Hope

This pretty, wide-eyed girl has been described by Doug as "one of the fastest cats in the sanctuary."

She was trapped as a little kitten by Carol and Lisa along with her siblings Domino and Gus Gus and their mother, shy feral Joanie. Lisa remembers them from that time as "a wily bunch" and that it took "many long hours over the course of about a week to catch them all." The father of this little cat family is our handsome Hudson, trapped around the same time and with a similar amount of effort.

Debbie describes the now grown-up Hope as a cat who is "very sweet and loves to be petted, but does not like being picked up."
