Henry's Story...
Henry is an 8 week old tiny tyke, a ghost tabby (white undercoat with oci-cat markings). He was rescued from the Henrcio Pound after Shelter wo rkers called us in to pick up this little guy–he had been turned in by someone and the shel ter workers said he was simply too young to be there. Henry identified himself right away by stret ching his little short arms out of the cage as far as possible to get your attention. Since his rescue, Henry’s foster mommies taught him to hold his own with dogs (he ended up boss) and enjoy the company of big and li ttle cats in a game of cowboys and indians every day.

Please call CARE @ (804) 288-9797 and ask Andrea for more information on Henry.

Our Adoption Process...
Prior to adoption, every CARE cat/kitten has received a thorough exam from a veterinarian, has tested negative for FIV/Felv (except as otherwise noted), been spayed/neutered, dewormed, given flea preventative, and been inoculated against distemper. Rabies vaccine is given if the feline is over 4 months. Any other desirable medical attention has also been provided. Also, each cat/kitten has spent its rescued time in a private home in foster care being loved and assessed for temperament and personality, needs, likes and dislikes.

After your approval by our volunteers, a legal contract is signed with an adoption donation attached (this donation helps defray the medical costs incurred); and, you receive a free vet office visit at a participating vet within the first week.
Adoption Fee is a Donation.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Henry, a Richmond Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Richmond, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Richmond.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Richmond already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Richmond breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Richmond paves the way for another one to be saved.
