My story

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

Sweet Handsome Tuxedo Cat "Sock Man" Seeking Home with Kind Human and Warm Blanket

Please email dcmcats@yahoo.com to meet him! - Looking to help Sock Man find his special person!

This sweet little boy was hanging out with a volunteer a couple of nights ago assisting with staking out cat trap watching for TNR spay neuter at a local cat colony. After having a snack and some pets, he fell asleep on the heated car seat, until a loud police siren went by. He is talkative and affectionate and loves attention!

He is an adorable fellow! He is known as Sock Man and he is really too sweet to be an outside cat! His caretaker gives him lots of pets every day, but he would love to have a home and person all his own. He has been around for at least 2 years, but neighbors say he is 4-6 years old. He is so handsome in his shiny Tuxedo cat suit coat!

He would enjoy a home as an inside cat with a nice window view and can be the only kitty, but he gets along with other cats so could have a buddy cat. He might like access to an enclosed safe back yard or attached catio enclosure for playtimes, but it's not required. Hs only requirements are regular petting times and play activities - and an electric blanket and warm human for cold nights. And some tasty meals and comfortable accommodations and plenty of love, of course!

Please tell us a little about yourself and your household, and your typical daily and weekend schedule, in your reply to for Sock Man! He has been neutered and his caretaker can get him his FVRCP shots, etc. Sock Man says thanks and we do too!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We do an e-mail/phone interview so we can help match you to our adoptable cats. You may also try out a cat to adopt! Adoptions are finalized with an adoption agreement. We hope to adopt our cats only to forever homes, but we will always take back a cat that is adopted from us should the adopter be unable to keep the cat due to unforeseen circumstances.

We also have cats available for fostering! Fosters fill out a questionnaire so we can help match you up.

Our adopters and fosters must be local to the Greater New Orleans area. We do not adopt out of state or transport cats out of the general area.

Hours to view our adoptable cats are by appointment and hours are flexible. Please contact us at NolasArkCats@yahoo.com Thank you for visiting our page and kitties for adoptions and/or fostering.

More about this rescue

OUR MISSION

NOLA’s Ark Cats, Inc. ("NOLA’s Ark Cats") mission is to offer services to the community of the Greater New Orleans area for the care of homeless cats and kittens. Such services include, but are not limited to: daily care and medical attention for homeless cats and kittens (including veterinary care and purchases of food and other supplies); foster and adoption options; neuter-trap-release for feral and homeless cats; and expertise and assistance to the community and to other caregivers of feral colonies. NOLA’s Ark Cats works to establish a network of animal caregivers whereby people can share ideas/information and offer assistance to each other. NOLA’s Ark Cats further aims to educate the community, and to invite participation by the community in the care of cats.

We are an ALL VOLUNTEER organization, so any and all assistance is greatly appreciated. Here are some ways that you can help us and our family of furry kitty critters:

Foster: Provide a temporary home to an adult or younger cat or two.

Donate: Food, scoopable litter, and comfort items (toys, blankets, crates, beds) are always needed!

Medical Care Help: We have an account with a local veterinarian, so donations can be made directly to our account for vet care, and you will know that every cent went toward the much needed care of the cats.

TNR Program: We are also looking for kind people with back yards and porches to accommodate feral and semi-feral outside cats for our Trap-Neuter-Return trapper and cat caretaker friends.

We cannot accept cats from the general public but we are happy to help with advice on how to find homes and screen potential adopters.
