When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: 6/4/24
Pet’s AARF Name: Capicorn
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Jacob
How is your adopted pet doing? Jacob is a growing boy very active and loving.
It took about 4 weeks for Jacob and my other rescue Zena to get along. Now they are best of friends. Xena taught Jake not to bite hard or be a bully. Also to share their dad. ❤️
Jacob gets along with everyone. He loves his cat wall, call trees, catios and coming to work with dad if it isn’t a Zena play day.
My friends and I have play dates with a dog and cats at each other houses. When I need a babysitter I send them over and my friends do the same when they need pet care. The last time I had to go out on a job (which is rare) I left them for 4 days. When I came home they let me know they had the time of their young lives. Instead of that cold shoulder you would normally get. They were happy and joyful. My friend said they played with each other and the other cats after the first day of introductions.
This weekend we took care of a small dog and my kittens continued their dog socialization. Jacob is very social and by the 3 day the dog and him were sniffing each other without a care. As far as Jacob as a kitten I think Lauren his foster mom did a great job. I don’t see any phobias or bad treats. He absolutely loves to be held by women and playing with little girls. He loves his dad of course. Just an around great cat easy to take care of and handle.

Pet’s AARF Name: Virgo
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Blue
How is your adopted pet doing? Blue is doing so fantastic!!!! She has been such a sweetheart!!! We have two other cats, one just turned one, and the other one is seven. It took about 3-4 days for all of them to live together without any issues. We have had cats for 35 years, and she has been, by far, the easiest kitten to acclimate to our family. She is super sweet. She’s cute, she’s curious, she loves to play, but she also loves to snuggle. The gets along great with the two cats (and our German Shepherd), and they all have accepted her totally! She has the cutest purrs and meows, and we love here! She has been the perfect fit for us!

Pet’s AARF Name: Jasmine
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): N/a
How is your adopted pet doing? When I first brought Jasmine home, she was still recovering from giving birth to her kittens so she was pretty sleepy all the time. After a week or so, her personality really shone through! She loves playing with toys (especially wand toys and cardboard boxes) and is always coming up with new goofy ways to make me laugh (like turning belly up between the couch and the wall). She’s adjusted well to being a city kitty and one of her favorite activities is people watching. I’m so blessed to have her and I can’t imagine my life without her!

Pet’s AARF Name: Hemi
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Hemi
How is your adopted pet doing? Hemi is doing well with our family! He has been trying to engage our senior kitty with play time, she’s not interested in any of that, but she will accept a snoozing buddy! He loves chasing our dog’s tail, as well as his own. Our kids love to cuddle and play with Hemi, and he has secured his spot as the family “baby” with ease. We are so grateful to AARF and Lindsey for all their rescue efforts, without y’all we wouldn’t have Hemi.
