Rescue:
Marble’s story as told by his foster: A barn near our house, located on the edge of a small town,
was torn down in the Fall of 2022. The resident barn cats quickly had to find new homes in the
immediate area and one calico female cat, Tawny, took up residence in the forest near our
home. Periodically we would see her, but she would dart out of sight as soon as she realized
she was spotted. In mid-November, she arrived with her five kittens, all about four weeks old at
the time. They quickly took up residence under our neighbour’s deck and eventually caused
the feral outdoor cats to leave their outside shelters. With the weather being wet and cold, we
knew we needed to bring them indoors and allow the heated cat houses to be used for the
cats who needed them. Tawny and her litter were rescued the night before the November snow
fall and were taken safe and sound inside.
Personality:
Marble is a wonderful kitten. He was shy when he was first rescued and stayed close to his
mother. As he got more comfortable, he would play with the various toys around the room. He
loves to wrestle with his siblings and jump into the cat playpen. Marble is sweet and loving and
is always in the company of one of his siblings. He is ready to be adopted into his forever
home with one of his siblings, as he is always the one that starts the “cuddle puddles” at nap
time. One that will welcome him into the family and keep him safely indoors
