KARISHMA’S PARTY AND FUNDRAISER

Our friend Karishma, invited us to attend and bring a few dogs along for the afternoon to her birthday party. We were all, of course concerned about the weather for good reason as lets face it we all know it can rain at the drop of a hat .

Well to our amazement it didn’t rain, not for longer than about 4 minutes yay!

We had a laugh with the kids who loved hanging out with the dogs, walking and playing with them. They asked a lot of interesting as well as curious questions which kept us on our toes. The food was delicious, lots of vegetarian nibbles and summer drinks followed by a cake which was to die for! The dogs got a special cake too, nobody was left out at this party!

Over the space of the day I talked about the charity, answered questions and received a positive response. A huge bonus – $29,600 was generosity donated by Karishma’s friends and family. We were stunned by the kindness shown and our cats and dogs

For me the highlight of the day was meeting a little girl who was terrified of the dogs, it was heartbreaking to see such fear in a child. She was standing on a wall, white with fear, completely terrified of Lili my little Poodle.

I spent time with her as did our volunteers and of course Lili and slowly things changed. It was like watching the leaves falling off a tree as she became less and less scared. By the end of the day, she was proudly walking with Lili on the lead, stroking her too. Of course Diva Lili loved every minute of it and was proudly strutting around with her new friend.

Huge thanks to Karishma and of course our amazing volunteers – Andrea, Tammy & Sue – you did us proud ladies! Not forgetting Wally & Boo, Gerda and Diva Lili – great job!

CAT ADOPTIONS FOR OCTOBER 2019

Another month and a few more lucky cats found loving families which is really what it’s all about. I have to say there do seem to be fewer adoptions which is sad, however, we have to just keep plodding on and doing the best we can for our 4 legged friends in need.

So who got lucky this month ?

She was a surprise adoption but like all adoptions very welcome and she’s settled in so quickly. She is enjoying the comforts of a home and all that go with it. I think having another cat helped her a lot too.

Kiki

We got her at the same time and from the same place as Kiki, they stayed together until they were adopted. Kristy had her special day last week and we, like her family, couldn’t be happier.

Kristy

Such a lovely kitten and we hope she’s a keeper as she had the worst possible start, whoever left her in a cage by the road ought to be ashamed, however, she found a great place and a friend who looks almost identical.

Margaret

No surprises there, these 2 were adopted unseen and went to their new home just the other day after their quarantine period and first vaccination was done. This family waited a year for the right little ones and it really is a perfect match.

Mork & Milly

We have some newbies too and lets hope they are s lucky as those above –

4 x breeder cats, all very pretty though a little scared of course as life in the big wide world can be scary when all they’ve known is a small cage for years. They’re in need of loving homes – Nancy, Nicole, Norah, Nana – you can read more on the website.

A cute little ginger boy in need of a home – you can also see him on the website www.kirstenszoo.com or face book KirstensZooCharity or email kirstszoo@hotmail.com

Ninja

Who still needs a home ?

We still have, Sweet Immy, Val, Milo, Maddy, XX & Bb, Mimi & Mindy, India & Iago + Mr Hoppy, Leroy and Pia – all in need of the right person to say ‘Yes, I’d like to adopt that cat’
