We are thrilled to report that Pippi, the six-year-old tabby cat has found her forever home. Congratulations Pippi!
Our pets of the week are a litter of five, eight-week-old kittens. There are three females — Flower and Summer are tuxedos, and Missy is a Russian Blue. The two males are a Siamese named Doug, and a gray tuxedo named Tuck. All the kittens are very sweet and ready to go to their new homes. We are starting with our kitten list but contact us if you’re interested in one of these babies to see who might still be available.
We also have Moses, a six-year-old, buff and white cat with beautiful blue eyes. He’s coming out of his shell and is proving to be a sweet, loveable boy. Otherwise, he’s up-to-date on vaccines and is ready to go.
The annual garden party will be held this coming Monday, June 29, at 20 Old Farms Trail on the Edgartown Great Pond. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at animalshelterofmv.ejoinme.org/attend. Lenny Clark will be our auctioneer this year. The online auction is now open and can be accessed through the shelter website.
