My story

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

My name is Elixir. I was rescued from a high volume shelter in October of 2022. I was adopted quickly because I am a total ham but returned several months later. The problem? I was too much for the resident kitty. I don't have a lot of kitty social skills and can be a little too rough when playing. I would do best as an only kitty. I can get over-stimulated and bite when I am insecure. In foster care, I am quite settled and relaxed and I do not bite. I trust my foster mom now and she can even dress me up:) I am VERY playful and LOVE feathers on fishing pole toys. It is easy to clip my nails and I travel in the car well. I don't tear up furniture either! I have super silky, nice fur and I keep myself well-groomed:) I Love pets and will stand up on my back legs to put my face in your hand. I roll around when I get excited and sometimes fall off the bed - oops! I am a great cat but do need an experienced cat owner. I am a BIG SWEET BOY!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential adopters must complete an application and SCP volunteers can help adopters identify cats and dogs that will fit best in their homes. SCP adoption counselors review the applications, conduct in-person interviews and discuss pet care responsibilities with potential adopters. SCP checks applicants' vet references and may conduct a home visit at its discretion. So that the best interests of the pet are served, SCP reserves the right to refuse an adoption to anyone. The adoption fee starts at $110 for cats ($175 for two cats), $190 for dogs and $245 for puppies.

SCP tries to ensure that all pets are healthy at the time of adoption. All are examined by veterinarians when they enter the program. All are vaccinated, spayed/neutered, de-wormed, tested/treated for parasites and disease (such as heartworms, fleas, feline leukemia and FIV) as needed. Cats are vaccinated for FVRCP and FeLV. Dogs are vaccinated for DHLPP and Corona virus. Animals are kept in foster homes to minimize exposure to disease and to help them be well-adjusted. It is the policy of SCP that no cat or dog may be sent to a permanent home before it is fully vetted, including spay or neuter. All of our rescued animals are microchipped.

Go meet their pets

SCP does not have a shelter or an office location. The rescued pets, volunteers, fosters, and adopters who comprise SCP come from all over the Galveston Bay area (mainly north Galveston and south Harris counties). Our adoptable animals are fostered and loved in volunteer homes until a permanent home is found.

SCP has cats and dogs available for adoption every Saturday (cats 10:30-2:30 and dogs 11:00-2:00) at the Petco store in Clear Lake (2410 Bay Area Boulevard, Houston, TX 77058 - corner of Bay Area and Space Center). A few cats may also be seen during the week in the condos at this Petco location.
