Rescue:
Pet Patrol is a well oiled machine in regards to making sure the cats coming into our care are
properly looked after and in some cases, need to regain their health and happiness after
abandonment and turmoil in their little lives. For Tucker, he came from a woman who is on
limited income. She took him into her home with another young cat, a female, but didn’t go
any further than feeding them low grade food and loving them completely. No vaccines, no
spay or neuter surgeries. As would happen, kittens were born and she soon realized that she
was in over her head and unable to support that many cats. She reached out to one of her
friends and together they loaded up the cats she wanted to part with (Tucker and three of the
four kittens) and headed to Pet Patrol. It is preferred that a conversation takes place over the
phone first so that we are prepared for new cats coming into our care, especially five at a
time. Tucker and his little family were welcomed and are all now ready for adoption.
Personality:
Tucker is a sweet boy but very intimidated when he arrived at the sanctuary. We were at the
peak of kitten season and there were a lot of cats in the sanctuary and our foster homes were
full. It was difficult for him to see so many people, volunteers coming in to clean daily, and
visitors as well. His life had been very quiet and sedate. We are looking for an understanding
and gentle home for this lovely boy, where there is more interaction for him, more affection and
TLC. He has shown an interest in toys, gazing out the window and basking in the sun. He has
an amazing glossy coat and bright eyes. Tucker is ready to be adopted into his forever home.
One that will welcome him into the family and keep him safely indoors.
