My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet Emma! Emma is a very special kitty. She is the matriarch of her family, and she kept them safe when they were homeless. You see, Emma took it upon herself to find a foster home for her sister, Sadie, and their three kittens! Emma is so sweet and loving; she loves to be held, to have her ears scratched, and to play with toys in her foster home. Emma also has a lovely purr, and she is not shy about showing it off. In her foster home, Emma quickly let the dogs know that she's in charge. She is not afraid of anything, and she takes the world in stride (as long as she has her kibble!!). Here is the story of Emma and her family: On July 2nd, a stray showed up at the house of one of our volunteers. Feeling that she had found the best B&B in town, the next day she brought her whole family: another cat and three kittens! The family of five was taken in, went to the vet, and settled into their new life in a foster home. Both of the adult cats were nursing the three kittens, who were estimated to be about 7 weeks old, at the time. The cats were given names: Mama Emma, Mama Sadie, Tori, Callie and Dot. Fast forward a few days. KGARL was contacted about a litter of six, one-week old, orphaned kittens. Since we had two nursing mothers, we decided to bring in the babies, as well! It took a few days to work out the system, but both Emma and Sadie fed and cared for the orphaned kittens! It was quite the sight to see. Emma and Sadie make a great team, and Tori, Callie, and Dot happily shared their moms with the little ones :) If you would like to add one of our foster pets to your home, please visit http://www.kgarl.org/info/adoption to learn about KGARL's adoption process, and to submit an adoption application.
