Pluto's adoption began in early November. A few weeks after losing their beloved kitty, a caring family decided to add a new furry member to their home and reached out to The Animal Haven's Shelter Manager, Michelle.

"I told Michelle that we were looking to adopt a cat or kitten that may not otherwise get adopted," says Pluto's new Mom. "She asked if I would be interested in a six month old kitten that she had been fostering named Pluto."

Pluto, who is deaf, came to the shelter with his brother and sister; all three were flea-ridden and in bad shape. Pluto had a herpes eye infection and pneumonia.
  
"We decided to meet Pluto, and fell in love instantly," recalls Pluto's Mom. Pluto was picked-up the day after Thanksgiving and, "within hours we couldn't imagine our household without him. We have never had a cat with so much personality. Though no other cat will be able to replace our deceased cat, Blue, Pluto has helped fill a void in our lives that was left when Blue passed."

Pluto's new family looks forward to coming home and being with the little guy.

"Whether we are playing with him, watching him chase the dogs, or simply cuddling with him, Pluto brings us joy every minute that we spend with him. I am so thankful for him, and for the wonderful people, especially Michelle, at The Animal Haven, who never give up on those cases that seem too far gone, cases such as that of our baby, Pluto."
