Adoption Tails – Meet TY
Animals are the most endearing and affectionate creatures on earth. They also give immense love and care to their owners and other people around them. This week we’re featuring the inspiring adoption story of Ty.
He has helped us care for so many of our foster cats (I have never see/heard him hiss at any cat or dog ever!).
Tell us the story of Ty
My background is in Architecture, but currently, I’m working in the field of Facilities Management. However, my heart has always been in the animal welfare work I have been doing with my Twin sister through our rescue group, 4 Deserving Paws.
Ty, is one of 6 kittens we had in our care at the end of last summer. The kittens were picked up Injured or sick from the streets of Dubai and Sharjah. By the beginning of winter, he was the only one that had not died.
I took it as a sign that he somehow was chosen to be with me and even though we (my sister and I) had promised each other that we were not adopting any more cats (we already have 5 at that time) I convinced her I couldn’t give him up. So he was mine.
How did you find Ty?
I rescued Ty from under a blue Chevy in the Muweilah area in Sharjah.
He was so hungry the day I pulled him out from under that pick-up. He ate and complained for nearly 15 mins after that. In fact, I have a video of those first few minutes (when I brought him to my car) and he wolfed down the sachet of wet food.
How did Ty change your life?
I never expected that Ty would be so accepting of other cats, and people, but he is! He is the cat we normally put forward to people who visit and want to see (and pet) our cats. He has helped us care for so many of our foster cats. Currently, we have a Three-legged kitten who was very shy in the beginning, but now that she has seen Ty interact with us, she seems to trust us more. She loves to go on drives too – like Ty.
Hands down I have to admit Ty loves to be in the car and loves it, even more, when he is allowed to stick his face outside (allowing the wind in his face).
He has been doing that from nearly day one. He also loves to go on walks (in the morning), as it’s cooler then.
