Parker                                     Born 6/14/01


Parker’s name could just as well be George Jefferson – because compared to running loose in the neighborhood, he’s definitely moved on up to that “deluxe apartment in the sky”. And as you can see, it suits him just fine. If you’re into Shadow Cats geneology……Parker is the brother of Martin and Stewart, and the son of Tango. They were all trapped in the neighborhood near the sanctuary. And he’s the wild one of that bunch – he’s rarely seen in the Outback, as he prefers to stay up in the high areas, way back on shelves and in far corners mostly out of sight.

 

That’s just fine – if Parker is happy, then we’re happy. The Outback has something for everyone, whether they want to roam all over or stay mostly in one place. Parker may never know how wonderful it is to sit in a lap and be petted and cuddled – but then, he’ll also never again know the fear and stress of the daily struggle for existence as an abandoned cat on his own. Not every cat wants to be a lap cat – but every single cat deserves to be happy, safe, well cared for, and live life on their terms. And at Shadow Cats we try to find out just what that is for each cat, and do our best to provide it for them. If Parker could talk, he’d probably tell you that with him, we’ve succeeded!
