Patchy is now healthy, fully vetted and ready for her home. She has learned that the people are okay. In fact, she has become an attention hog! She will come up and look at you until you give her a nice pet. She is quite a talker also, so she will be telling you she's ready. If you are busy she may come up and let you know she is ready for her attention by reaching out to you and rubbing on you until you get the hint. She loves good long strokes. She will purr and you can almost see the smile on her cat face. One thing she still doesn't care for at this point is to be picked up. So right now, it is best to let her come to you, which doesn't take much doing, just call her name. Are you a person who wants a lovely tabby cat sitting on your couch waiting for you to sit beside her? Are you willing to give her some strokes and perhaps throw her some toys so that she can run and play? This is your girl. Come and meet Patchy and see if she will end up hanging out with you at your home? The only way you can be sure is to reach out and set up a meet and greet.

Patchy was pulled from PAWS. They were full and had a long waiting list. She was very unsocialized with people and had little chance of getting adopted as she was. She needed to learn to trust people be receiving healthy food and having her medical needs provided. Floyd Felines stepped in to meet his physical needs and to interact with her to ensure that she learns to love and trust people.

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.

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.
