Cats Need a Home! Can You Adopt or Foster?

Alex and Suzy's only person had an accident and had to move to a nursing home, and the two ten-year-old tabbies need to find someone else to love them. Can you adopt them and their person happy?

Two senior kitties lost their person and have been well cared for but living alone in their person's home for a year. Now the home must be sold...

One of the people who has been caring for them for the past year, and knows their person well, sends this message from the two:

Please help us!  We need a new furever home.  Will you be our new mommy or daddy?

Ten years ago was the happiest day of our lives.  My twin brother Alex and I were adopted by our mommy.  She loved us sooooo much.  For over nine years she loved us, showered us with affection and we were the perfect little family.  We were her only children and she was the only mommy we ever knew.

Then one terrible day she fell down the stairs and couldn't get up. She was there for hours.  Finally her cousin found her.  She had to go away to a nursing home and we haven't seen her since...we are so sad, scared, confused and lonely.

Her cousin promised mommy that he would find us a home but every shelter that he has contacted has said no :-(. So for almost a year he comes over every day and makes sure we are ok.  His health is getting worse and now they need to sell the only house we've ever known.

Can we please come live with you? We'll be good, we promise. Mommy said she would pay for us to get updated on our vaccinations and we come with all of our toys, dishes, litter boxes and a bunch of food and treats. Will someone please love us again the way that our mommy did? :-(

Very sincerely,

Suzy and Alex

If you're like me, you can't read this without crying...and this is probably the sixth time I've read it.

Can you provide Suzy and Alex with a loving home? They are a little timid right now since they've been alone so long and it's been very strange, but they are sweet, sweet kitties. And imagine how happy you'd make their mommy, who can never come home to live with them, to know that her two precious fur children are finally in a loving home again! They will be up to date on shots and exams and come with all their stuff.

Ten years old! They have lots of years of love left to give!

If you can help Suzy and Alex, their mommy and their mommy's family, email Carolyn at carolynrychcik@yahoo.com or call Peggy at 412 726 5651.

Please share so that we find a new home for these two! They live near Pittsburgh, PA.
