We love Nashville Cat Rescue alumni updates! Send them to [email protected]
“I saw the recent Facebook post about Kevin and Waffles, and thought I'd share my own alumni story with you.
In March 2021, I adopted a male tuxedo cat named Lazarus from Nashville Cat Rescue. I renamed him Elmo, and he is doing great!
At the time, I was looking for a companion for my two-year-old tuxedo cat, Ellie (also a rescue). Over the years, Elmo and Ellie have become very close and formed a wonderful bond. They're always together - usually in the exact same position - so I've nicknamed them "The Bookends." I've attached some photos of them together. Elmo is the one with the larger black smudge on his nose.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate Nashville Cat Rescue and the incredible work you do. Thank you for all that you do for these cats and for the families who love them.”
