My story

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

This little girl turned up in a suburban neighborhood and, luckily for her, a good samaritan took her in. Bella turns out to be friendly, social and loving human companionship; it was just a few days before she was sleeping in bed.

Bella's favorite meal is breakfast but she will wait patiently if the human is busy. She is definitely a window gazer and will spent a great amount of time just looking at what is going on outside. When sleepy, Bella is particularly fond of a nice fluffy spread or blanket but when awake she will follow caregivers around and loves to be petted. At her vet appointment, Bella was exceptionally calm in the waiting room even with cats meowing, dogs barking and a crate of rabbits placed along side of her.

At her recent vet appointment, it was discovered that Bella had already been spayed so clearly she was someone's pet at one time. Bella is up-to-date with all her vaccinations and has been flea treated. Her date of birth is approximately February 2023.

Bella is FIV positive. Most cats with FIV live a long and normal life although Bella would definitely need to be followed annually by a vet to be sure she maintains her current good health. FIV is only spread through deep bite wounds so there is a very low possibility of transmission between cats in a household. Nonetheless, any prospective adopter with non-FIV positive cats might want to check with their vet before bringing Bella home.

Adoption Guidelines:

- You must be 21 years or older.
- All animals in your home must be up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed / neutered.

We aim to provide high quality care for the well-being of rescued cats and dogs until they are placed in forever homes. All animals are regularly vet checked, fully vaccinated, spayed / neutered and microchipped. They are routinely treated for fleas and worms as well as any medical issues.

Except for a limited number of cats fostered at our headquarters, our adoptable animals are cared for in loving volunteer foster homes. We get to know the pets’ personalities and needs very well, striving to make the best possible match for both animals and adopters.
