Helen came into the Wichita Animal Shelter as a stray that was trapped on a golf course. She was brought to the shelter and where she wasn't reclaimed. Helen sat angry at the world around her as her time ticked away on death row. The stress induced URI in Helen and her chances of getting out alive dwindled to a slim halt. Unfortunately, most rescues have no room or not enough qualified fosters to deal with an angry sick cat. Thankfully, we where able to make space on our team to get Helen to safety so she could get well and decompress. We know now a little more about Helen as she's sat in our care. She was previously altered so she was previously someone's cat. We don't know why Helen was out on that golf course but we know she definitely needed help. Helen is definitely an inside cat and probably has lived her whole life inside. We feel lots of here fear probably stemmed from being outside in the scary world. She grew defensive probably at that time and the traumatic experience of being trapped threw her in an overload of emotions. She was then taken to the shelter which drove her already high emotions into overdrive and shut down feeling the world was out to get her. Helen has taken some time in a foster home to get re acquainted with the world isn't all bad. She's been accepting that now she's once again safe from a scary world who threw her into a fear based panic. Helen would prefer to be an only cat but may be okay in a large home with a lot of space and appropriate orientation. This country club girl is hoping to once again win over the hearts of a forever family as the independent woman she is! Dog Friendly: No Cat Friendly: Cat selective and in moderatation Kid Friendly: Older kids only who respect boundaries.

Additional adoption info
For us, the adoption process begins the day we take a dog or cat into our rescue. It’s a huge responsibility, taking in a lost soul and promising them a happy life, but we are pretty proud of the forever families we’ve helped create because our adoption process is so thorough.
The first step in adopting is to fill out the adoption application. This helps our volunteers understand what kind of new friend you are looking for, and allows us to identify any issues that would prevent us being able to place certain animals in certain homes. For example, breed restrictions in your town or apartment complex, etc…
The Beauties will conduct a vet check to make sure the pets you currently have are all up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed or neutered. We will also contact you to set up a home visit, where we can make sure that the home you have meets the needs of the animal you are interested in. Example: fence height for dogs who are jumpers, stairs for dogs who have mobility challenges, etc… We try to troubleshoot any potential problem areas and offer friendly advise so that our ultimate goal, a forever happy match, can be achieved.
After the application process is complete, the real fun begins! It’s time for Meet-N-Greets! We have a professional dog trainer on our board of directors, and we can schedule her assistance in helping you with dog-to-dog introductions while you are searching for your new family member. It’s amazing how often the existing family pet has a little something to say about who they want to spend time with and having a pro help out makes the potential for a successful intro go through the woof! We mean, roof!
Once you have decided on the dog or cat of your dreams, all that is left to do is sign the adoption contract and pay the fee, which includes all vaccinations, microchip and spay/neuter.
