My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Approx DOB: June 2017

Marcus (ID#20026) came to Furry Friends Network as a stray. It was a really good thing he was found too, as it was discovered shortly after taking him in, that Marcus is deaf. While this does make him a bit unusual, it does not slow him down in the least! Marcus is extremely playful and even wears his foster mom out. He loves chasing wands, any kind will do! When he’s had his fill of playtime, Marcus will grab a bite to eat and then settle down in a cat bed in the sun for a good long nap. He especially enjoys a comfy blanket in the bed with him.

Recently Marcus has begun to voice his opinion a bit. When he first came to his foster home, he would open his mouth but no sound would come out. After years of trying, he has finally accomplished a meow that he can be proud of! Due to Marcus’s condition, he would do best in a home with a seasoned cat lover and where there are no small children. Marcus enjoys being with other cats and would do well with a younger kitty whom he could play with.

All cats are vaccinated, dewormed, treated with flea preventative, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, microchipped, and spayed/neutered prior to adoption.

Adoption application, phone interview, home visit, and adoption fee required (+ PA Sales tax). Adoption fees are:
Baby (Kittens up to 1 year) = $125
Young & Adult (1-7 years) = $100

Please also read our Core Values prior to applying, www.furryfriendsnetwork.com/adopt/our-expectations.

If you are interested in adopting a kitty(s), we ask that you complete an on-line adoption application to get the process started. To apply, simply go to www.furryfriendsnetwork.com / Adopt a Furry Friend / Adoption Application. You will receive a welcome email once your application has been assigned to a volunteer processor (this should be within 72 hours of submitting an application). If you do not receive such an email, contact catapplication@furryfriendsnetwork.com. Once your application has been processed (this can take approx. 10-14 days), we will arrange contact with the foster to schedule a time to meet kitties you might be interested in. We are an all-volunteer organization and appreciate your patience during this process.

Foster Homes are needed in order to help more animals like this one. Please consider opening your heart and home to a homeless animal. Check out our website on how to become a Foster Parent! Visit www.furryfriendsnetwork.com and look under Foster a Furry Friend. Furry Friends Network provides our foster homes with food, litter, crates/carriers as needed and miscellaneous other supplies as well as veterinary care.

More about this rescue

Furry Friends Network is a non profit, all-volunteer animal adoption organization. Our philosophy is to help those animals that did not ask to be born, that are often the result of human ignorance. Any animal, no matter its age, can offer love and companionship to the right person.

Furry Friends Network is not a shelter, but instead uses a foster home network to house the animals until permanent, indoor homes can be found, offering second chances at lifetimes of love and happiness. Furry Friends Network also works to help humans understand the importance of controlling the pet population through spaying and neutering.

Furry Friends Network relies on private and corporate donations to help fund our rescue operations and accomplish our mission - to save lives, one animal at a time. Since the organization's inception in 2001, Furry Friends Network has facilitated the rescue, and rehabilitation and placement of approximately 300 homeless dogs and cats into new homes each year. With your support, we can continue to accomplish this mission.

There are many thousands of animal rescue organizations, all working for the same purpose. We hope through our efforts, we will make at least a small difference, and save a few lives in the process.
