Our rescue cat, Brutus a/k/a Bruter and not Boot, has settled into our household.  He is wonderful, loving, polite and very social.  There is not one thing that he does that is not acceptable (just a little shedding)

Boot is the perfect cat and I can only imagine how distressed his former owner was having to give him up for adoption, there had to be a very good reason.

We had just happened to walk into the Humane Society of Naples that particular day and there he was at the window waiting for us.  He is what I had always imagined a pet cat to be.  I once had another white cat named Strohs and I never imagined I would be able to replace him.  Boot is everything good that Strohs was and more.

Boot seems very Grateful to be with us.  Do you think he realizes that he was rescued and that is why he is so good?

Prior to Boot we had an Old English Sheepdog, Star, she was rescued from a shelter in Philadelphia.  Her owner, an older woman, passed away.  We had recently had our male Old English put to sleep; we were crushed and missed him so much a search for his siblings which brought me in a round about way to the Old English Rescue of NJ and then to Star, in Philly.

She was the same, a perfect dog, very loving and sweet. 

I communicated thru Pet Finders with the Old English Rescue in Coperstown FL. this past January prior to my relocation to Naples.  They told me about a male dog one year old that had some vision problems, the timing was not correct and we did not get him.  The other day I was walking out of a convenience store after paying for gas in Naples.  There was an Old English in the car.  I started a conversation with the owner and it was the same dog that was up for adoption in Coperstown.  Another sweet, loving, perfect dog that is so grateful for his home.
