Lily (formerly known as Ashley)

We brought Lily home with us on July 23. We came looking for a tiny kitten but my 6 year old wanted to look at Lily's sister. When the foster mom's notes about Lily's sister said she wouldn't do good with small kids, we decided to look at Lily instead. It was love at first site. She's a little older than we planned but it is just a perfect match. She loves EVERYONE - even my 6 year old picking her up all the time doesn't phase her. She is a bit of a diva - my king size bed is barely room enough for Lily and myself, she's such a bed hog! She is the sweetest kitty. I have never ever had a kitty who purrs as much or as loud as she does. She is very well trained with her litter box and so well adusted to being around people. I am so thankful to her foster mommy for making such a loving enviroment for her - it is obvious in Lily's personality and demeanor that she was loved very much before we found her.

My older son is getting ready to go to college in a few weeks. Having Lily will make the transition easier for my 6 year old who will be missing his big brother. And I'm sure she'll help mom with the transition too!

Thank you, Northwoods Humane Society, for taking sure good care of this baby girl until we found her. Or rather, until she found us!

Berniece

Hi,

We adopted Berniece about a week and and a half ago. She had came in with her mother and brothers and had been in a foster home. She is a great kitten! The foster home did a really good job with her! We changed her name to Wowzy Whiskers. She was very social right away with all of us and loves to play. She is so affectionate and loves to be petted and purrs and purrs. She wasn't sure about the dogs right away. She now has a Golden Retiver mix brother and a Lab mix sister, who have been around a cat their whole life. They got batted and hissed at for a while, but now Wowzy Whiskers curls up with the Lab on the couch and they are really starting to play. I am home all day and have a 4 year old little girl who loves cats, so Wowzy Whiskers gets lots of attention, play time and love.

I really do appreciate how well the foster home did, it was obvious due to how affectionate and how easily she adapted to our house!

Thanks so much for our new kitten, that has now found her forever home!

Nancy and Ashley Fisher
