Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ONYX (ID# A013407) is a neutered male, black and silver Domestic Shorthair. Onyx was about 3 months old when he arrived on June 17, 2009. ONYX wants to be your pal! He came to us undersocialized. However, with our first cuddling session, we knew he’d be a loving pet. He’ll snuggle in your armpit, if you let him, and chirp in meow-ese in your arms. When it’s time to play, you’ll not see a faster, bouncier kitten than Onyx. Stand back and be entertained. He loves to play with just about everything, but his favorite toy is his own tail. He’ll have fun with another cat and would probably love a kitty mate to hang out with. Because he may be a bit shy at first, very young, exuberant children would scare him. Expect in a new environment he may hide until he’s comfortable with his surroundings and his new family.
Starting the adoption process you need to be 18 years or older, complete an application http://www.petprojectfoundation.org/catadoption.pdf, be interviewed and it is strongly recommended all members of your household have interacted with the cat to make the best match for everyone, the cat you wish to adopt be an indoor cat, and be able to verify with your landlord that you may have a pet if you are renting. Understand we reserve the right to deny the adoption of any pet for any reason. Also any additional requirements for the specific pet you are interested in adopting needs to be met. We adopt to the best home, not necessarily the first application turned in.
Applications are only accepted by FAX (949-366-4765), mail or in person. Sorry, no applications through the Internet.
Cat adoptions are $85 each and include a spay or neuter, microchip, current shots, flea treatment (if required), "New Owner" folder, and one free basic health examination within 5 days of adoption from a veterinarian on our list.
Please call 949-492-1617 to check if your desired pet is still available or the status of your application. We are CLOSED Tuesdays. Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM. Monday, Thursday, Friday, & Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM. Sunday: Noon - 3:00 PM. We are very proud of our shelter, it is clean, welcoming, freeway close, and was voted "Best Place to Adopt" by the Orange Coast Magazine!
