My story

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

I'm the smallest of my litter and have 1 white rear foot. I'm the only one in my all-tabby litter of 5 kittens who has black stripes. I'm a sweet, kinda shy little girl who is quiet, but definitely loves attention. I won't shirk any opportunity for pets and hugs from people, there's no chance I would miss out on any loving whatsoever. Even when my bigger brothers are trying to barge in and get all the attention I make sure i get some too. I'm polite, neat and proper, but also playful and curious. I never hide, just call and I will come!

This litter of kittens were born in a garage on Nelwood Street in Houston where momma Fraggle was keeping them safe. People couldn't find the kittens on the same day as they could catch momma, so they spent several weeks there waiting for all to be rescued together. Finally momma Fraggle and babies were reunited in a foster home when the kittens were 3+weeks old. All are rolly polly, and Fraggle and kittens all are very compliant about being handled since the first day in foster.

Additional adoption info

It is our policy to respect the privacy of everyone we work with, thus we do not, for any reason, share personal information of potential adopters or sponsors. Also, because we believe there can be a variety of great home situations for these animals, we inquire only as to the compatibility of the home and the animal, and do not ask for character references of any kind. We ask these questions only to assure the best possible outcome for both animal and adopter.

More about this rescue

Good Neighbors Animal Rescue's mission is to facilitate the resolution of animal issues in Fort Worth and Houston, Texas. We want to prevent our community pets from ending up as a statistic at the shelter. We don't pull animals from shelters. We help people who find strays, who are good enough to take them in, but then need to know what to do next. We are there for owners who need to re-home their pets but don't want the impersonal and unknown outcomes of a kill shelter. We trap feral kitties that live in the alleys and re-home those that tame up, and take tame porch cats to get vaccinated. We assist people who have accidental litters and need help spaying and neutering, vaccinating, and finding safe, responsible homes for them, and help make sure that the offspring don't have offspring of their own!



GNAR IS ALL VOLUNTEER RUN AND DONATION BASED. That means that very nearly 100% of all donations go directly to the animals for vet care, spays and neuters, medicine, food and litter. Once in a while we may buy a ream of paper to print flyers or something for our adoption event table, but even that is usually donated by volunteers, foster homes and other donors.



GNAR's methods are to promote and facilitate fostering, spaying, neutering, adopting, and vaccinating, and to spread out the financial burden of the big-hearted among all of us who want to help.



Overpopulation and lack of enforcement of spay and neuter laws in the South mean that thousands upon thousands of pets are euthanized in shelters that come from your own community. If each person in America took in just one animal, we could solve the problem instantly. The answer is fostering, adopting, spaying and neutering rather than buying from breeders or from people who let their own pets have litters. Pets also suffer and die on the streets from lack of food, shelter, and medicine. Taking them in is the first step in stopping the cycle and preventing the next generation from suffering the same fate. So many diseases are 100% preventable with just one $10 vaccine. It is a needless tragedy each time one dies from feline leukemia, canine parvo, or kennel cough. Low cost vet clinics such as TCAP, Spay Neuter Network and other walk in service organizations are available throughout the Dallas Fort Worth area and people need to pass it on!
