There's a lot to learn when you have a new pet. Our sister brand, The Wildest, is here to support you—with new pet checklists, virtual training, and expert guides. Sign up for free.
Valerie is the resident shelter cat. She has been here since the beginning. She has a collar that says "queen" because she is the queen. She loves to be loved on her terms. She also loves to bite on occasion, not to be mean, to let you know she i the ruler. She is picky about her food. She would eat her weight in treats, but she isn't allowed to any longer because of health issues they cause her.
Valerie is nearly 8 years old and only known the shelter life. We all love her and she loves some of us. If you are the special person interested in an older, quirky, cantankerous at times cat and would like to let Val see what it is like to live in a home, let us know. We will set up a meeting -- and while we ensure all our cats go to good homes, Val's adopter may get a little extra vetting that most, but it would be wonderful for her to not have to live in a shelter.

Additional adoption info
Our kitties are ALWAYS spayed/neutered and vaccinated before we put them up for adoption.
The adoptee will need to fill out an application and be approved, then they will be contacted regarding setting up an appointment to meet our available cats and kittens. If we feel it necessary, we may request a home visit. We want to make sure the adoption is a good fit for both owner and pet.

We have adoptable cats and kittens at Petland in East Rome and Petsense in West Rome, GA or by appointment. We keep our shelter location private so that we do not have kitties dropped off with us.

More about this rescue
Floyd County has the 3rd largest intake of cats in the state, including all Atlanta-area shelters. Floyd Felines was created to stop the weekly euthanasia. We pull sick cats and young kittens out of Floyd County Animal Control, now known as Public Animal Welfare Services, and take them to our private shelter where they are able to get necessary attention. We also pull hundreds of healthy, adoptable cats and kittens to be transported to Northern rescue partners to have higher chances of adoption. This work opens kennels at animal control so that it is no longer required to euthanize for space.
We also have a working cat program, where we match up “feral” cats to approved, outdoor homes where they can control the mice and snake population. These cats are usually some of the first to be euthanized at shelters, so we are thrilled that we are able to provide hope for their futures.
