Salem came to Whiskers as a mom of 6 newborn kittens. She had traveled 5 hours to us and was absolutely scared to death. Salem was so nervous that her milk had dried up and a volunteer needed to step in and bottle-feed her babies. Slowly over 5 months she learned to trust humans and became brave enough to walk around a room without hiding. When Sarah came along we talked about Salem’s needs and Sarah was up to the task! Salem settled into her new home and within a week was fully adjusted to her new home. Sometimes all a kitty needs is a person like Sarah in their life.

Carmen is a special needs kitty with Cerebellar Hypoplasia and suffered from giardia and a herpes flare as a kitten.
