| "White Socks" named by our son! |
We now have a special kitty "White Socks" who greets our customers in the shop!
If you come in for a visit you
will notice we have a new addition to our groom salon who loves to greet our clients. His name is "WHITE SOCKS"
named by our son. This special little kitty had been a stray for about 4 months in our neighborhood and between us and
the neighbors we had been putting food out for the poor little guy and providing an outdoor little house for him to get
in. Our nice neighbors are moving and couldn't take him with and we looked everywhere for months to find a new home
without any luck. In the meantime our son became very attached and named the kitty. I must admit it is the
friendliest cat I've ever known and it really needed to be seen by a vet....so off I went to get shots, wormer, ear mite
meds, eye drops, antibiotics, feline leukemia/parvo tests etc..etc..
Then of all things White Socks ended up in a bad fight with a raccoon over
his food bowl we believe ( a lesson learned by us) not to feed him outdoors anymore. Blood was gushing from his
face and ear so up to the vet we went again. He ended up with two fractured teeth, an injured ear (bit through)
and needing meds again! So to make a long story short "White Socks" got neutered at the same time &
rest of shots etc...and is recovering well. His new home is indoors only and he has become a great addition to our salon
and is one happy kitty now. I guess we have sucker written on our foreheads here because all the strays tend to
come meowing at our door! We can't save them all, but White Socks was a keeper for sure.
We'd like to thank Joe and Debbie our wonderful neighbors who helped pitch in
for the expenses to save this great loving little kitty after his battle with a raccoon.
Occasionally we have more strays hanging around and we can't rescue them all
and unfortunately the pounds are loaded with cats especially and even the no kill cat shelters right now. So if you
desire a rescue kitty please check with us we may know of one that folks in our neighborhood are trying to save and place
in a good home.
