Meet Rowena, a 1.5 year-old mother who’s finally ready for a life of her own. Before coming to ARF, Rowena was surviving outdoors on her own. A local grassroots rescue noticed this sweet, friendly girl and safely brought her in, but quickly realized she had recently given birth and her kittens were nowhere to be found. Knowing her babies were still out there depending on her, the rescue made the compassionate decision to release Rowena so she could return to them.
Thankfully, the little family resurfaced later and the rescue team was able to safely secure Rowena along with her three kittens: Sammi, Ruby and Dean. The entire family made their way to ARF, where Rowena settled into a loving foster home to safely raise her babies.
She has done an incredible job caring for her kittens, despite being so young herself. Now that her babies are old enough to become independent and remain in foster care, Rowena has been spayed and officially given the green light to find a forever home of her own.
After everything she’s been through, Rowena deserves a life filled with soft beds, full bowls, sunny windows, and people who will love and protect her. No more worrying about where her next meal will come from. No more dangerous street life. Just safety, comfort and affection.
Rowena is a friendly, resilient girl who’s ready to leave survival mode behind and finally be someone’s beloved companion. Could you be the happy ending this young momma has been waiting for?
