💚 HAPPY TAILS 💚
Cartwheels has truly leveled up—from shopping carts to warm laps!
This handsome guy was living in the cart stand at a local Target, where kind employees made sure he had food, but it was no place for a cat to call home. Thankfully, ARR foster Paula stepped in and gave him a chance at a better life.
Though fearful at first, Cartwheels soon discovered that soft beds, tasty treats, and indoor living were pretty wonderful. After being neutered and vetted, he was ready to find his forever family.
While he remained a shy boy around most visitors, everything changed when Joy came to meet him. Cartwheels walked right up to her and climbed into her lap—and Joy knew she had been chosen. 🥹
Now known as Ted, he recently celebrated his one-year adoptiversary with Joy. He spends his days enjoying all the lap time, snuggles, and treats he deserves.
Huge thanks to Paula for giving him a second chance and to Joy for providing the loving, peaceful home where he could truly blossom. We're so happy for Ted and his mom!
