Friendly Felines Need a Home All Their Own

Do you believe in fairy tales? Then stop by and visit two kittens named Prince Charming and Cinderella at the local Animal Welfare League on Saturday! 

Prince Charming is as handsome as Cinderella is beautiful. Charming is a tuxedo with stunning markings and Cinderella is a tortie with a white coat.

They are both about a year old. These kittens were brought in as strays but have taken to one another, as if they have lived as part of a family before.

Now this pair is waiting for their fairy-god-mother or -father to come along and make their dreams come true. It would be a truly happy ending if these kittens could stay together, although they may be adopted separately.

Both kittens have their routine shots, and she is spayed and he is neutered.

To visit Cinderella, Prince Charming, or any of the other adoptable animals at the West Orange Animal Welfare League, stop by Pet Adoption Day on Saturday between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the Alex Caprio Animal Control Facility, at 311 Watchung Ave. (behind the Thomas Edison National Historical Park). 

The shelter's normal hours are Monday through Friday from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. 

For more information, call the Animal Welfare League at (973) 736-8689, or send an email to woawl01@aol.com, or go to www.woawl.petfinder.org.
