My story

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

Hi, I'm Seahorse. I'm the formally-dressed half of a bonded pair with my sister, Quail. We came to TCR after being surrendered from a home with too many cats. I am the most shy but also the most curious of the two of us. When you bring us home, you'll likely see me first but touch me last! My foster meowmy's nickname for me is Squid, because I like to run away when someone approaches me, and she says my long black tail is like a trail of ink left by a startled quid.

I like to remain in low places and find my way into compact, dark spaces like under dressers and the bottom of bookshelves. I appreciate environmental noises less than my sister, but my foster meowmy said I became bolder once she left a clock radio for us in our room, so a little something but not too loud will help to put me at ease. Anything I can do, my sister does better-and I like it like that; I look to her for guidance in everything I do.

My ideal home is one with older teens or adults who will respect my boundaries and aren't very loud. I will do well at first if confined to a small room with a radio going. I would love to have a home with a lot of scratching posts, scratch pads, and comfortable nooks and crannies to hide away. My sister and I also like to have a long hallway where we can run up and down to get in our morning exercises at 3am. We'd appreciate a bigger bed so that we can curl up together when it's time to sleep.

I am about two years old. I have been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and have tested FIV/FeLV-. Do you have a calm and patient home for me and my sister? Please apply for us today!

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Typically we talk a little with potential adopters to find a cat who is a good fit before sharing the application.

2.

Approve Application

We check over the application including checking vet references and doing landlord checks.

3.

Interview

We spend more time chatting with the adopters to specifically go over any questions from the application and details about the specific cat.

4.

Meet the Pet

Potential adopters have a meet and greet with the cat or kitten in the foster home.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

At the meet and greet, if all goes well, the adoption contract can be signed, the fee can be paid, and the pet can go home!

6.

Pay Fee

7.

Take the Pet Home

Additional adoption info

We try to do our best to make sure we find good fitting, responsible homes, without wasting a lot of our time. Our app has a lot of screening questions which help eliminate potential adopters who might not be serious (they usually just don't return the app), or not a good fit, which is why the in depth interview happens once the app is returned.

More about this rescue

We are a small but dedicated 501c3 nonprofit cat rescue specializing in making one person's garbage kitten another person's forever cat.

Our mission is to reduce feline suffering and overpopulation using a combination of TNR and adoptions. We foster and socialize whenever we have the resources to do so, including behavioral cats and kittens who might otherwise just be candidates for TNR.
