Three cats adopted this morning!
A guy came in looking for a cat. I assume he had lost one recently, but he said he grew up with cats and the house needed one. He was pretty open to even our rough-looking guys. He visited with MeowMeow (a ridiculous name, eh?), a black long-haired girl that feels like a woolen fleece and loves attention. Then he sat with Big Papa for a while. BP is a black and white guy, intact tom, who just LOOOOOOVES people! Didn't take him long to find the guy's lap and settle in. Then he asked to meet Roger. Roger is really luxurious-feeling tabby/white guy who was adopted but returned due to the adopter's allergy. They really hit it off. If there is a cat with a 140 IQ, it's Roger.
Then an elderly couple came in looking for declawed cats to replace their elderly Persian who died over the weekend. We had two, and they adopted them both! Sable was a blue short-hair and fairly outgoing. Tootsie Roll (who comes up with these names, anyway?) was a tabby van who was extremely timid and had been trapped in a fairly wild area of town. We warned them that TR would want to hide, so they should put her in a room with nothing she could hide under/behind, besides a nest for her. They seemed understanding and experienced.
I've seen whole weeks where 3 cats didn't get adopted.
