Fluffy, the Cat of the Day
Name: Fluffy
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Maine Coon Cat
Home: Manalapan, New Jersey, USA
 
   We rescued Fluffy last year from Petsmart on my daughter's birthday. We lost our cat to a stroke and our children were heartbroken. I saw an ad on PBS saying that a local chapter that does Maine Coon rescues was going to be at Petsmart, and they had shown an orange Maine coon that my daughter fell in love with. The rescue organization featured didn't show up, but there were other rescue organizations there, and we spotted Fluffy. Her name then was Wendy. She had recently been rescued from the local animal shelter where her time was almost up, as she had a litter of kittens which they had found homes for, but not her.

    We fell in love with her, renamed her (more appropriately) Fluffy, and she has been the best kitty, very loving, ever since. She knows she found a great family, sometimes my five-year-old leaves the door open and Fluffy just sits there and smells the air! I think she knows we love her too much for her to ever want to leave! Certainly this beats the uncertain life in a shelter any day. We love Fluffy!
