Missy is finally safe from the cold





Little Missy was reported to PFA after the first cold snap of the winter, before Christmas. She was living in the Westhill area of Regina, sheltering under decks in the area, and eating whatever she could find. Residents also reported seeing a kitten with her at the time. Our feral team went out to locate her, and attempted to trap Missy and her kitten, with no success. In the interim, they set up a shelter for them, and put signs up around the area asking if anyone knew more about them.
This month, we were contacted by a kind couple in the neighborhood who had found Missy sheltering in their garage. They began feeding her and taking care of her, eventually winning her trust enough that she came into their house. As you can see in the photos above, Missy made herself very much at home, given some time and some love.
Today, Missy is at the vet clinic, being spayed. Tonight she will be headed to a PFA foster home for more rehabilitation, and she will be listed for adoption soon.
We are still hopeful that we will be able to locate her kitten soon, although there have been no recent sightings. The cold is hard on homeless cats.
