Anyone who has volunteered at the Sanctuary in the past year is familiar with our boy Frankie. He joined our feline family on May 29, 2014.
A sweet, lovable, playful and sometimes mischievous boy that you couldn't help but fall in love with.. . . And, everyone did fall in love with his sweet "childlike" behavior.
Unfortunately because he didn't really adhere to the other cats "code of conduct" at the Sanctuary, he had some trouble making feline friends.
Around the beginning of October in 2014 a frightened little girl kitten also joined our family.
Her name was Ashley.
Ashley struggled to adjust to life here and although she grew more comfortable around people, she never really adjusted to human contact.
She did however have a confidence around other cats and was somehow able to put up with Frankie's quirky behavior. Eventually they became such good friends we couldn't bear to separate them. So -we decided they would have to move on to a home as a couple.
So they waited ...and waited...and waited for their forever home to come along. And - finally it has!
A wonderful adopter met them and just fell in love with both of them accepting them unconditionally for who they are. You can't help but smile at that.
So on their last day at the Sanctuary Frankie and Ashley just hung out and relaxed like it was just another day. If only they knew that day how life was going to change for them - and how it was going to get so much better!
Go Frankie and Ashley! Cheers (from our other happy couple Snookey and Mason) and best of luck from your feline friends at the Sanctuary that are still waiting for their homes.
Yes - all good things do come to those who wait!
Congratulations Frankie and Ashley! We lived photographing you too together. Carol Lowbeer, Peaches and Paprika
