September 2006 - Katie and Karen: I adopted Katie from Precious Paws about one month ago. What a joy this little bundle of fur is!! Katie starts to purr at the sound of my voice, sleeps right beside me every night, and is so much fun. She's got plenty of toys and loves to walk around the house throwing them in the air and even brings her favorite to bed every night!! She now has a big sister too and as "siblings" do they have a little sibling rivalry going. When I walked into Precious Paws my intent was to bring home a kitten, but at the last minute Katie jumped up beside me and picked ME!! What joy she and my other cat bring to my life!! Thank you for the wonderful service you provide to the St. John Valley!!! I urge everyone to adopt a cat from Precious Paws!!! Karen from Madawaska

February 2006 - Eko and Michelle: Just wanted everyone out there know what a perfect little kitten I got from Precious Paws about a month ago! :D So healthy and playful! Actually I think at times, I'm the one tiring him out!! :P Got his first set of shots yesterday and all is well! I hope you enjoy the images that I will share with you of my pride and joy! Thank you again Precious Paws! :wink: Michelle Olsen

July 2007 - Storm & Spencer: We adopted Storm and Spencer in Dec. 2006. Since being a volunteer at the shelter, I was familiar with the cats characters and I wanted to take them all home! Storm, an all black cat, started to lose his fur a lot because of being in the shelter too long and was starting to get stressed. We chose him because my husband loves fat cats and by all means he was fat! A 16 pound shelter cat, you don't see that often, now you know that Precious Paws was treating him like a king just like all the other ones. Since we brought him home, within 2 months all of his fur had grown back, I guess we don't stress him that much!!As for Spencer, we chose him because we liked his personality and colors. He only weights 6 lbs! There's a big weight difference between the two but they loves each other and happy that they left with a pal so they wouldn't be alone at our house. It's so funny because it's Storm who sleeps in Spencer's arms, it's very funny to see, he's a big teddy bear. Like my husband says: If anyone is scared of black cats, they should meet Storm. We are very happy with these cats and it's all because of Linda's hard work that saved all these cats. They're part of our little family now. Bill & Bren Levesque

June 2007 - Taco Bell & Misty: This is Taco Bell and Misty, all adopted by a wonderful family. "It seems we had a bit of a mix up at the shelter during the adoption. Misty and Bell looked identical so when we thought we were adopting Bell, we had actually adopted Misty along with Taco. We wanted to keep Taco and Bell together since they were siblings." Rather than separate the kittens and have to part with a kitten they all fell in love with, the new family decided to keep Misty and add Bell to their family as well! All are doing great as you can see however Misty put us through a bit of a scare when she was spayed. It seems she stopped breathing while she was under anesthesia which caused some blindness. After a week at the vets clinic the new family took her home to continue to nurse her and monitor her progress. We were thrilled to hear that she has since adjusted very well a huge thanks to the love and special care she receives from her new family. They look pretty happy and well adjusted don't you think?? Wow, We should all have it so great.
