My story

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

Charlie was born on March 11, 2015 in Dallas, TX.  She was found under a HVAC system of an apartment building and was adopted by her current owner immediately.  She is very affectionate.  She has to be between your arms on the desk when you work, and offers her frequent appearance during your zoom meeting. She likes to play with her toys (like 'GoCat Da Bird') loves to flop down on the floor to show her belly. She loves her food, but never seems to gain weight. Underneath her beautiful fur coat, she's still a tiny baby. Her coat is super soft and she grooms herself well.  She spills the magic of making anyone fall in love with her the moment he/she locks their eyes with her. 

She loves to come sit on top of your belly when you lie down to sleep or do yoga (she waits for the Shavasana time (ending pose of yoga practice) and walks up on your chest as if she is claiming her own territory. Her purring is the worlds-best relaxing music.  She was born with dark blue eyes, which changed to beautiful green eyes. She's been always kept up to date with her shots and annual physical, and has clean bill of health. She's spayed and microchipped.  As she is no longer a baby kitten, she would do better at a home without any other pet friends.  Her current owner is preparing to move to Korea to support her mother in her 90's. It was not an easy decision to rehome Charlie, and she is looking for the best family to welcome and love her.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
