Muffin’s Pet Connection: Adopt Sweetpea!

HEY JUDE: Hi, I’m SWEETPEA aka TROOPER. I am an elegant black and white tuxedo, a Sandy and Nor’easter survivor, rescued on 11-11-12. I was all alone in the middle of a snowy street, like a discarded piece of coal.

“Cars zoomed over me; I was so tiny, no one noticed me. My eyes were sealed shut, due to a bad infection. My two siblings were dead; my mommy went missing.I was freezing cold, scared. Angelica, the AngelMAMA T

“I have NEVER needed to be trained; I am a born natural sweetie. I am EXTREMELY GENTLE, never scratched or bitten anything. I get along well with all personalities of other cats. I have been through a lot, but as soon as I am picked up, my purr machine starts.

“Please call Angelica, 917-750-3762. Come and meet me, and be prepared to have your heart stolen by me! Purringly yours, Sweetpea. Mention The Home Reporter and Muffin’s.

DEAR JUDE: Thank you so much for listing for Isadora and Lady Blaze in Muffin’s Pet Connection column in the February 7 Home Reporter. I am sorry I did not respond immediately. A lovely couple, who are loyal readers of yours, contacted us and have adopted both of these lovely kittens. I hope and pray that it will work out beautifully for everyone involved. Thank you again!Yours, June.

UPDATE:“I am sorry to say, that although the adopter who adopted ISADORA and LADY BLAZE is a lovely, caring person, she is not really up to dealing with the kittens.Would it be possible for you to resume listing these two six-month-old,spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, up-to-date on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations,very beautiful kittens?Thanks again for all your help. Yours, June,718-434-0577or e-mailjbalish@verizon.net.”
