Pippi Longstocking, John Boy, and Annie Oakley - rescued by the Lynchburg Couple

Some sad news to report today. Pippi Longstocking passed over The Rainbow Bridge yesterday, July 26, 2007. AWARE is deeply mourning her loss. Pippi was Annie Oakley's daughter. We are very sorry for the loss of this young kitty gal and wish AWARE our deepest condolences.

Note from AWARE: Here are some pictures of the 3 cats. They had no problem at all adjusting to their new home.

As you can see, Big John (aka John Boy) loves the warm weather we're having today, Sunday, Dec. 10, 2006.

Pippi also likes the warm sun on her. She and her mother Annie also like to hang out in the basement, where there are lots of places to explore and hide.

These 3 kitties are FIV +

AWARE greatly appreciates any contributions to help care for their family of kitties.

John Boy, now Big John, is almost 15 pounds. Dan and I transported them on Tues., Dec. 5, 2006 to Lovingston, VA, where they were very happily accepted by the Lynchburg couple for their cat sanctuary.
The CASPCA is very grateful and lucky to have these wonderful folks who save so many cats. Thank you AWARE.

Update on Jemima Puddleduck (JP) and Cosmo living at the Cat Sanctuary

NOTES FROM THE PEOPLE WHO ADOPTED JP AND COSMO: Jemima Puddleduck (we call her JP) is a young black FIV+ kitty. She is doing great. She stays in the camper during the day and goes outside when it gets dark. She had been meowing at about 3:00 AM for us to let her back in, but now she knows how to use the cat door.
She's eats an awful lot of can food, but still is pretty small. She's having a grand ole time with the other kitties. These are pictures of her above.


Cosmo is slowwwwwly coming around. She wants loving, but then bites you, then wants loving again. She is pictured below and is declawed.

Lynchburg, VA former Purrin' Cats Updates

I am thrilled to be able to post the new photos from the nice couple who adopted our Purrin' cats. It is quite evident that the cats are doing extremely well, and they are loved and appreciated by the kind folks who adopted them.

REX
Rex blended in easily and is right at home. He goes inside and out.

SISTER SYLVIA
Sister Sylvia only shows up at night by Enclosure #2 to eat.

MICKEY

Camper & Enclosure and the Fenced Enclosure

Written by the folks who adopted the cats:

MICKEY AND MURPHY (see the kitty door).

Mickey is always right in the middle of everything, but she doesn't like other cats, so she is always fussing at them. This is normal, and she will eventually get over this. She prefers to be inside for now.

Virginia stays in one of our bedrooms either in the closet or under the bed. She is very relaxed here and loves to be petted.

Update: Sadly, Virginia passed over The Rainbow Bridge. She was very ill, and there was nothing that could be done to save her. Rest in Peace, little Virginia. Know that you were loved very much by the Lynchburg couple in the final days of your life.

Murphy has a number of hiding spots in the basement, but she only comes out and moves around when we're not there. She doesn't let us pet her, but with time she will eventually come around.

Curry has been loose for 9 days now.

She hangs around by Enclosure #2

(where we kept her and Sister Sylvia originally)

and likes to be around the other cats. She is not afraid of us, just cautious.

We kept Angelina and Rayna in Enclosure #1 until yesterday morning.

Angelina checked out the surroundings and some of the other cats before going into the woods. She showed up after it got dark to eat.

Rayna went right into the woods. We will probably see her also in the next couple days.
