My story

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

Hello world! Roji here. I am really excited that my foster mom tells me we can officially start looking for my forever home. In case you haven't seen my story, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a 5-year-old male kitty who was found with a really bad limp. I went right to the vet where unfortunately they found that I had not one, but TWO, broken legs. Can you believe that luck? Those fractures had already healed, so there isn't a lot we can do, but I take some joint supplements and medications that make my life a whole lot easier. It's just some powder you can put in my food. Since I'm so food motivated, it is really easy. Sometimes my joints do hurt a little bit and I can get grumbly, but 99% of the time I'm a total ham that just wants to lay in your lap and be petted and loved on. I enjoy chin scritches and butt scratches, and will really take any affection and attention you want to give me. In fact, I love affection and attention so much that I don't want to share my people with any other animals. I'm a low-key, laid-back guy and I'm not about all that bouncing-off-the-walls fuss. You can usually find me loafing on a bed watching out the window. And, I really love watching TV with you too. I get along well with other cats who are nice to me, and I'm great at using my litterbox as well. Overall, if you're looking for a mellow cuddle buddy who just wants to chill with you, I'm your guy! Apply today. Adoption fee: $75. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and 30 days of free pet insurance.

NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of cats is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable cats, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each cat or kitten as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our cats based on personality, not by breed label.


Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
