Age: Born approx. February 1, 2002
Gender: Spayed Female

History:
Pumpkin is with PAW for the second time.  We try our very best to fulfill our promise to make rescued cats’ lives better for the rest of their lives.  The first time Pumpkin was in the PAW system was back in 2003 when she came to us in the late stages of a pregnancy, likely her first.  After her kittens were adopted, the person who fostered Pumpkin decided she would like to keep her.  Pumpkin lived in that home for six years along with another little cat named Keetka.  Although Keetka was not a PAW cat originally, we agreed to take him in too.  They were surrendered because their person moved into subsidized housing which doesn’t allow pets.  Having to make room for a returned cat is always disappointing for a rescue group. 

Personality:
No faults for this tiny girl!  She is sweet, gentle, cuddly and playful.  Cute too!  She is currently in a foster home with several other cats sticks up for herself with no problem at all.  Soon after she was returned to PAW, Pumpkin underwent a full dental. She had several teeth that needed attention. She recovered very well.  Where we once thought she was a very tiny cat, we now know she was thin because she couldn't eat very well. She is now a more normal-sized cat. She loves to curl up beside you or on you.  One of her favourite positions is to be held up high on your chest, her front legs draped over one shoulder.  It gets a little tricky when she’s in this position while you’re on the computer; but as most cat lovers know, finding your way around a keyboard with one hand is entirely possible!  Pumpkin needs love (not difficult with this one), stability and place on her person’s bed.  

It would be nice for Pumpkin and Keetka to be adopted together.  For now, they are in separate foster homes.
