Marzipan was one of six cats leaving in a backyard/alleyway. All were friendly cats who had been dumped. When we rescued him and took him to the PCCC clinic ( www.phillycats.org) we discovered half his tail was damaged from bruns or chemicals and broken further down. Poor Boy. He was in pain. We asked the feeder about his situation and she said some kids on the street had tied a firecracker to his tail and tried to set ift off !! But Marzipan was a trooper. He was tested for Aids/Leukemia and came otu negative. He was neutered and had to have his tail amputated. Marzipan came out in style and now sports a cute litttle bunny tail. Marzipan loves the safety and security of being indoors now and is learning that all people are not mean like the kids who hurt him. A little shy but will blossom with a kind heart, a warm home and some more TLC . If you would like to give Marzipan one more of his 9 lives, please email Kathy at: greenstctl@aol.com We will send you an adoption agreement and make plans for you to visit with him.
Please email Kathy at: Greenstctl@aol.com for an adoption application We will make an appointment for you at the foster home to meet the furry ones you are interested in.
Green Street Rescue is located in Philadelphia and focuses on rescuing stray and feral cats in the city. Our rescued stray and abandonded cats MAY require more TLC at first while they learn to trust humans again than owner-surrendered pets. We are an official non-profit organization. In addition to our adoption services, you can also contact us if you are caring for a colony of cats. We will train and provide you with resources for trap-neuter-return-manage (TNRM). Green Street Rescue is NOT a shelter, but a network and rescue service. We help to trap feral cats, rescue stray and abandonded cats. We make sure they see a vet or are taken to our low cost clinics for rescues ( see www.phillycats.org) . They are tested for Feline Aids and Leukemia, vaccinated and spayed/neutered. After which, we will match unwanted, unloved and abandoned cats with FURever homes with open doors and warm hearts. If you are looking to foster or adopt, please let us know and we will help you find the new love (or loves) of your life. And consider adopting a pair--it's twice the fun!! If you are interested in just fostering, please advise as we are always in need of foster homes. We thoroughly screen our potential adopters. If you're interested in one of our fabulous felines, the adoption process entails: a completed application, vet reference (if applicable), landlord approval or proof of ownership, interview, home visit, and a $75 fee to cover expenses. Email us for an application. Our rescue consists of foster homes, so you would need to make an appointment to meet your future feline. We do not have a facility.
Call for an appointment. Our foster homes are scattered around the city and the suburbs.
