Rescue:
An older couple who live on a country property had contacted Pet Patrol in regards to a female
cat who showed up on their property. She’s friendly and they don’t get too many sociable cats
out there unless they were dropped off. This means people go off the beaten track, and find a
place to abandon their cat. They think that the cat will have a wonderful life living in the country,
however they are then exposed to the elements, predators and starvation. Not all farmers will
welcome yet another cat and food is often very limited. In the case of Kitty Kitty, there were two
large dogs on the property who chase off all cats. The couple secured a safe place for this
little cat and after being fed by them she introduced her two kittens to them. The babies were
very small and defenseless at that time. In seeking out someone to take this pretty black and
white mamma, they heard about Pet Patrol through friends of theirs, and drove the almost one
hour commute to bring them to the sanctuary
Personality:
KittyKitty is an incredible cat. Both because of her petite body – forever the size of a five month old kitten, but also her loving and resilient personality that allowed her to overcome her difficult past. She’s learnt to trust others, play with strings and balls and chase treats on the floor. Her natural curiosity motivates her to explore, wanting to see every corner of your house and knowing everything you are doing. In the morning, KittyKitty waits patiently on your bed for you to wake up, then comes up to you and starts kneading your blanket hoping for pets. She’s a really skilled massage therapist. If you scratch her neck, she will enthusiastically drop her weight on your hand as she just can’t get enough. If you pet along her back, her tail will automatically shoot up along with her rear legs. Throughout the day she is happy to nap around you while you do work, approaching you every once in a while for some love. Winning her over is easy, as she loves food and will sit by her plate, calling you towards her by meowing sweetly. KittyKitty’s ideal home is one where she can be understood and loved, in a relaxed and safe environment, as an only pet or with other calm cats.
