]> Brea Cats In Need - In Memoriam http://www.breacatsinneed.com/taxonomy/term/7/0 en We Will Miss Them http://www.breacatsinneed.com/node/92 <strong>We dedicate this page to the beautiful cats that didn't survive&nbsp;the fire. Below you can read the story that I&nbsp;wrote&nbsp;soon after the fire occurred&nbsp;in 2006 along with the update soon after. We have since gone on with our work of trying to find loving homes for other cats but we will never forget the ones we lost. I'd also like to dedicate this page to the other cats that didn't die in the fire, but have died while in our care while they were&nbsp;waiting&nbsp;to be adopted into a&nbsp;home.&nbsp;&nbsp;We loved them with all our hearts and we will miss them very much.&nbsp;<br /><br />Brea&nbsp;Cats in Need Suffers a&nbsp;Heartbreaking Fire<br /><br /></strong>The Brea chapter of Cats in Need has suffered a terrible loss. On the morning of January 21, 2006&nbsp;there was a fire where 37 of our cats were being housed while awaiting to be adopted. We are very heartbroken to say that we have&nbsp;<a href="taxonomy/term/7" target="_self">lost 17 cats&nbsp;to the fire.</a> We don't even have the time right now to mourn the loss of them because we have 20 remaining cats&nbsp;that we need to either find permanent homes or foster homes for. The 20 remaining cats were taken to the Orange County Animal shelter.&nbsp;We have made arrangements with the shelter to get all of the cats out and into foster homes, but we need your help to move this process along more quickly.&nbsp;<br /><br />If you were thinking of adopting a cat, or know someone who is, please think of us. If you would like to foster a cat until it can be adopted out, please give us a call. <a href="node/94" target="_self"><strong>Click here if you would like to donate money, every little bit helps.</strong></a>&nbsp;Once we get the cats back out of the Orange County Animal&nbsp;Shelter we will need money for their veterinary care (if needed) and for their continued personal care.&nbsp;You, the community of Brea (and our surrounding friends), have always been so generous to us. Please keep us in your thoughts and help if you can.&nbsp; Thank you so much for your continued support. In Memoriam Sun, 22 Jan 2006 03:01:21 +0000 Bootsy http://www.breacatsinneed.com/node/222 <div class="image"><a href="node/220"><img title="Bootsy pic. #1" height="100" alt="Bootsy pic. #1" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/P1010654.thumbnail.JPG" width="97" align="right" border="0" /></a> <div class="caption">Bootsy is a black and white female who is around 10-12 years old. Her owner died and it seems that she had been neglected for awhile. When she came to us the poor thing was completely covered in matted fur. She's been shaved and her fur is now growing back in. She is very loving and craves attention. She is a very easy going kitty who just wants to be loved.<br /><br /><div class="image"><a href="node/221"><img title="Bootsy pic. #2" height="95" alt="Bootsy pic. #2" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/P1010657.thumbnail.JPG" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a> <div class="caption"><strong>UPDATE<br />I'm very sad to say that Bootsy had to be put to sleep. She had been ill and wasn't getting better. It was&nbsp;better to let her go&nbsp;so she wouldn't be in pain any more.&nbsp;She was such a sweet and loving cat and had a beautiful soul. It is my hope and prayer that she&nbsp;has reunited in heaven with her previous&nbsp;owner.&nbsp;She will be missed very much. </strong></div></div></div></div> In Memoriam Wed, 29 Nov 2006 00:52:50 +0000 Hershey http://www.breacatsinneed.com/node/171 <div class="image"><a href="node/169"><img title="Hershey pic. #1" height="75" alt="Hershey pic. #1" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/P1010028.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a> <div class="caption">Hershey has a really sad story. While riding a bicycle his owner was killed by a motorist. Hershey was one of twelve cats living in that household. Hershey is a beautiful 3-4 year old male who is a Chocolate Point Siamese mix. He is really shy and sad right now, but he takes great comfort in someone petting him. You can see him relax a little as you pet him. He also loves canned cat food. <br /><br /><div class="image"><a href="node/170"><img title="Hershey pic. #2" height="75" alt="Hershey pic. #2" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/P1010032.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a> <div class="caption"><strong>Sadly, Hershey passed away while in our care while waiting to find a home.

He goes crazy when you throw him a toy mouse. He likes to play with running water and also enjoys burying himself under the covers. Disney has already been adopted out to someone but then was returned (after declawing him!). He and the adopter didn't get along. So now we are looking for that special someone to&nbsp;adopt Disney and give him a safe home to stretch out and really have some room to play with his toy mouse (there really&nbsp;isn't a lot of room for him in his cage to play with his mouse). Oh, and how did Disney get his name? He was originally found in the Disneyland parking lot under the hood of a car looking for a warm place to snooze.<br /><br />Why is the second picture of him blurry? Well, he's a quick cat! The only reason I got the first picture of him in focus is because he was busy concentrating on a fly in the room! <img src="modules/tinymce/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-tongue-out.gif" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><div class="image"><a href="node/54"><strong><img title="Disney" height="84" alt="Disney" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/EPSN0901.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div></div></div></div> In Memoriam Sat, 22 Oct 2005 03:28:10 +0000 Thomas http://www.breacatsinneed.com/node/20 <div class="image"><a href="node/19"><img title="Thomas" height="99" alt="Thomas" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/56040041.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a> <div class="caption"><div class="image"><div class="caption">Thomas is a 6 year old black and white male cat&nbsp;who is declawed on all four paws. Sadly, his previous owner became too sick to take care of him&nbsp;anymore and had to give him up. He&nbsp;can be&nbsp;shy at first, but&nbsp;once&nbsp;he realizes you are willing to pet him he perks up real quick. He needs someone to be patient with&nbsp;him, but if you give him that little bit of time, trust me,&nbsp;he is well worth it! He is a big sweetie!&nbsp;He sometimes likes to be a lap cat and is possibly good with other cats (with the right cat!). He would love to curl up on your bed and take a cat nap!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="node/93"><img title="Thomas (2nd picture)" height="75" alt="Thomas (2nd picture)" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/EPSN0622.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a></div></div></div></div> In Memoriam Wed, 24 Aug 2005 07:30:38 +0000 Tigris http://www.breacatsinneed.com/node/16 <div class="image"><div class="image"><a href="node/123"><img title="Tigris pic. #2" height="67" alt="Tigris pic. #2" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/EPSN0615.thumbnail_0.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a><a href="node/24"> <div class="caption" /><img title="Tigris" height="47" alt="Tigris" src="files_breacatsinneed/images/56040023.thumbnail.jpg" width="100" align="right" border="0" /></a></div>Tigris is a 5 year old brown tabby who loves for her head to be stroked and scratched.
