91原创鈥檚 CARES cat shelter is putting out a plea to the public to help find a foster home for two senior cats.
Their foster human is not able to take them with her.
鈥淭hese two cats have lived together for eight years with their beloved foster mom, Linda,鈥� explained Marian Haney, with CARES. 鈥淯nfortunately, Linda has to move to a place where she can鈥檛 have pets. It is a heartbreaking situation for both Linda and the cats.
Haney said Ginger is about 10 years of age, a rotund red tabby.
鈥淕inger is full of character and likes to voice her own opinion at times,鈥� she said.
CARES would like her placed with Rhett Butler, a tuxedo cat with a laid-back disposition who is very affectionate and loves to cuddle. He鈥檚 about 15.
鈥淲e urgently need a foster home for Ginger and Rhett, preferably together,鈥� Haney said.
Anyone interested in helping can contact her at 778-689-7368 or mjhaney@shaw.ca.
