February | 2015 | Hyde Park Cats

This week we welcomed the handsome and friendly Tippy Canoe into our adoption program.

As you can see from his left ear tip, Tippy Canoe was originally vetted as a TNR (trap-neuter-return) cat. That was over a year ago.

He was recently found as a single friendly cat. He was scanned for a chip and we discovered that he hailed from a colony nearly 4 miles away from where he recently appeared.

Tippy Canoe’s finder Al thought he was too friendly to stay outside, so with the permission of his former colony keeper, we admitted him to our adoption program. Al took him for his second round of vetting where we got him snap tested again and updated his shots.

Tina stepped up at short notice as an emergency fosterer and you can see from his glamour shots how glad he is to be inside with her.

Thanks to Kim who brought all the moving parts together. Welcome aboard Tippy Canoe! We wish you smooth sailing from here on in.

: Justin Case

Justin Case is a handsome tabby estimated to be about 5 years old. He is difficult to photograph because he wants to cuddle and be pet!

His fosterers write that Justin is very well-behaved and affectionate and loves nothing more than sitting in your lap while peacefully purring. Justin responds to calls and will quickly come to you the moment you call him and jump up next to you. He is quite talkative, meowing softly whenever he sees you. He has handsome tabby stripes but our favorite features are his round, soulful eyes. He loves company and we think he would do well with children or anyone that wants a loyal, gentle companion.
