Since it is kitten time at the WCAS, the adoption rate for older or adult cats has declined. Fortunately, 2 cats, one older kitten and one baby kitten have all found homes within the last two weeks. This is very good news considering the shelter experienced a severe Pan Leuk epidemic over the last couple of weeks which wiped out a solid majority of healthy kittens and cats. The epidemic also prevented dozens of families from adopting. The lucky winners this week are the following: Diana who has been in the shelter since May 9th, 2011; Chicago who has been a friendly feline inhabitant since April 26th, 2011; Lucy- one of the older kittens has been located at the shelter since May 24th, 2011 and little baby Leonardo who has also only been at the shelter since May 24th, 2011. They have all been photographed and are shown in chronological order. One important fact I must note is that WCAS makes it a priority to release their critters to suitable, loving families. Please admire.

| This is WCAS's most windy kitty Chicago. She is an 8 month old explorer! |

| Oh Leonardo! He is an adorable 3 month old heart breaker. |
That is interesting how it's kitten time at the WCAS as well as OBX Animal Shelter. Great photos of all the cats. The picture of Lucy is particularly strong...the eyes, fur and composition are great!
ReplyDeleteI agree that Lucy is a particularly strong image. The detail in the dark fur is well achieved. One thing I would like to clarify is that unlike the SPCA, WCAS does not do any kind of research or background checks about who can adopt. Therefore, ANYONE can adopt from WCAS. Just wanted to make that distinction!
