News flash from Gradyville: our beloved boy is now off all medications! If we thought Grady was a happy soul before, the tabby love-bug of the lobby has redefined “happy” for us now. The very day that Grady’s hated meds stopped, he was giddier than a 4-year-old at Disney Land.
…Mary has been adopted, after less than 4 months at Tabby’s Place. Now, if ever we thought a cat could be “unadoptable,” Bagheera and his adopter smashed that prejudice last summer. But, by most estimations, wide-eyed Mary came close. Even this sweet pea’s original rescuer predicted, and I quote, “Mary will be a ‘lifer’ at […]
There’s happy news at Tabby’s Place this week: the four sweethearts rescued from the hoarding situation in Chester (the Dessert Kids, Twinkie, Cupcake, Strudel and Trifle) are out of quarantine and in a suite of their own. Now begins the slow, patient work of helping them to learn that humans can love them well, and […]
As John said so well in his special post from London, all of you who care about the Tabby’s Place cats are truly family to us. But, our family is scattered across the miles and oceans, so we like to give you as much of an experience of the feline community here in the non-metropolis […]
Singing the songs of kitty glee? It is the music of the kitties who, today, are Brandy-free. With apologies to Les Miserables for that musical interlude, it’s easy to imagine that you can hear the happy songs of the Suite B cats from oceans away today. It’s all thanks to one elegant tabby, or, rather, […]
While I certainly don’t condone their actions, my heart goes out to animal hoarders who genuinely believe they are helping – even “saving” - the creatures in their care. But it always seems to end in multi-species tragedy, as the hoarder is heartbroken when the animals are taken away, and the animals struggle to recover from […]
The following is a special guest post from John Graham, cat-adorer extraordinaire in London, England. John, everykitty at Tabby’s Place sends big thanks and many purrs for your kindness and your amazing heart! I couldn’t agree more that you and Bets are truly family to every one of us at Tabby’s Place, and we are so […]
OK, OK, so Grady isn’t literally singing (but I promise I’d get video for you if he was). Still, Gene Autry’s hopeful tune is apt for our Grady today, as long as by “saddle” we mean “lobby.” Yep: Grady’s back home in the heart of Tabby’s Place!
I stole the title. But it fits. Oliver Hereford once described a cat as a pygmy lion who loves mice, hates dogs, and patronizes human beings. How true. The title and the description reminded me of Ringo, and no matter how I tried to blog about something else, the passing of Ringo hit me so hard […]
Breaking (but not surprising) news: our most recent adoptee, Jasmine, is doing beautifully. Added bonus: the “black and white widow”‘s courageous adopter is alive and well. 😉
