Meet our very handsome mini-panther, Sam! This little warrior has endured much more than a kitty should have to face. He survived on his own in the North Georgia mountains for the first four months of his life. He was then surrendered to the local animal control facility. He lived in a cage for the next four months of his life passed over again and again. At 8-months-old, he was finally adopted. Sam tried to be the best kitty for his new family. He fetched balls just like a puppy to the delight of his caregivers. He snuggled close to them at night. Despite that, it would not be little Sam's "happily ever after". Sam's new family declawed him despite warnings about the pain that it was cause him. Sam still tried to be a a good boy but he was a typical older kitten who occasionally jumped on furniture and knocked things onto the floor. His human mom became frustrated that he did not lay quietly by his side like his 8-year-old feline brother. The family decided that euthanasia was the best solution because "going back into a cage at the shelter would be too hard for him". A kind person contacted Pippi's Place to ask for help on Sam's behalf. We could not turn our back on him. Sam is currently in a loving foster home. He is an energetic 1-year-old who enjoys games of chase and wrestling with other young adults. He ADORES cuddling with his foster mom. If she goes too far out of sight, he finds her and "talks" to her in his best kitty voice to let her know that he would like to spend some time together. Due to the fact that Sam spent much of his time outside as a young kitten, his foster mom believes that it would be best for Sam to be able to move freely between the inside and outside in a safe, protected area due to the fact that he is declawed and cannot defend himself. Sam has retained his fun-loving, sweet spirit despite the trials he has experienced in his young life. He continues to love without limits and spread joy everywhere he goes. Will you be his true forever family? Few kitties are more deserving.

More about this rescue
Pippi’s Place Pet Rescue is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to reducing the number of unwanted cats and kittens through the support of local Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs as well as placement of available felines in permanent homes.
We will rescue animals who are homeless due to owner surrender, endangered due to abandonment/neglect/abuse, and those at risk of being euthanized at area shelters.
We will place feline companions in loving homes following a comprehensive screening process which includes ensuring a good match between the animal and prospective adopter as well as educating potential adopters about the responsibilities associated with bringing a cat into their home.
All cats and kittens will be spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care including any necessary treatment, and will be placed in caring foster homes until the time of adoption.
We will work closely with local shelters and other rescue organizations to promote the importance of spaying/neutering companion animals. We will work with these agencies to develop a network of supporters and volunteers so that we may create a better world for homeless animals.
