Alexia
(formerly Foxy)

ADOPTED 02/25/2002

Alexia was a lucky kitty, because she was adopted before she even got listed on the website! Robin came in to the adoption open house and when he met her it was love at first sight.


Pancho Villa
(formerly Raffles)

ADOPTED 02/23/2002

Pancho Villa , Drew's brother, has a mischievous look with the black patch over his eye. This cute little rogue was adopted by Ginger and Rick. They report "Just wanted to let you know that Raffles - we might call him Pancho Villa but we have to see if he agrees first - is doing fine. He cried a couple of times on the way home. We put him in our bedroom with food, water and a litter box, but I don't think he ate anything yet. He purred in the carrier and let me pick him up and carry him around the room and sat in my lap.

We have one of those padded fleece lined "cubes" that's about 18" on each side with holes in two of them and one of those fleece lined beds. He agreed to leave my lap and move to the bed, so we left him safely in the room by himself. We arrived home a few hours later to find that he has made the cube into his home - we put one hole side up against a surface so that there is only one "exposure" side. He feels quite safe there but does let me get him, quite gently, for cuddling. I took him on a walking tour of the house but he's not yet ready to explore or leave my arms/lap. We moved the cube to the living room so he can be near us and hear the TV and house noises but still feel like he has his private and safe place, so he naps and then watches us sitting on the couch and we talk to him a lot."

Drew

ADOPTED 02/20/2002

Drew didn't have to wait long to find his new mom Alexis, everyone wanted to take this loving boy home! Alexis says "Friday night Drew watched me for hours! He ate, we played, and he likes walking between the window and the blinds, going all the way down, emerging, and going back to the beginning! It is cute and funny."


Lancelot

ADOPTED 02/04/2002

Lancelot was adopted by Cara and her daughters Chapin and Tomasine. There will be plenty of love to go around for this lucky kitty! They report "He really likes to lie wrapped around the back of the toilet. Pretty funny to see him back there with water dripping onto him from the sweating toilet curled on a towel but he is playing with us and seems to be ready to explore! We will let you know further adventures of our new kitty! (I'm sure there will be plenty)."


Molly
(formerly Jemima)

ADOPTED 01/25/2002

Molly was adopted by Doris and Jack, or did she adopt them? Molly only took about 5 minutes to find this cozy nest in her new home. During her stay at the vet clinic, Molly only purred silently, but Doris says "About 5 minutes after you left she turned on the purr machine and started kneading the fleece lining of the bed. She has quite a loud purr after all! (I guess she was waiting for a comfy bed!)"

Mink

ADOPTED 01/25/2002

Mink was adopted by Vera. She reports "Just wanted you to know how well Mink is doing. (I want to give her a new name, but I and my friends can't seem to think of one that captures her sweetness as well as her mischievous side.) She is eating quite well and really gaining in confidence, hiding a lot less and spending more time enjoying the open spaces of her new home. Best of all, she now seeks me out for attention and playtime, instead of me having to coax her to come and play! She is also good at amusing herself, playing with her toys or nosing about. She even jumps up on the bed and keeps me company, although she still doesn't stay very long. It's not just shyness, however: some of it is simply the humorously short attention span of a young cat!

She is incredibly loving and affectionate, and she can't resist human company. Once she gets over her initial shyness, moreover, she is quite social with new people as well. My friends love her! What a playful, gentle, sweet soul. I'm so fortunate to have brought her into my life. Thank you!"


Thomasina

ADOPTED 01/25/2002

"Dear Stanford Cat Network, Thank you so much for helping me fly all the way to Phoenix, AZ, to be with my new big family. The family consists of mommy and daddy, two female cat-sisters and a lovely house dog, Data, whom I fell in love with. I now have many toys (as you can see in the pictures) and get attention from all my family members. My new cat-sister Angel and I cuddle and play together, and I am trying my darndest to get Data to play with me, so I strut around showing him how pretty I look. He is so insensitive though. I will keep trying! My mommy and daddy give me treats and cuddles and they love me a lot."

Panda

ADOPTED 01/11/2002

Panda was adopted by Sarah and Ofer, he purred up a storm when he met his soon-to-be family! they say "Panda has been a wonderful addition into our lives! He sleeps with us all night long and we love the sound of his purr. He loves to play and chase his toy mice and his curiosity leads him following us from room to room. Thanks for a wonderful adoption, keep up the great work."

Umber and Cinnabar

ADOPTED TOGETHER 12/14/2001

Umber and Cinnabar were happily adopted by Sue! She says "The boys had a great weekend! They are both getting all settled in and they are doing the hiding thing under the bed (which is very understandable)! Cinnabar came out and rubbed on me quite a bit. Umber loosened up quite a bit when he saw how many kitty toys he has to play with (and he discovered the "wonders of catnip") ! He got very silly and was chasing balls all around the room! I have this toy also that is battery operated that is a ball with a possum hanging from it ~ they went absolutely nuts as the toy continued to roll around the room~ They really thought it was an animal and were biting it and kicking it around~ Too funny!"

 
Phoenix and Faith

(formerly Mimi and Momo)

ADOPTED TOGETHER 12/14/2001

Phoenix and Faith were adopted by Christine and Kirby! They say "The little ones are doing great! Every day they get a little less shy. They still aren't quite willing to let us hold them, but we play with them a lot, they sleep on our bed with us, and they'll let us pet them when they are in the mood. We're having a great time!"

Jellybean

ADOPTED 12/12/2001

On our very first visit we played and loved each other for over an hour and when I left I was told that Jellybean jumped into the window sill and was following me from window to window until I fell out of her sight. They couldn't believe our instant love for each other. Dagmar is very happy that someone will love and take care of Jellybean and was especially happy to hear that my mother (Jellybean's new grandma) has made her a afghan already and between us Jellybean will have over 6 presents under our tree this year. Thank you and the Stanford Cat Program for hooking us up together.


Daisy
(formerly Jewel)

ADOPTED 12/01/2001

Daisy captured the heart of Leticia, and she will join a family of black and white creatures, from the border collie to the other cats all the pets are black and white, but just by chance... and she will have access to a cat-proof backyard (Cat Fence-In).

Leticia says "We lucked out with little Daisy. She is probably the most instantly loveable little cat I've ever had. We've really bonded like no other. She follows me around the house, but what's really sweet is that she recognizes either the sound of my car - or maybe the garage door opening - when I get home. She runs down the stairs to greet me. Her other favorite thing is to crawl under the covers when I go bed - she'll sleep for a while, then runs off - like clockwork every night. Just love this little cat to pieces!!!"
