Chester




Chester is a two year old male with a big heart. He tends to keep away from the main hustle and bustle of the Cattery, so you may find him resting in one of the tree houses, or in a quiet corner checking things out from afar. Don’t let his distance fool you…he is a loving cat who enjoys being petted. It might take just a little time before he will venture out into your arms…but with a little patience and a few head scratches, he will be the loving forever friend that you’ve been waiting for!

San Antonio Pets Alive Kitten Ward Needs You!

Looking for a rewarding volunteer experience? San Antonio Pets Alive, a rescue organization, takes kittens from the euthanasia list at Animal Care Services and gives them a second chance. Because of the huge number of abandoned kittens at this time of year, Animal Care Services may euthanize up to 100 kittens in a day. Pets Alive needs all the help they can get to save these babies. There are 140+ kittens in the Marbach Rd. Kitten Unit.

You can support their efforts by volunteering to help feed, clean, cuddle and foster these babies. Many of them require bottle feeding. You can share the experience with your family and children can also bottle feed under parental supervision. Evening volunteers are especially needed – even a couple of hours would make a huge difference and save lives!

If interested, please come to their volunteer orientation session at 6:30pm Wednesday, June 13th, at 9107 Marbach Rd #109.

Contact  bbward@sanantoniopetsalive.org for more information.

Catalina




Catalina is a special grey Tabby. Her beautiful facial markings make her stand out among the crowd. Don't be concerned that the tip of her ear is missing.  She used to be one of the outdoor cats at the Animal Defense League, and that is a sign that she was spayed.  They quickly realized that she was not feral - she rubbed up against all the visitors, looking for some attention.



Catalina is longing for an affectionate home where she can be appreciated and loved. She will make a wonderful addition to your family and will give her love and loyalty in return. View Catalina's profile on the Animal Defense League website, or visit her in person at 11300 Nacogdoches Rd., San Antonio, TX.

She's so Sassy


Sassy is a friendly female tabby, about a year and a half old.  She was a bit shy when she first came to the Animal Defense League, but she is getting used to things now.  She still loves to have her quiet time perched atop a wooden shelf, however when people come to visit, she lets them know how glad she is to see them.  She will rub against your legs and is always happy to have her head scratched.


You can view a video of sassy and read her profile at the Defense League's website.  Or visit her in person at 11300 Nacogdoches Rd., San Antonio, TX. Sassy is spayed, up to date on her vaccinations and has a microchip for identification.
