My story

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

For The Cats' Sake

Meet SMOKEY! She is a very special cat that came to us as a pregnant mama in a TNR (Trap, Neuter and Return). She was rather feral towards people (out of fear) but was an incredibly loving mother to her own kittens (who were all adopted into their forever homes). In fact, she was such a stellar mother, she accepted and raised several orphaned kittens with as much loving care as she did her own. SMOKEY has come so far with her human socialization! She may start out shy but really enjoys being pet and loved on once she is comfortable with you. She has not lost her tenderness with other felines and is a favorite with the kittens. She would likely do best in a low to medium energy household where she could lounge and play indoors with a feline friend. If you are interested in meeting/adopting this loving lady, please complete the following form: TO ADOPT “SMOKEY”: https://jotform.com/81848821130152

We do not have a fixed adoption fee at For The Cats' Sake, but instead ask for a tax-deductible donation to our group. On average, we spend at least $125 to cover foster care, testing for FeLV and FIV, vaccinations, flea treatment, deworming and any vet care/medicine that is needed. We ask that you cover as much of the $125 as you can afford, and set a minimum donation at $50. Our goal is to find the best home for each animal, and we feel this policy makes it possible for more people to adopt one or more cats. It is important to us that every adopter can afford to care for their pets properly and give them a home for life.

TNR and a whole lot more...

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process begins with an application which includes vet references and landlord permission for renters. Potential adopters are encouraged to visit the cats/kittens in their foster homes so they see them in a comfortable situation. In many instances a volunteer will deliver the cat/kitten to their new home to assist the family in preparing their home getting the adoption off to a good start. There are no set fees, we request a donation.

More about this rescue

For The Cats' Sake was founded in 2014 in response to a need for TNR in Rappahannock County, Virginia. Since that time, we have encountered many situations where there is no place for the cats to be returned. In other instances the cats are friendly or there are momma cats too pregnant to be spayed, or young kittens that are adoptable, but need socialization and foster care. Currently we have about 40 cats and kittens in foster care being prepared for adoption. All felines are Up to Date on vaccinations and tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV. Depending on age at time of adoption, they are also Spayed/Neutered.
