My story

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

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, PLEASE FILL OUT OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AT TCRESCUE.COM/ADOPT

Cheeseslice is a neutered young adult orange and white tabby born approximately 9/20/22.
 
Cheeseslice is a very confident cat in his foster home. He enjoys playing with toys, scratching up cardboard boxes, and he loves to chew up string- so make sure your running shoes are tucked away- his foster had to replace her shoe string! He very much enjoys the attention of his foster caretaker, and also loves to pester the dogs in his foster home. He is 100% comfortable around cat-savvy dogs, and often plays tag with the terrier in the foster home, running around the couches, hiding, and then pouncing out. Cheeseslice loves treats, particularly fish paste sticks (think Churu, Tiki Cat Stix). He will take dewormers and pills no problem when you have that liquid gold treat around him. He also likes to snuggle on the bed in the morning, and will come to remind you that he has not had his breakfast yet. 
 
He has a beautiful orange and white coat, of a medium length, though he does not require brushing. He also has a little smudge of orange color right off of his nose that looks like a little slice of cheese fell on him. Cheeseslice would probably do well in a home with respectful children, and would do best with his brother Cheesepuff, but can go as a solo cat. His ideal situation would have another animal in the home he can snuggle and hang out with while his humans are away. He has been waiting a very long time for a loving home and would love a place to call his own!

Cheeseslice tested positive feline calicivirus and feline herpes when he was two months old and is likely a carrier for these feline viruses so the best home for him will be a home with someone who understands the possibility that he could have "breakouts"- however, in the year he has been with his foster, he has shown NO outward symptoms of the viruses. The foster's own cat was also tested for the viruses one year after they had lived together in the same household, and it came out negative. As long as vaccinations are up to date, there's a good chance Cheeseslice can move into a household that already has resident cats, with no viral exchange.
Cats with feline herpes or calicivirus may exhibit symptoms or flareups ranging in severity, randomly or in times of stress throughout their life.

Cheeseslice is being fostered in Gilroy.
 
Adoption fee of $65 covers deworming, rabies and one FVRCP vaccination, microchip, and neuter surgery.  
If Cheeseslice is adopted with one of his foster siblings, the total adoption fee is only $75 for the pair!

More about this rescue

Tailchaser Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, no-kill, animal rescue organization based out of the Bay Area, CA, dedicated to rescuing cats and dogs (and sometimes more) from shelters where they are in danger. We believe in removing barriers to adoption and educating pet owners and potential adopters about responsible pet ownership, the importance of spay / neuter, positive behavior training and good nutrition.

We are a foster-home-based organization and we do not have a shelter or physical location that adopters can visit. All of our rescued animals are cared for by volunteer foster families in their homes. This allows us to get to know the animals better, and helps us assess what type of home environment they will do best in.
