Update on Mr. Fish Stick!!!!🐈🐈 🙏🎊🙌Just a little over a week ago, this sweet kitten was found with a significant wound to his belly and had a difficult time bearing weight in his rear legs. He most likely had a run in with a dog that left him the “undercat.” We sewed him up, started him on antibiotics, and provided cage rest to heal his broken pelvis. Now this little hero is running around as if nothing ever happened – batting around his collection of stuffed mice, basking in the sunshine, and eating like a champion. There’s a reason for the adage that CATS HAVE NINE LIVES!!! Fish Stick wasn’t about to “disappoint.”

🎀 PET OF THE WEEK 🎀
The perfect name for such a pretty kitty! Meet Bella: a mother, a survivor and most importantly, a lover. 💓 This young lady was rescued with her five kittens by a friend of SNIPSA. With her babies still tiny at the time, she spent her first few weeks in rescue nursing and teaching them all the ways of the gato. 🐈 Now, everyone is old enough to start looking for their forever homes, and mama is no exception! Despite her unsteady past, this girl’s confidence would make her an easy fit for any home. Bella is incredibly social, curious and easygoing. She is quiet by nature, but don’t let that fool you! She will stick to you like glue when she isn’t birdwatching through the window or napping away in a cozy spot. 💤 This kitty loves attention and has a very flirty personality, asking for pets at every opportunity. She is an expert at running her motor, rolling over for belly rubs and cuddling up with her humans. Additionally, she adapts well to new situations and would make for a great traveling companion. 🚙 If you’re looking for a well-rounded, striking cat who already knows her manners, Bella would be the perfect match for you. Apply today and fall in love! 😻
