The NO VACANCY Sign is Out

   The Dew Drop Inn currently has a NO VACANCY sign hanging.  After Sebastion was adopted and he took his first plane trip home and Bella had been deemed 'recovered' by the liver specialists of Veterinary Specialty Care and returned to Pet Helpers for adoption, we took a couple of weeks "off" from fostering to take a small vacation.  Naturally, a feline-less house wouldn't last for long around here. 
   The weekend of the historical weekend flooding in South Carolina, we found the next set of kittens we hoped to foster.  They had been rescued from a feral colony by a caregiver and employee of Charleston Animal Society.  Be sure to check out their webpages (Dew Foster Group 1) to read information and see photos of Van Gogh, Sienna, Scarlett and Opie (originally Opal, but it appears Opal is a male).  The same individual also brought into Charleston Animal Society two additional kittens from another area of the county days later and those are now also with us (see Dew Foster Group 2).  The first four accepted Group 2, Franklin and Socks, into their group immediately and the house is full of cuddles, kneading paws, games of chase through the house, purrs, and meows.  They have been a fun group to watch stay healthy while they grow.  
   Now here's the part even I can't believe!  When I picked up Franklin and Socks, also coming home with me was another foster group.  Mama cat and five of her babies born within the shelter's walls on October 11, joined our menagerie of fosters.  This group is doing great and their mother is excellent at taking full care of them at this young age. 
   In addition to a vacation, fostering 12 felines, cleaning litter pans numerous times a day I have been working to raise money for the Charleston Animal Society's medical fund, Toby's Fund, through our team, Adopt Charleston Cats.  This is an annual Celebrity Chili Cook-off and Oyster Roast and the largest fundraiser for Toby's Fund.  As of this moment, Adopt Charleston Cats has raised $800 thanks to the generosity of friends, family, co-workers and strangers and we have several more weeks to go!  For each $25 donation, your donation can be used as a ticket into the event on November 21st at The Citadel football stadium in Charleston, South Carolina (or as a tax deduction).  Please do not hesitate to visit our team's page and make a donation to help treat, care and save the lost, injured and abandoned animals of Charleston County, South Carolina:
                                                             http://2015ChiliCookoff.kintera.org/adoptcharlestoncats
   We will continue working to raise more funds while getting future adoptable kittens ready for their forever families. Until next time, please keep your pets safe during the Halloween season and enjoy carving all your pumpkins into adorable kitty cat faces!

    Having owned cats all my life, when we put our last pet to rest after 17 years the decision was made to begin fostering kittens from our local No Kill shelter.  Many kittens and several cats later, it is rewarding to help the community and find wonderful, loving homes for the felines.  This website will include some thoughts, emotions, challenges, and best of all the enjoyments from the rewarding fostering experience.  It will also highlight cats available for adoption from local area shelters.

    I am not a veterinarian nor vet technician.  It is only for the love of cats and a life-time commitment of their care from neonatal abandoned kittens to aging cats that I have developed a few skills and learned along my journey of caring.

​Adopt Charleston Cats highlights some of the cats and kittens currently in the care of Charleston Animal Society, Dorchester Paws, Pet Helpers, and Hallie Hill Animal Sanctuary located in the Lowcountry of, South Carolina. More are available for adoption, but we will show a few that are either on an adoption floor, Pounce Cat Cafe + Wine Bar, available for adoption from their foster home, or soon to be available for adoption. We also highlight adoptable felines available through individuals (primarily rescuers/TNR) and these animals are fully vetted. Periodically, we will also highlight kittens and cats available for adoption through agencies from surrounding counties.
Please consider adoption by visiting each facilities' website to learn how you can visit and meet your next furry friend or contact us to be connected to a rescuer.  
Thank you for looking.
