Parker was a big, strong cat who came to us as a stray to be fostered. He was at least 10 years old – maybe more. No one wanted him, and his story was a sad one with tales of fights, tough times and abandonment. We took care of him and after a few weeks, he began to grow on us. He fit in so well with our other cats, teaching them and playing with them, and he clearly did not want to leave, so we adopted him. His very presence enriched our lives every day, and he was as happy as he could be. Seven months later, on Feb 1st 2005, he was inexplicably hit by a car and killed in our otherwise quiet and cat friendly neighborhood. That was the day we started this animal rescue, Whiskers Hollow. We expected Parker to retire with us and live out the rest of his years knowing he was deeply loved. Tragically, however, his retirement was cut short. Now, with Whiskers Hollow, other animals will be given the opportunity to be loved and cherished beyond their wildest dreams. No animal should ever be treated as if they don’t matter. Our goal is to show these animals that they do matter, through kind treatment and thoughtful placement, and to do so in the name of Parker, whom we loved and will always love as much as we could ever love anything.
