Any Austin Cat Lovers?
July 29, 2004
Got a plea in a comment to post this information:
Please pass on the info if you are in the Austin area... ::::Ugh...The LJ Austin community journal recently went to moderated posts only. They've yet to allow any posts after 7pm to come through tonight. Mine is time-sensitive, so I'm itching. I have two Austin peeps on my friends list, and one of you has some cat link/networking abilities. If either of you want her before she's put to sleep, or can post it in your journal for other Austinites to see, here is the info (She's tubby and cute!):
-----------------------------------
The volunteers at the Town Lake Animal Shelter were desperate to find a home (OR A TEMPORARY FOSTER HOME) for a cat there tonight. Chloe will be put to sleep tomorrow night, by close of business. The volunteers tried to give her to me for Free. I've been at the shelter nightly for almost 4 weeks to look for a lost pet, and have not seen these same volunteers act like this before.
The deal:
Chloe was supposed to be put to sleep tomorrow morning. The volunteers got the front desk to put a hold on her until 7pm instead, because someone might be interested in her. Volunteers say they are trying hard with Chloe because she's so sweet, and are bummed that she's become so depressed from being there so long and don't want to see her put to sleep.
Chloe's photo is no longer on the shelter's website - but here's her stats:
- You can foster Chloe temporarily or keep! The volunteers will stay in touch, & help you find a home for her if fostered.
- FREE! Her fee dropped down to $20.00. The volunteers said they will pay the $20.00. You should tell the adoption desk that the volunteers said they would pay!
- No waiting period! You can take Chloe home immediately.
- Female
- Gray & White Snowshoe & Siamese Mix. Blue Eyes. Short Hair.
- Roly-Poly! 16 pounds. She's so tubby, she's darling.
- Has all shots!
- Microchipped!
- Spayed!
- Front Declawed (this means inside only & she won't rip up your stuff!)
- 5-years old
- Digs playing with her toy mouse
- She's become bummed out in her cage, so she doesn't come running to the front of the cage anymore. Just needs lovin'.
- They say her health is great.
- Her owner gave her up, because they just didn't want a cat anymore.-- Must be there earlier than 7:00pm when they close tomorrow night, to fill out adoption papers at the adoption desk.
-- If you rent, they need to see a paper from your landlord stating it's okay to have pets.
-- If you have pets, they need to see rabies shot proof for your other pets.If no pets - even better, you don't need rabies proof - just come get her. (Personally, I would lie my butt off & say I do not have any pets, if I was a bit behind on rabies shots & knew that mine were always inside ...but that's just me.)
Town Lake Animal Shelter's website & location: http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/animals/Chloe's Shelter/prison I.D. is: A351670 -- She is in Kennel #AB 20 She is in the Adoption cat house, not the stray cat house.
* I'm in a situation where I can't take on a new cat - or I would have walked out of there with her tonight. The volunteers said they can't take anymore cats, Chloe's cage has Vet signs on it - no biggie, they had her on special food to try to get her to lose weight or something - they think the special food signs scared people away without realizing it's only food, and she is healthy.If you get Chloe - please comment here! Would love to know that she's found a permanent or temporary foster home.
I hope someone can find this cat a good home.

Thank you for your help! I appreciate it very much. :)
I sent my husband to get Chloe when they wouldn't answer the phone or return my calls. I knew I could be sending him on a wild goose chase. He called and said there were two people ahead of him waiting for her. They have decided she won't be euthanized today, but she does have a health issue. She has a growth on her leg that has been getting bigger and anti-biotics have not helped. If it is determined to be cancerous, she may lose her leg. I hope she gets better, we were quite ready to bring her into our home as we recently lost our 13 year old cat to cancer. There seem to be a lot of people concerned about Chloe's welfare and that is a very encouraging thing. Even if she loses her leg, she still deserves a loving home. If not with us maybe someone else.
