Bloomfield Hoarding Cats- Happy Update!

A few months back, we sent out a desperate plea for help with the cats rescued from a hoarding house in Bloomfield.  Thankfully all of the cats able to be adopted were rescued by a group effort from several shelters and rescuers, despite groups being filled to capacity.  Our Companions was able to take in two of the cats and we thought you would be interested to find out how they were doing!

Gracie (a gray female) has since been adopted. An instant favorite at our sanctuary, Gracie was a precious little angel who loved to sit in laps and give hugs to the volunteers. It was an inspiration to everyone to see how trusting she had remained after having experienced such difficult hardships in her early life, including the surgical removal of one eye. On the night that Gracie was adopted, a beautiful rainbow appeared across the sky. Gracie has begun a new life with her forever family,  and is already well-adjusted and happy in her new surroundings.

We received a letter from Gracie after she joined her new family.

"I am settling in very nicely in my new home.  I am busy exploring and looking out all of the windows!  I was introduced to my friend Catticus yesterday and after a few hisses we seem to be getting along quite well (even slept on the bed together for a short time– although at opposite ends).  I am hoping we will become good friends and I can leave my sanctuary room for good pretty soon.  I even let Mom clip my nails yesterday!"

Stewart (an orange/male) is now ready for his forever home too. When Stewart first arrived at Our Companions Sanctuary, he required medical attention due to many years of neglect. Now that his health has been restored, he is as happy as can be! Stewart has a sweet and mellow personality, and a loud and loving purr. He loves to be petted, and also enjoys the company of other cats. Looking into his peaceful eyes, you would never know that Stewart had previously lived in such a challenging environment. Stewart will surely provide a calming and unconditionally loving presence in his new home.
