Suzy's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Longhair | Color: | Gray Or Blue | Age: | Adult |
| Sex: | Female | Hair: | Long |
I am already spayed, housetrained, a special needs pet, up to date with shots, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and good with cats.
Suzy came from a really bad situation. When she went to the vet, she was tilting her head to the side, because of a severe ear infection and ear mite infestation. The infection and ear mites destroyed her left eardrum and she is deaf in her left ear. Because she was in such pain from the ear problems, Suzy is still a bit shy with people. However, once she knows you, she loves you. She loves to be brushed, especially on the long hair around her face and cheeks. She loves to be petted. Suzy's favorite pastime is sitting on her cat tree watching the birds. She spends all her time doing just that. And usually she shares her cat tree with other gentle cats, because Suzy also loves other cats. She was picked on by a dominate cat in the household, but if a cat is sweet and loving, Suzy loves them back. Suzy will need someone who will give her the time to warm up to them. She is a sweetie, but she needs to feel comfortable with you first. Suzy does still tilt her head to the side from habit. Suzy is are about 7 years old. Suzy has been spayed, vaccinated, treated for worms/ear mites/fleas, and is FeLV/FIV negative. If you would like to adopt Suzy, please go to the 'Adopt' page of our web site, www.bandocats.org, and download an application. You can either email it back to us at bandocats@columbus.rr.com or fax it to 614-873-0972.

Rescue Group Info...
Black and Orange Cat Foundation consists of a small group of volunteers working on trap-neuter-return (TNR) efforts for feral cats and spay/neuter services for stray cats in the Plain City area. Plain City is a rural farming community that is situated in two counties--Madison and Union counties. Because we are a farming area, there are a huge number of "barn cats" that need to be fixed. We are the only group in this area working on an ongoing basis to spay and neuter feral and stray cats.
Never heard of TNR? Trap-neuter-return involves humanely trapping feral or "wild" cats in traps baited with tuna or other yummy kitty foods. The cats, once trapped, are then transported to the vet to be spayed or neutered. We desperately want to cut down on the cat over population problem that is overwhelming so many shelters and TNR is helping us do just that.
But while the cats we trap are feral, there are often kittens or tame cats in these colonies that can be placed in homes. The kitties on these pages have all come from sad situations. With a lot of love, medical help, and plenty of good food, these guys have all become lovebugs looking for forever homes. Won't you please consider one of them so they will never be lonely or hungry again?
We have adoption events at the PetSmart on Sawmill Road in Columbus the fourth Saturday of every month from 12-2. We also have two cages at this PetSmart and you can stop in and meet our cats and fill out an application there.
We require that adopters fill out an application, which can be downloaded from our web site, www.bandocats.org under "How You Can Help" and "Adopt." Once it is filled out, you can email it back to us at bandocats@columbus.rr.com or fax it to 614-873-0972. Our adoption fee is $75. If you adopt two cats or kittens, we only charge one adoption fee. We do not have a shelter, so once you are approved, we will make arrangements to allow you to meet the cat you are interested in through their foster. All cats are in foster homes.
We work mainly in Plain City, Ohio, which is divided between Madison and Union Counties.
