Rescue:

A woman who lives in a very small village not too far from the sanctuary sometimes finds stray cats
at her back door. One day, she noticed a handsome orange and white boy, and along with him was
a very pregnant cat with four teens (Hank, Hampton, Hopper, and Harrison) in tow. They were
coming out of the cornfield, seeking food and shelter – they were looking for anything that might
help them survive. As the woman put food and fresh water down for them, they ate ravenously.
She immediately noticed how thin they were. The female cat was not showing her friendly side at
the time, but the others quickly came forward for pets and purrs when their bellies were full.
Because of encounters with strays in the past, the woman has a home made for cats in the window
well that looks into her husband’s shop, equipped with a heat lamp and dry bedding. Once the
family of kitties settled in, they came into our care and have thrived ever since.

Personality:

Hank is quite a petite little guy, considering he’s already a year old. He’s a bit shy at first too, as
indoor life is brand new to him. However, he’s already learned that pets from people feel great, so
please give him more! He also loves playing with all the toys he’s never seen before. Hank still
needs time to fully adjust to indoor life over time, so he’d do well if adopted with his brother
Hopper for support – the boys give each other confidence. Hank is ready to be pampered and
shown that being indoors is a safe and wonderful experience in a forever home. One that will welcome them into the family and keep them safely indoors.
