Meet Rose

This week I wanted to interview one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met. Rose has been here just over 200 days. She came in with five little kittens who have all been adopted and now she is waiting to find a forever home of her own. Please enjoy my first ever interview with a local super model.

So, Rose, how did you find your way to NAHS?

Hi Prowler. Well, last year, I was a stray kitty on the mean streets of Bolingbrook. I started hiding under someone's house and on Labor Day, I had a litter of 5 kittens! The nice people who found me brought me here to the shelter. I went into a foster home with my kittens for a few weeks and then I made my way back to the shelter to go up for adoption. I've been here since October and I'm still waiting for the right family to rescue me!

In your opinion, what is the right family for you?

I'm hoping for someone who will take very good care of me. I'm very snuggly and sweet. I'd love to hang out with my new family and watch tv. I've lived with kids before and I'm very gentle and tolerant.

What's your favorite thing about NAHS?

The staff and volunteers are very nice to me! They take very good care of me! I get treats, brushed frequently and lots of snuggling! I don't want to like it too much though, because I'm hoping to go to a nice home soon!

If an actress was going to play you in a movie about your life, which actress would get the role?

Hmm...I think Kate Winslet. She would best portray my struggle as a stray cat, then a single mom and a sweet shelter kitty.

Thanks so much for taking the time to talk to me, Rose. I hope this helps you find a forever home quickly. I know any family that is lucky enough to adopt you is sure to have a wonderful new companion.

PS From Prowler : Good news! Shortly after posting our blog, a fabulous couple came into NAHS and decided to welcome Rose into their home. Although I was sad to see her go, I am so extremely happy that she has found a forever home.
