Ready to be Collared: Robin

NAME: Robin (think beautiful news woman on How I Met Your Mother)

 
OWNER: Position Open, Currently Accepting Applications! (Don't forget, all cats and kittens at BARCS are free to adopt for Baltimore 500 during the month of June. Come get Robin!)

 
AGE: 1 year.

 
HOME: Originally from Lafayette Avenue, currently staying at Meow Manor at BARCS.

 
BREED: Domestic Shorthair tan and black tabby with green-gold eyes.

 
BEST TRICK: Able to gaze deep into your heart with her beautiful eyes; oh, and she can stand on her “tip toes” to reach any treat you might have.

FAVORITE ACTIVITY: Purring in your lap.

 
FAVORITE FOOD: “Anything, as long as you are nearby while I eat.”

 
FUNNIEST MOMENT: Totally ignoring all attempts by shelter volunteers to get a “face shot” then just as they stopped jumping around and making faces, looked right at the camera as if to say, "Oh, you wanted a FACE SHOT?"

A LITTLE FIND: Robin isn’t the loudest, flashiest cat around, but she remains optimistic that her person is out there and will come for her. She has been here at BARCS for over two months and has seen a lot of other cats all around her get a home, especially now that there are so many kittens, but she still is full of grateful purrs for any attention and looks hopefully (if quietly) at each visitor. She was very skinny when she first arrived at BARCS but eats well and has filled out to a normal weight.

 
IF ROBIN HAD A MOTTO, IT WOULD BE: I know there is someone out there for me, I’ve got so much love to give.

About Jill Rosen
Jill Rosen is a reporter at The Baltimore Sun. During her nearly 20 years in journalism, she has covered news and features — including a surprising number of stories that involved animals. There were the dog Christmas carolers in State College, Pa. There were the hounds who toured with a production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The story of a preschool teacher at Baltimore’s Father Kolbe School who had to replace her class guinea pig, who died over the winter holiday. A harrowing tale of what it was like to make homemade pet food ...

Though her clean freak of a mother refused to allow her to get a dog, she has had a number of pets through the years, including goldfish named Bob and Fingle, a betta fish named Ichabod, a wild rat terrier named Wendel, who she shared with a roommate, and, currently, sweet, sweet kitties named Leo Sesame and Milo Pumpkin and a little rescued pup named Teddy Bean. She, Leo, Pumpkin and Teddy Bean live in Baltimore.
