GaDaH has received our second batch of saved kitties from Kabul, Afghanistan working with a veterinarian and rescue in KABUL, Afghanistan to help save some of their abundance of stray and abused animals.
LOLA was flown into Washington DC, with 12 other kitties on 16th March and driven another 17 hours up to the rescue in Sebec, Maine.
Lola is spayed, rabies, feline panleukopenia, herpesviral and caliciviral infection, dewormed, monthly preventatives, microchipped, weighs around 6.7 pounds and has an estimated date of birth of 1 June 2018.
Lola has been at the rescue almost 3 months now and since most of the other cats have been adopted, she has clearly relaxed and come out of her shell a lot more. She has started to explore, play with toys, wrestle with the catnip toys and she loves treats. She is still not sure about being stroked, however, if I have food, or treats, she will come and sit close by and wait for me to share. She will take treats out of my hand and so her confidence is most definitely increasing and in a loving home environment, I do not believe it would be long for her to gain trust and learn what it is like to be stroked and loved.
Considering the ordeal that these kitties have endured they have adapted into great companions. Whilst here at the rescue they have been kept indoors, however, I do believe that they had been mostly outdoor in Afghanistan, as they do act like they want to go outside, however, individual families will have to make that decision on their home and living environment and if need be, build or purchase a cat condo to give the cats the best of both worlds.
LOLA is available for an adoption fee of $100
This fee is not negotiable. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada.
Due to borders being closed, it is up to families to call the US and Canadian borders to find the current details on border crossing. Animal Welfare is deemed essential in the US, but quarantine rules entering back into Canada must be followed. We have had families being allowed to travel since Animal Welfare is deemed essential in the US, however, of course following quarantine rules must be followed when returning to Canada.
