C.A.R.E.S. mission is to rescue, shelter and find loving homes
for stray, abandoned and unwanted cats.

Sassy came to C.A.R.E.S. in October, 2009 after a call was received by a kind senior lady who had been feeding her since the summer months.  The lady was worried about getting “found out” as the residents in her building were not allowed pets, but she just couldn’t turn this lovely stray away when she arrived at her door begging for food. The cat came to her patio each day, and each day the lady fed her.  Soon, the nice lady began letting the cat inside and Sassy would come and sleep with her on her bed.  The lady loved having Sassy in for company but she feared that sooner or later she would get caught.  She found out about CARES, called the shelter and a volunteer came to pick up Sassy. 
At first, Sassy was not very excited about being brought to the shelter.  She did not like other cats and she let us and them know her feelings about coming to live in a shelter.  Although she is still not really happy about sharing quarters, Sassy has learned to tolerate her roommates.  She is often the first to greet us and she enjoys people giving her love and attention.
Sassy would make a nice companion for just about anyone with a quieter home.  Ideally, her new home would not have other cats. Sassy seems to be fine staying indoors, but she also just might like a nice yard to hang out in sometimes during the day.  Sassy deserves a good home. 
If you have room in your heart and your home for this lovely girl or any other cat, please speak with one of our adoption volunteers, call our shelter line at 604.532.5632 or e-mail adoptions@carescatshelter.com
