Bunnie Page's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Longhair | Color: | Black (All) | Age: | Young |
| Sex: | Female | Hair: | Long |
Bunnie Page lived on a farm as a barn cat for one year, and one day appeared with damage to her front legs resulting in an inability to use them. She lived this way, untreated for two years. One day, the woman who owned the barn went to check on her, and found that her husband had removed the ramp from the barn to her safe loft, trapping Bunnie for four days without food or water or a way to get down. The woman took Bunnie to the vet, and the vet called a former Tree House admitter, who promptly called us. Fortunately, we were able to do an emergency admission. For the first few months, this lovely girl now spent her time in our Executive Director’s office. In order to help her feel more comfortable in the front room, we are slowly acclimating her using a large crate. She’s nervous, and obviously at a disadvantage, but very sweet. Make sure to spend some time with her!
Shelter Info...
Tree House is a humane organization that promotes the inherent value of every animal and strives to educate the public about proper and responsible animal care, with a focus on the care and placement of stray cats with special physical and emotional needs. We are committed to finding every healthy and treatable animal a home.
Tree House was founded in 1971 and since that time we have expanded and enhanced our programs and services to become the largest, no-kill, cageless shelter for sick, injured, abused and neglected cats in the Chicagoland area. To date we have found homes for nearly 14,000 cats. In addition to our focus on the rehabilitation and adoption of stray cats, we offer many other valuable programs and services, including our Free Spay/Neuter Program, Pet Loss Grief Support Group, Humane Investigations Team, Youth Volunteer Program, Animal-Assisted Therapy, Behavior Hotline, Pet Food Pantry, and Education Outreach Program.
At Tree House, trained adoption counselors interview prospective adopters to understand their needs, and then adopters are escorted to the Adoption Floor to choose their future friend. Adopters are encouraged to take as much time as they need to find a cat. All adoption applications stay on file for three months so please don't feel that you need to rush to choose a companion cat right away.
Your adoption fee of $85 covers the cost of your cat's care at Tree House including: spay or neuter, deworming, flea treatment, FIV and FeLV testing, AVID microchip, veterinary examination, and all necessary vaccinations. We also give a 30-day health guarantee on all of our adoptions.
ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS
* A photo I.D.
* A second I.D. with current address and phone number (we recommend a phone bill).
* If you rent, we need your landlord's name and phone number, or a copy of your lease stating that you are allowed to have cats.
* All children under 12 in the household are required to be present for the entire adoption process.
