Qualude ~ the first rescue ~
Qualude was rescued in 1996. He had been declawed by his previous owners and then put outside with a large herd of ferral cats, unable to defend himself and had to fight for food. He is now indoors, well fed and in excellent health. He also has adopted all the cats that followed him, and even though he is declawed, when challenged in anyway stands up on his hind legs ready for battle. The challenger immediately backs down (after all, the others don't know he's declawed). He is "the Great Sage", the wise elder of the herd.

Shade
~ AKA Shadow Light ~
Thousand Dollar Cat
Shade was rescued in the summer of 1996. His previous owner could no longer keep him and we were told he would not get along with other animals. Shade had been abused by the previous owner's roommate and had suffered a broken hip(which was untreated) and also, as we came to realize had severe urinary blockage and kidney trouble. After extensive surgery and a year of recouperation and numerous minor surgeries he is now healthy, very loving toward us and all the other animals at the sanctuary. He is kept healthy by a special prescription diet, which is fed to all the cats in an effort to avoid this dreaded health issue occurring in any other rescued cat. He has, through his valient fight for life, become "Lord of the Realm".

Tumbleweed
~ AKA Owl Eyes ~
Tumbleweed came to Little Green when he was only 6 weeks old. He is an angora, persian mix. He used to like to sleep on the steps and tumble down them so of course we named him Tumbleweed.

Pidgeon
~ Whistle Cat ~
Mr. Pidgeon Higins
Pidgeon was adopted in 1996 by the shelter at age 3 months. He is the "forever kitten" of the Sanctuary. He loves to play "face smash" with us. He got the nickname "Whistle Cat" because the shape of his mouth makes him look like he is whistling.

Lyncoya
~ AKA Lynx ~
The Abandoned One
Steve brought Lyncoya home in September of 1996. She had been abandoned in the country, was very sick, half starved and recouperating from having a litter. Today she is in excellent health.

Bootsie
Bootsie came to us almost 4 years ago. He is a rescued ferral cat. It took over two years but he finally trusts us enough to come to us for lots of petting today.

Indigo
Indigo is another rescued ferral cat. She came to us with Bootsie. She has just gotten to the point where she will sit with us in the same room for awhile. Her picture will be added as soon as she stays in the same room with us for more than 4 minutes.

Sasha
Sasha is another rescued ferral cat. She too has been with us almost 4 years. She came around very early for love and petting. Her curiosity outweighed her fear of humans.

Benjamin

Benjamin showed up in our back yard one afternoon in 1999. He took up residence under our back porch and decided to come on in later that same evening. He is a big loving "duffer".

Piwhackit

Piwhackit was rescued from sure death at approximately 2 weeks of age. She came out to greet me in a family member's barn. Her mommy had met with an unfortunate demise. She was very hungry, sick and almost blind. She is now happy, healthy and very very spoiled.

Tennessee

Tennessee was rescued in the spring of 2001 after he had become "inconvenient" to his former caretakers and had been put outside on a very busy city street. He is an absolute delight.
