Hi, Ella here – formerly called Della (Duck). I just want to say thanks and many purrs for finding me such a good home. It only took me about a week to whip my ‘brothers’ into shape and now I am clearly the BOSS. I’m not a lap cat like my predecessor – I’m more of a chest cat.

Mom complained at first because her hands weren’t free for reading or typing but I soon convinced her that she should use that time for simply relaxing – something humans sometimes have a problem with. We cats wrote the book on relaxing and it’s time that humans followed our example. Besides, Hhlllwith me anchoring mom to her chair, she gets to clear her mind and just savor the stillness. So, I guess I’m more than just an adorable purring bundle of fur, I’m also therapeutic!

Last summer, my husband and I decided it was time for us to get another cat. Since our other cat Yuki was still showing signs of morning after the loss of a previous cat who died seven months before of cancer. We were thinking about adopting a kitten but when we came across the Baypath website and saw Suko as well as meet him, we were very taken by him. Now after several months, Yuki and Suko are great together. They each show general concern for the other and cuddle up at times like littermates. We are very thankful to have Suko and we love everything about him. We don’t know how our little family would be without him. 

 Hello BayPath, I'm writing to give you an update on *Bella *(formerly known as "Beauty") and forward a picture. Bella is doing well after a month of settling in. She is so good - always on her best behavior - I'm still waiting for her to get into some kind of kitten trouble ! I'm very glad I adopted her and met the young girls who found her in the woods and brought her to the shelter! She's a princess now! Marcia

 About a year ago, I walked into Baypath and heard a constant meowing. In the center of the cages, was a black cat meowing very nervously. She was just too precious to leave. Since taking her home, I found out she has slowly come out of her shell and has begun to trust humans. She is even friends with our German Shepard! Cocoa is an amazing cat, as many cats that are put into shelters. I hope more people adopt from Shelters. Cocoa is truly a gem. Thank you Bay Path for giving Cocoa a second chance!!

 Hi, I adopted Meredith in June of 2009, shortly after my brother's tragic death. She has been very helpful in the healing of that great sadness. I thought you would like to know that she's happy and healthy. There's no other word to describe her than "sweet." She loves to have her belly rubbed. She's very affectionate and sleeps next to me every night. When I saw her on your website I said to myself "That's the kitty for me." And she was. Thank you! Jeffrey

  Hello, A couple months back we adopted a 2 yr old short haired cat named Mitzi. When we met Mitzi, who now goes by "Sabes", she was shy, timid, and looked to be in need of a love. I just wanted to let Baypath know she's been nothing but a joy to our life since getting her. Since coming to our home, she's adapted very well and is as sociable as can be. Her spunky personality has given me and my girlfriend so much joy, everyday with her makes us smile. She's in good health, good spirits, and loves her new home. I just wanted to let everyone there know she is doing great and as happy as ever.

 Thank you

 
I adopted Calypso on July 17th, and I just wanted to let you know she's
doing really well.  She is an incredibly sweet girl, still purring up a
storm, and very playful for an 8 year old.  She definitely enjoys being
the only cat; no problems with eating or using the litter box now.  I had
a lot of reservations about adopting an older cat, but am really glad she
came home with me!  She was clearly well taken care of before she came to
the shelter, and I'm glad her previous owners were brave enough to give
her a second chance at a happy home!
Thanks again, Lori

 I've been wanting to write you and update you for some time, but have been trying to get good pictures of our wonderful dog (Rusty) and cat (Griswold-formally known as Jonas), adopted from you last September.  The two are wonderful, and fast friends.  We can't believe that Griswold was surrendered for not being good with other animals!  
See attached photos.  Rusty and Griswold play together like two dogs (Gris never extends his claws or bites), they sleep together, and would eat out of the same bowl (if we didn't know that dog food isn't the best for cats).  He is an incredibly friendly cat; very affectionate. Rusty is just all dog.  Sweet and game for anything.

Thank You
Linda

  Hi Elaine, I wanted to thank you for all your help through our adoption process adopting Zoey (formerly Princess). She has adjusted to our home very nicely. She spent the first couple of weeks in my son, bedroom. On occasion, we'd opened the door and try to get her to explore the rest of the house. Now she is QUEEN of the house! Princess was the right name for her after all. Zoey is so attached to my son it's adorable. He leaves a room and she is right behind him following him like a dog. It's the cutest thing. She acts more like a dog, which is just what we were hoping for being former dog owners. (Our black lab passed away a year ago.)  Story Con't Below!

  Here is an update on Bammy and Tammy that we adopted 9 months ago. They are doing fine and are very playful. Tammy has less often her congestion problem and she reached her brother's weight. Bammy will get surgery for his eye next month at Tufts university and may recover his sight. 

Thank you again....we love them so much, Veronique (Bammy pic below)

  Today is moe's 4th anniversary. thanks again to the great people at BAYPATH HUMANE SOCIETY, hopkinton,ma for letting me take him home. (they do screenpotential adoptees, phew). moe is the worlds coolest kitty, though bobby, jack, lucky and ophelia give him some pretty good competition.  more pics below!

Thank You

In June 2008, my 16 year old Tuxedo Cat, Chaz, had to be put to sleep.  She was my best friend and it was very hard on me.  I decided to get another cat to try and ease the pain, but I didn't think I'd love another as much as I loved Chaz.   I was getting ready to head to a shelter close to my home, but a good friend strongly advised I go to Baypath.  She told me what a great group of people they had working there and that my adoption would be handled with the utmost compassion and thoroughness.

The moment my parents and I walked in to the cat complex, an adorable
pastel Tortie approached my mom, got up on her hind feet and put her front
paws on Mom's legs.  She looked up at my Mom as if to say "please take
me".   That was it...I had found my next best friend.  Her name was
"Juniper Breeze" when I adopted her, but I renamed her "Isis".     Isis is
a love.  She's extremely affectionate and follows me everywhere.  She
jumps up to the front window and meows when I get home, and can't wait for
me to come in the door.

I know there could have been extenuating circumstances for the
person/family who once owned her, but I couldn't believe that someone
could have given her up.  I felt so bad for their loss, but happy for my
gain.  Isis brings happiness and love into my life every single day.
Thank you Baypath!
