Kendra

Name: Kendra
Primary Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Gender: Female
Entry Date: 4/7/12
Birth Date: 4/2/09
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee:
 $50.00

Full Description: I originally came to the shelter with my sister as just a tiny kitten of only 2 pounds.  We grew up and continued to be overlooked.  Many moons after our entry, we decided to have a little fun.  We came up with a plan and taught ourselves how to open the door of our kennel.  After that we opened up the kennel doors of others and had ourselves a party!  Once shelter staff figured out what we were doing they nicknamed us the Party Planner (me) and the Party Planner’s Assistant (my sister).  Finally, our day came and we were adopted together in January, nearly 2 years after entering the shelter.  Over a year later, our owner returned us due to her health problems and wished us the best of luck.  Because we spent so long at the shelter the last time, shelter staff opted to make us Cabin Fever Cats and reduce our adoption fees to $50.00!  But nearly another year has already passed and we will soon celebrate another year here at the shelter.  Please don’t continue to overlook me (us) again.  Won’t you please consider me (us) today?  Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Ames Photography.

Adoption Fee:
 $50.00

Full Description: Yes, it is true!  I also entered the shelter nearly 4 years ago as just a small kitten with my sister.  We spent almost 2 years here waiting for a forever home.  We became quite the hit during our stay as we were the party planning girls.      Finally, the day came and I was adopted; with my sister no less!  We spent a wonderful year with a woman who loved us to pieces!  She spoiled us rotten!  When her health began to decline, she decided to bless us with a second chance to find a forever home.  When we came back to the shelter, staff here decided to make us part of the Cabin Fever team and reduce our adoption fees so we wouldn’t have to spend another year here at the shelter.  Nevertheless, our one year anniversary is upon us.  Please don’t continue to pass me (us) by.  Won’t you please consider adding me (us) to your family today?  Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Ames Photography.

Full Description: Rescued from the streets on the 100 block of 15th St. NE,  I am now enjoying the comforts of being safe and sound here at the shelter. A total cuddle buddy, I’m full of purrs to share and have thus far made a great lap warmer for several staff members.

Longing for the day when I can once again experience the joys of having my very own family, I’m hoping it won’t be long. I promise to behave this time round and ignore the temptations surrounding the front door when it flings open.

Primary Breed: Domestic Short Hair

Birth Date: 2/2012
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee:
 $50.00

Full Description: Rescued from the streets in the 100 block of 15th. NE, I eluded the Animal Control officer for 24 hours before my transport to the shelter. It is thought by shelter staff that I have a sibling here at the shelter.  Like me, she too is still here and her name is Skittles.

While each of us is just as joyful as the other, I am the more independent of the two. With me, I request that you take the initiative when wanting quality bonding time.It’s not that I am not a fan of affection, I’m just not the kind of feline to seek it out. Both intriguing and captivating, I argue I’d make purrfect fit in your home.  Won’t you please consider me today? I have been transferred to the  Humane Society of North Iowa therefore, please call them at 641-423-6241 for more information. Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Birth Date: 1/15/12
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee:
 $50.00

Full Description: Originally adopted from the shelter at just three months old, it unfortunately did not work out.  I was brought back a mere 2 months later.  You see, being such a young kitten, I was full of the typical kitty antics.  I can’t help it!  I so enjoyed unrolling the toilet paper zipping through the house for no good reason.  I am looking for a family that will appreciate my silliness as just me being a kitten.  After I am properly tuckered out, I will seek you out for a nice warm nap on the sofa or recliner.  In exchange for a forever home, I promise hours of comic relief and snuggle time.  What do ya say?  Do we have a deal?  Won’t you please consider this comical cat today?  Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Full Description: A foster care graduate, I was originally the calm one  out of a litter of six.  Since my arrival at the shelter, things have drastically changed.  I am now the king of rambunctious through and through!  Very interested in the other cats here, I can often be found hunkering down close to floor with my tail just a twitching…before I finally decide to make my move to initiate play.  I absolutely love my belly rubs and will lay on my back like a baby in anticipation of one…or two…or more.  Won’t you please consider me today?

Birth Date: 4/2010
Declawed:  No
Adoption Fee:
 $50.00

Full Description: Dumped by my previous owner, I was elated to be at the shelter with staff that loved and cared for me.  I quickly decided not to dwell on the past and instead look to the future.  I  wasn’t at the shelter for a month when I was adopted with 2 other feline friends.    A month and a half later me and my 2 feline friends were then returned to the shelter due to our new owner’s allergies.  Here I sit; waiting.  I am a good girl, smart and independent, I know better than to go looking for trouble.  I am more content to snooze in the shining rays of sunshine or on a nice bed somewhere near my favorite person.  Won’t you please consider me today?  Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Name: Bob
Primary Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Gender: Male
Entry Date: 8/20/2012
Birth Date: 2010
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee: $105.00

Full Description: Rescued from the potential perils of the sometimes unforgiving streets, I arrived at the shelter with great expectations.

Because I am such a handsome feline, I’m assuming I won’t be here too terribly long. Instead, I already envision myself basking in the comforts of a new home with a loving family. From this point on, I vow to be satisfied with roaming the confines of my indoor dwelling and dismiss any future notion I have of checking out the great outdoors.

A sociable fella, I’m all about making myself familiar with whoever I encounter and  making it fully known that I enjoy lots of petting and attention. I allow myself to be held for long periods of time and never once complain, all the while purring in sheer delight. A gem indeed, I’d make a great addition one one lucky family. Won’t that family please be yours? Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Domestic Short Hair
Gender: Female
Entry Date: 
9/8/2012
Birth Date: 2008
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee: 
$105.00

Full Description: Rescued from one of the busiest streets in Mason City, North Federal, I was simply trying to find the imaginary mice that taunt my dreams.  I didn’t know what else to do to get them out of my head!  So, on the prowl I went.  It was then that I heard the sound of rescue in the form of Animal Control.  The officer gave me a stern talking to on the ride to the shelter about the dangers of a cat being outside and alone in the mean streets.  Since my arrival the teasing mice have disappeared from my dreams and instead have been replaced with dreams of a loving home.  But, I know better than to go searching for it, as the perfect forever family will indeed find me.  Won’t that family please be yours?   Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.   Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Tessa

TessaName: Tessa
Primary Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Gender: Female 
Entry Date: 9/10/2012
Birth Date: 2007
Declawed: No  
Adoption Fee:
$105.00

Full Description: When I first arrived at the shelter, I was picked up on 14th St. Se.  It was quickly realized that I probably had an owner because staff knew that a cat weighing in at nearly 20 pounds couldn’t have been on the prowl for very long!  Calm and laid back, staff were puzzled when no owner stepped forward to reclaim me.  Then one day, luck decided to show her face and I was then transferred to the Humane Society of North Iowa.  Shortly thereafter I was given a new job:  Office Cat.  I begin my day by laying in the middle of the shelter manager’s desk on top of her large stack of paperwork; she does a fabulous job of working around me.  Then, when the shelter opens, I head out front to assist the customer service staff with customers and volunteers.  Man oh man, this place gets busy sometimes!  When things slow down, I head over to the executive director’s office to bid her good day and chat for a few minutes.  She is still working on finding an outfit big enough to fit me, even though I always tell her I am not interested in modeling!  Goofy gal anyways!  After that, its nap time for this gal, and I head to my bed near the office manager’s desk and take a power nap.  I work hard here to keep everyone in line and I argue that I do a very good job!  Won’t you please consider hiring me today?  I have been transferred to the Humane Society of North Iowa. Therefore, please call them at 641-423-6241 for more information.   Photo courtesy of Ames Photography.

Gender: Female
Entry Date: 10/20/2012
Birth Date:  8/14/2012
Declawed:  
No
Adoption Fee:  
$115.00

Full Description: Hiding for my life at Big Blue pits, I shook with complete fear whenever anyone tried to capture me. What I didn’t know then but have since learned is that no one was trying to capture me at all. Instead, their only intent was to rescue me and take me out of harms way!

Having arrived at the shelter still somewhat fearful, I’m sure you will agree that my mindset is indeed visible by way of my photo. Don’t be fooled though; I am coming around nicely and am quickly learning to love every single experience this world has to offer.

I absolutely love watching the goings on outdoors from my kennel with a window view, and I’m rarely left alone by staff and volunteers. It seems like all they want to do is hold me, hug me, and give me warm gentle kisses.  Not that I’m complaining though. I’ve already gotten used to it and find that I look forward to such interaction each and every day. Both easy on the eyes and pleasing to the heart, I ‘m ready to meet my forever family today. Won’t that family please be yours? Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Birth Date: 2007
Declawed:  No
Adoption Fee:
 $105.00

Full Description: Three guesses as to where I was found…and the first two don’t count!  You’re right; I was found in Gracious Estates mobile home park and I am yet another example of how seriously folks out there are in regards to making sure all those who have lost their way find safety at the shelter:)

A bit on the chubby side, it is easy to relate to how I earned my name. Tis’ true, I have rarely missed a meal and can’t say I’m looking forward to missing one anytime soon. Granted, I may need to lose a pound or two but I still get around just fine and can chase imaginary mice with the very best of felines.

Blessed with an affectionate demeanor, I’m not shy about sharing my love with others. I warm up nicely to new people and am most always on my best behavior. I keep a very clean litter box and have a knack of respecting all cats I come in contact with. That’s just how I am; it is the way I was raised. Looking forward to an introduction to my forever home, my bags are packed and I’m ready to go!  Won’t you please consider me today? Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Gender: Male
Entry Date: 12/1/2012
Birth Date: 2010
Declawed:
No   
Adoption Fee:
$105.00

Update: Ever heard stories about animals in shelters so smart that they figured out how to let themselves out of their kennels and then free their buddies? Well turns out that I am one of those cats! I am so lonely and desperate for companionship that I have figured out how to open my door and climb into my friend’s kennels. The staff is truly amazed at my intelligence and determination. They have tried, unsuccessfully, to keep me inside my own kennel; but they smile when they find me cuddled up to my new friends and wonder how on earth I got there. I am a very special cat with some great stories to tell!       

Full Description: When a kind resident in the 400 block of South Fillmore noticed me suddenly hanging around her neighborhood, she realized I had lost my way. Despite the fact that her lease did not allow for animals, she rescued me any way and attempted to find my owner while she kept me hidden in her basement for the day. Shhh!

An absolute prince of a cat, shelter staff are convinced I won’t be here long. As beautiful on the inside as on the outside, I am indeed the kind of cat many people dream of calling their very own. Easy on the eyes, I’m also extremely calm and laid back. Not much startles me but everything intrigues me.

Anxious for the opportunity at building a new future with a forever family, I am certain to quickly become a valued and cherished member. One look into my deep piercing eyes is all it will require as  I’m sure to steal the hearts of all.

Full Description: Rescued by Animal Control in the 300 block of 20th St. SE, my catting days are over! I no longer choose to put myself in situations where my life is put in jeopardy. Instead, I vow to be content within the confines of my own loving household with people who cherish me.

A beautiful feline, I was blessed with a heart of gold.  Without a mean bone in my body, my only fault, if you will, is that I can’t get enough of my favorite person.  For example, I will lay on your warm lap for as long as you will allow it.  Should you move from room to room doing your daily chores, don’t be surprised if I am right at your heels.  Come bedtime, please be prepared to share your bed with me because you can count on me being in it with you at bedtime.  Ha ha!  Truly a gem, I’m anxious to find my forever home.  Won’t that home please be yours?  Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.   Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Declawed:  
No
Adoption Fee:  
$105.00

 Full Description: When my previous family abandoned me in what used to be our home, and simply moved on with their lives, I was left in complete shock! If I thought I had been neglected before, this was indeed a true testament to how the people I believed loved me most really felt about me!

Having arrived at the shelter with my fur completely full of mats, I was immediately given a “haircut”.  Staff were downright disgusted when they realized they were having to cut mats out of my coat as large as the size of an adult hand!! The result? An amazingly adorable cat! Oh yeah, the lion will sleep well tonite!! Wimoweh, Wimoweh, Wimoweh!! :) Won’t you please consider me today? I have since been transferred to the Humane Society of North Iowa.  Therefore, please call them at 641-423-6241 for more information.  Photo courtesy of Ames Photography.

 Full Description:Rescued from the season’s first snowstorm in the 1300 block of North Madison, I’m relieved that I won’t have to be searching for cover anytime soon. Instead, I am warm and safe at the shelter with some mighty fine folks.

Described by intake staff as being extremely friendly, I am indeed. One dose of attention from you and I’m all over it wanting to be massaged and caressed until I become putty in your hands. And purr?  Oh yes, I can… and do…loudly! In fact, shelter volunteers argue I was blessed with a “motor mouth.” Incredibly attentive, I’d make a nice addition to just the right family. Won’t that family please be yours?  Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.

Full Description: When I suddenly fell out of a rental car being serviced for an oil change, you can imagine the sheer surprise of the technicians!

It’s anybody’s guess where I actually came from, but all agree that I am most deserving of a loving forever home. A petite little gal, I’ve got plus-sized purrs for all I meet. Unlike some felines, I am most tolerant of having my nails clipped and must admit that I enjoy the process because it awards me closeness with my groomer. A sweetie who can’t be denied, I encourage you to please consider me today!

Shelter staff have been awesome and I now have my very own kennel from which folks can view me and see for themselves just how beautiful I truly am. Anxious to meet my forever family, I’m the kind of gal who comes off a little fearful at first but my fears are easily calmed with reassurance from those I most trust. Described as being a “talker”  I began communicating from the moment I first arrived. A cuddler once calmed, I assure you can’t go wrong with me. Won’t you please consider me today?

Full Description: Rescued by a kind soul, I have quickly emerged as being quite the talker since my arrival here at the shelter.  Indeed, when staff was doing my intake paperwork I was telling them all about it!  From my initial rescue and how cold I was trying to survive the bitter winds to my arrival here and the nice blankets and yummy food I was immediately gifted with.  Having since been moved to the general population room with all the other cats, I am also having many memorable conversations.  I am still on my hold time but if I am not reclaimed I will be made available for adoption.  Won’t you please consider this chatty kitty today?  Please call the Mason City Stray Animal Shelter at 641-424-3617 for more information.Photo courtesy of Arickx Photography.
