Two Very Lucky Kittens!

Seven-week-old brothers Jason, Jerry, and Pedey were surrendered to MWHS by a family that could no longer care for them. These little boys went into one of our wonderful foster homes, and they were super friendly from day one. Everyone that met them fell in love. Kim and her family were hoping to adopt a pair of tabby kittens, and when they met brown tabby brothers Jason and Jerry, they immediately fell in love with these very silly kittens. Thank you, Kim, for giving these adorable kittens a loving mom and dad and a big brother and sister! We can assure you that Jason and Jerry will bring you lots of love and hilarity! (Fear not, Pedey was not left alone. He is currently in foster to adopt and youโ€™ll hear more about him soon!)

Trixie (formerly Tinkerbelle, calico) and Tony (formerly Cheeto) came to MWHS with their mom and three siblings after being found as a litter of five kittens. They spent time in one of our awesome foster homes while they grew and got ready for their forever home. โค๏ธ

Once they were ready for adoption, it didnโ€™t take long for these two adorables to find their perfect match with Julia and her family!
๐Ÿก๐Ÿ’™

As you can see and hear, everyone is extremely happy with how this arrangement worked out! ๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿ˜ป Thank you, Julia and family, for giving Trixie and Tony a wonderful forever home filled with love, attention, playtimeโ€”and plenty of laps for cuddling! ๐Ÿซถ

From Julia:

โ€œHi,
I hope you are doing well! Thank you so much for reaching out. Tinkerbell and Cheeto are now Trixie and Tony, and they are doing wonderful! They were the perfect additions and made our family whole. They are our only pets and everyone who visits falls in love with them! They have so much energy and love to run up and down our hallways! But they are also super cuddly and love to nap on our laps whenever and wherever!

I do not have any questions right now but I appreciate you asking and will definitely reach out if anything comes up! I will absolutely fill out a review, working with Metrowest was a joy!

I have attached some of my favorite photos of Tony (orange) and Trixie (calico)!

Thank you!โ€

A New Family for Trouble & Marby!

Kittens Trouble and Marby came to MWHS under very different circumstances, but youโ€™d never know these besties arenโ€™t siblings! A kind lady found Trouble by himself in a busy parking lot, and she managed to get him in her car and bring him to our shelter. We spent the next 30 minutes trying to convince him to come out from under her passenger seatโ€ฆand the name โ€œTroubleโ€ magically came to us! He really is a very sweet boy. Marby was found all by himself on a hiking trail in Marlboro. Marby is an absolute love bug and loves to be cuddled. Trouble and Marby were fostered together and quickly became best friends. Gwen and her daughter Zelda saw Trouble and Marby online, came to meet them, and quickly fell in love! Thank you, Gwen and Zelda, for giving these little guys a loving family, a big sister, and a safe home of their own. We know they will bring you much love, many cuddles, and lots of mischief!
