My story

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

Say hello to Susie! This gorgeous senior girl is on her weight loss journey and is ready for a new forever home! Last year, Susie found herself at a veterinary office for euthanasia because her family couldn't handle her obesity and sanitary needs. The vet couldn't bear to put an overall healthy animal to sleep and reached out to Susie's foster family for help. Susie arrived at her foster home at a whopping 35 pounds! She is on a strict diet and has lost 10 pounds so far. Her adopter will have to assist her with her weight loss journey by feeding her a specific diet food and encouraging exercise.

Susie is young at heart and loves teaser wands and string toys. She enjoys catnip, cat scratchers, and naps. Her favorite napping spot is anywhere in the warm sunshine! When she isn't napping, she is following her foster parents around the house - even to the bathroom! Susie is a GIANT cuddle bug! She enjoys snuggling up to her foster parents whether it be in bed or on the couch. She loves getting pets behind her ears and on her white chest. She will grab your hand softly so you don't stop petting her chest. She sometimes will boop your nose to get your attention and let you know she wants pets!

Due to her weight, Susie is unable to properly groom herself which causes her to have sanitary issues. She needs to have her booty wiped or she can leave marks on her bed or blankets. Her foster parents find it helpful to shave her backside every so often. She is tolerant of it because she gets rewarded with a treat afterwards! Once Susie loses more weight, she will be able to groom herself better.

Susie does not get along with other cats but she tolerates dogs. She would do best with older children or children who respect her space. Susie can get sassy if you touch her belly or tail area.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have an adoption application to learn a bit about the home our cats will be going to and the family's motivation for adoption and expectations about pet ownership. We also have an adoption contract, which includes a no declawing and indoor-only clause along with a vet promissory note that ensures you will continue with the medical care and spay/neuter if needed.

We DO NOT do any out of state adoptions except on the NC border on a case-by-case basis.

We require a donation of $120 for adoption of unaltered kittens with a PTV Contract. All kittens receive vaccine series and wormings as well as medical treatment as needed. The adopter is responsible for obtaining their rabies vaccine and spay/neuter if the kitten is not of age at the time of adoption. We can provide resources for low cost clinics that offer these services.

We ask a donation of $25 to adopt Career/barn cats.

We require a donation of at least $140 for adoption of Spayed/neutered cat.

Bonded pairs adoption donation is $200.

Sometimes we require rental checks or home inspections. We always have a Meet n Greet to make sure everyone gets along. We encourage bringing the whole family!

More about this rescue

Our mission is to improve the lives of displaced cats and reduce feral cat population in Hampton Roads by socializing outdoor-born and feral kittens for adoption into loving forever homes. We are a VDACS registered 501c3 nonprofit, founded in 2014 with over 60 foster homes.

Our heart is in TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return of ferals), where cats are fixed, vaccinated, ear tipped, and allowed to live out their lives without reproducing. We are advocates for advancing legal and social acceptance of TNR in Hampton Roads. Our unique feral kitten socialization program has a 90% success rate in socializing feral-born kittens to become loving, in-home pets.

We are always seeking fosters, volunteers, transporters, and trappers to join our team!

We also appreciate donations! Find our most needed items
