“EXCUSE ME. I HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT.”

Meet Zelda. And judging by this photo, she has a few things she'd like to get off her chest.

First of all, why hasn't anyone adopted her yet?

Second, why are there perfectly good laps sitting around without kittens in them?

And third, has anyone considered that the world would be a better place if everyone just handed out Churu treats?

Zelda has opinions. And we'd appreciate it if you'd take them seriously.

Despite her very expressive little face, Zelda is actually a gentle, thoughtful sweetheart. She's a silky-soft, purring cuddle bug who likes to observe her surroundings before deciding it's time to climb into your lap for kisses and snuggles.

She's affectionate without being demanding, independent without being aloof, and communicates with the most adorable little crackly meow.

When she's not holding important press conferences, Zelda enjoys chasing lasers, pouncing on wand toys, and accepting Churu treats as compensation for her hard work.

Zelda would thrive in a quieter home with older, cat-savvy children and would love a feline companion. Better yet, adopt her with one of her siblings—Zane, Taylor, or Sting!

And now, Zelda has one final question:

Why are you still scrolling when you could be filling out her adoption application?

Apply to adopt Zelda through New Hope Animal Rescue at NewHopeAnimalRescue.org.

Not ready to adopt? Zelda would also like to know why you haven't signed up to foster or volunteer.

The princess has spoken. Meeting adjourned.

Zelda currently resides at our adoption center at the PetSmart location located at 12812 Shops Pkwy #400, Austin, TX 78738

Do you have any plans Saturday? If you are free, please swing by our adoption event hosted by Tomlinson's Feed in the Allandale Shopping Center!

And do we have some VERY special guests for you this Saturday!

CATS: Remember the six beautiful Ragdoll mixes New Hope recently rescued from a heartbreaking case involving 14 cats in unlivable and unsafe conditions? (Thank you to Siamese, Oriental and Snowshoe - SOS Cat Rescue and Rehoming for rescuing seven!) Now their journey is no longer about what they've endured, but about the lives waiting for them on the other side of it.

Their recovery has involved extensive grooming, shaving, repeated baths to remove the deep staining from their coats, diagnostic bloodwork, and repeat testing for FIV, FeLV, and heartworms. We're especially relieved to share that all six tested NEGATIVE for heartworms on their follow-up tests! Come to meet them to explore adoption or just to give them some much needed love.

And then there's Michi kitten! Michi is an extraordinarily special little kitten with hypothyroidism and dwarfism. He's a tiny fellow with a personality all his own, and we can't wait for you to meet him! Because Michi lives in a foster home rather than one of our adoption centers, opportunities to meet him are limited. He'll be making a special appearance Saturday from 10 AM to noon, so don't miss your chance to meet this remarkable little guy!

DOGS: We will have amazing, special dogs at our event! While some of our dogs will be their 10-2, others will attend with their foster families for scheduled two-hour visits. If there's a particular dog you've had your eye on, please email contact@newhopesaveslives.org so we can confirm their attendance and the best time to meet them.
