Eddie Money was adopted at a reduced rate thanks to the Kia Pet Adoption Grant! He “packed his bags and left tonight and he went on a trip so far from here” all the way to Greencastle, PA! Thank you to his adopter for “taking him home tonight and being his little darlin’!”

We are REALLY going to miss this cat because he is a great big pile of love and we had gotten quite attached to him! Thanks to the Petfinder Foundation Kia Pet Adoption Grant, Eddie will no longer have to suffer through the bitter winter cold of Tioga County, PA, like he had to do last year before we were able to get a hold of him.

Eddie was a milestone cat for us, as he was the last friendly outdoor cat at a TNR colony of originally 30+ cats in Millerton, PA, that we had been working on for more than a year. The colony is now down to fewer than 10 cats and the remaining animals are all feral (not adoptable) and fixed and ear-tipped.

Thank you for making it possible for Eddie Money’s adopter to “take him home tonight!”
