Alumni feature: "I'm so glad I took a chance on Fritz"

Editor's note: Today's guest blogger is Tracy Kennedy, who shares her adoption story.

I have to say that I've never considered myself to be a so-called "cat person." I was raised in a dog-centric home with a poodle and a schnauzer, and the few cats I had met at friends' homes were always so shy and withdrawn from me that I had started to assume that I must exude an anti-cat aroma.

Then I met Snuggles.

He certainly lived up to his name when I spent my Kitty Calming session with him last Sunday. Snuggles was constantly cuddling up to me, slowly making "air biscuits" with his white mittened-paws while I scratched his head. I had never met such an affectionate feline and I ended up spending over an hour just tickling his belly and brushing his back.

Over the next couple of days, I couldn't get him out of my head. I kept checking the Richmond SPCA's adoptions section for cats, fully expecting to see Snuggles get picked up and unsure of how I'd feel if he did. Jealous? Happy? It was hard to tell. As Monday and Tuesday both passed and my anxiety over him grew, I realized that I had fallen for the little guy and decided Monday night that I was going to adopt that cat.

The following Tuesday morning went by entirely too slowly. To say I wasn't nervous would be a huge lie. I feared the unknowns of cat ownership: what would I do if Snuggles started overtly hating me? What if he became an incorrigible furniture destroyer and territory marker? What if the canned food I bought for him wasn't to his liking? My "what if" fears were countless and gave me pause even as I pointed him out to the Adoption Counselor, but getting to spend time with him again before adopting him calmed some of them and reminded me why I was there.

After an hour of form filling, I happily paid Snuggles' adoption fee and carted him home.

To my great relief, Snuggles settled in almost right away. The Friskies I had bought was exactly to his liking and he gobbled it up that first night. The laser pointer I had picked up is now his favorite toy and he meows for it whenever he gets bored. Whenever I've needed to study, he's always been quick to jump up beside me and cuddle against me while I work, and at night he's started sleeping on my feet. He's constantly purring and curling his tail, so I take it that he's happy with his adoption, too.

Since he wasn't responding to his old name, I did end up renaming him "Fritz," though in reality, he ended up choosing it himself because it's the only name he perks up to. Whenever I call for him, he comes to me now just like a little dog and then starts begging for cuddles, which I'm more than happy to give.

I think it's safe to say that Fritz/Snuggles has found his forever home. Thank you all for all of your help and guidance during this adoption process, and for taking care of Fritz while he was between homes. I'm so glad that I took a chance on Fritz, he's an amazing cat.

Cats no longer suffering for medical training at UVa

Cats are no longer being used in pediatric training at UVa, and the university has found homes for the three cats formerly used in the program. Angus, pictured, is available for adoption at our own humane center.

There appears to be good news in connection with the effort to gain the agreement of the University of Virginia Medical Center to cease using live cats for the training of medical students in connection with intubation of infants. We have provided our readers with information on this topic in the past in a guest blog post written by Dr. John Pippin with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. We have joined with them and others in urging the UVa Medical Center to cease this outdated practice which is very traumatic and painful to the innocent cats and not necessary since satisfactory simulators exist that can train students without cats being injured and traumatized.

What we know from information provided to us by Greg Mazur, also of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, is that UVa has quietly stopped the practice of using cats for intubation practice and has now adopted the cats that they had for that purpose to good homes. While the university is not expressly acknowledging any change in their policies, which they had vehemently defended in the past, they appear to have, in practice, ceased the inhumane use of the cats.

We are delighted at this change and we congratulate and thank the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine for their focused efforts to stop this unnecessary and inhumane practice. We would welcome UVa’s acknowledgement of an actual change in policy and a recognition that the cats did not need or deserve to be treated this way with other acceptable alternatives being available but we are happy to at least know that these innocent animals are no longer suffering and are in the sort of homes they deserve. Our sincere thanks go to UVa Medical Center for doing the right thing.
