Social media miracle helps senior cat find home

Tuesday, Nov 18th, 2014 | By Dr. Marty Becker

Sometimes, reading my email is like Christmas – full of joyful surprises! That’s how I felt when I heard from the Berea Animal Rescue Friends, letting me know Nama, a senior cat whose human had passed away and who I’d shared about here, had been adopted by someone who’d seen my Facebook post!

I’m so grateful to have been given a platform that lets me help animals, but I’m even more grateful to all of you for your sharing, caring, and compassion. Keep it up – the animals and I are counting on you!

And a big thanks to our friends at Embrace Pet Insurance, who were caring for Nama as part of their new office foster program, where one of my team members saw her during a visit to their headquarters. She raced right over to the phone and texted me Nama’s photo and story, and said, “Can you help?”

The rest is history, and a big “happily ever after” for Nama and her new family — including two other senior cats!
