The mystery of Stroller




People For Animals found out the other day that the Regina Humane Society had a cat out at the shelter that had been found and was registered to People For Animals. We quickly had a volunteer run out and picked it up. The tattoo in the ear had indicated that this was a cat named Stroller; a 2 yr old grey and white male..... PFA keeps track of all our adoptions and we sprung into action trying to find out where Stroller belonged.

After some investigating we learned that OUR cat Stroller was still safe at his forever home and this grey and white cat was an imposter! After a vet check we realized this RHS "Stroller" was a female, about 8 yrs old and the tattoo, which was difficult to read - was only 1 number off of the tattoo of Stroller.

So we tried to find "Stroller 2nd's" family with no luck.

She is now in PFA care, awaiting foster placement and will be up for adoption soon. Her name has been changed from "Stroller" to Pigeon as she coos like a pigeon when petted. (Also 2 cats named Stroller may get confusing again in the future)

Above is a picture of Pigeon at the vet's.

Below is pictures of our original rescued cat named Stroller (who was rescued during a TNR blitz March 2009) , enjoying the good life with his forever family. Note the simularaties! Also snuggled up to Stroller is cat buddy Friday, who was also a People For Animal's rescued cat. Click here to check out Friday's story.















Phew! Now that we solved that mystery, we can focus on adopting out cats and kittens at Petsmart's adoption days this weekend!
