My personality

My story

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

Abby is an energetic and fun-loving cat!

At three years old, she's just as adorable as she was as a kitten, and she still has plenty of curiosity and an uncanny ability to get into mischief. She's always looking for the next thing to do.

So we feel Abby needs an experienced adopter who can keep her safe and healthy! We also feel she would do best in an adult-only household.

Abby is very affectionate. She loves kisses, hugs, and sitting/snoozing on her foster mom's lap.

Abby was rescued with her sister, Ariel, and both are currently being fostered in a home with two other cats. Abby tends to have a "take charge" personality, but she gets along with everyone. She would do very well as a companion for a cat (or cats) already in the adopter's home.

The HPC adoption process involves a foster period (to ensure a good "fit") before the adoption is finalized. Since HPC visits the home during that time, potential adopters need to be in the Bradenton/Sarasota (Florida) area.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Our application requests information about the adopter, other members of the household (including pets), and the home environment.

2.

Approve Application

Before an application is approved, we contact personal and vet references.

3.

Meet the Pet

If the application is approved, we schedule a "meet and greet." If that goes well, we move to the next step.

4.

Home Check

We take the desired animal to the home. Everyone in the family, including other pets, must be present.

5.

Take the Pet Home

If the home visit goes well, the family fosters the animal for several weeks. Adoption occurs if HPC and the family feel the "fit" is good.

Additional adoption info

Our application can be found at the bottom of the "Adopt" page on the HPC website. All animals are examined (with blood work and any other testing needed), altered, and vaccinated prior to adoption. The adoption fee is $100 for adult dogs, $50 for senior dogs, and $50-75 for cats. We are a volunteer-based sanctuary, so it may take a day or two to process your application.

Go meet their pets

We have three locations in the Bradenton/Sarasota area of Florida: Myakka City, East Bradenton, and West Bradenton. We attend community-wide adoption events, and we also schedule our own events at local pet stores.
