************************<br/>Griffith Animal Control, in partnership with Treasured Friends Animal Rescue believes in giving kitties that others wouldn't normally get a chance at getting a forever home, a chance! Our fosters & volunteers work with shy and/or unsocialized kitties everyday to get them used to being pet and to show them no one will hurt them. However, when they go to a new home, some kitties will require extra time to get used to new surroundings and different people. Please consider giving a kittie who might need a little time to get used to a new home, a chance. This is a serious commitment and it sets the kitties back in their level of trust if they are given up after a few weeks or months. Please, only apply if you are an experienced cat owner and have patience. <br/>Thank you!
