Rescue:

One of our former foster homes gave Pet Patrol a call about some kittens that she had found.
She and her partner had been doing business at a farm property about 30 minutes outside of
the city. When they arrived in the scorching 30+ degrees heat they discovered kittens sitting
numbly on the lawn. They didn’t know what to do or where to go as the sun barrelled down on
them. This was Licorice and his siblings. They all had colds, eye infections (to the point where
one kitten could not see at all because the infection had sealed his eyes shut). And then there
was a little Lucas who had an extremely ulcerated eye. The wee babies were stumbling
around and stopping in fear and exhaustion. The volunteer gathered up the kittens and knowing there were five in total asked if they could take the last one. The owner of the property
replied “I don’t want you to take all the kittens”. Pet Patrol continues to try and rescue this last
kitten in hopes of saving its life. The four that did come into our care were treated for their
ailments and little Lucas had an eye enucleation the very next day. All have thrived in our care.

Personality:

Latte is very easy to pick up, cuddle, cradle and carry. She will to sit with you while you watch
TV or work on the computer, purring deeply with his person. Like all kittens she is curious and
interested in everything that is going on around her. She will climb up to the top of the cat tree
and watch the volunteers at the sanctuary and takes interest in the other cats and kittens here.
Playing with toys has been such a joy for her, something she has never seen before. She is
having the time of her life. Anything that wiggles, bounces, crinkles or that she can chase is
great fun and she is happy to indulge in the Indy 500 races with her siblings. Latte is a great
little cat and looking forward to being adopted into her forever home. One that will welcome
her into the family and keep her safely indoors.
