Rescued pets

We attended an SPCA fund-raising event at the weekend, and exchanging stories about rescued pets reminded us of when we adopted our two little poopers. So, today wanted to share with you some pics of them...cos we are so proud.

'Poppet' arrived after recovering from being found very ill and was nurtured back to health by Dee's Orphan Kitten Fund. She soon settled in and is a real live wire. Milly however, had been found very skinny with kittens and super-scared. After a long stay with Victoria Pet Adoption Society we brought her home. She sat in this little bed (her's from the shelter) in the corner of the spare room for three full months while we earned her trust with patience and kindness. She never dared to leave that corner until we were asleep, but then she would check out the house and play with her toys. Finally, one day, after hearing Poppet running around she beat her fears, left the room, and never went back! (Catherine at VPAS and Kerry at Dee's, I hope you enjoy this post and see how they've grown.)








As you can see they are just great together. Poppet had lost her mum and Milly her kittens so the match was perfect. It's so great to hear others people rescue stories so, if you have one let me know.
