My story

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

Fondly referred to as a gentle giant by his foster dad, Dino is ready for his forever home! Dino was living in a neighborhood in the city for quite some time and being fed by kind humans. Dino quickly showed his desire to live indoors, following people around the neighborhood as they took their dogs on walks. He was showing up at peoples front doors, begging to be let inside! Just one day before a huge snow storm, Dino was rescued and brought to Forever Fortunate Felines for a chance at a forever home!



Dino hasn’t earned the nickname “gentle giant” for no reason! He is a big guy with a heart of gold! Dino may be a big guy, but his meow wouldn't tell you that! He has a tiny little meow like a kitten! Dino loves being pet and being around his people. To show you he wants love, he’ll rub his head all over you for attention! He loves full body pets with both hands and leans right into it. He loves treats and spending time lounging around. He can be a bit of a lazy guy, and would make a great companion for someone looking for a low-key buddy to spend their days with. 



Dino has recently really started to show his playful side! As a street cat, Dino had no exposure to toys and didn't know what to do with them. Fortunately, he has befriended playful cats in his foster home, who have shown him the ways! He now loves toys and can be found emptying out his toy basket to find the perfect toy for a play session with his buddies. Dino does great with other cats and is happy to befriend cats of all personality types, chill or playful! 



Dino was born with underdeveloped eyelids that caused his eyelashes to irritate his eyes. Dino had surgery to remove the eyelashes, but still has scarring to his eyes as a result. He has full vision however, he just has a unique look due to his abnormal eyelids. Dino also has half of a tail, likely due to injury or frostbite while on the street. It doesn't cause him any pain, it is just a quirk that makes him extra special and adds to his charm! His foster dad loves to say he looks like a bobcat with his large stature and short tail! 



Being the chill guy that he is, Dino would likely prefer a home on the quiet side, where he can relax peacefully! He loves other animals and would do well in a home with another cat or even a calm, respectful dog. He loves his cat buddies and would love a cat buddy in his forever home to spend the days with, but he would also be happy as a solo cat. He would also do well in a home with respectful children. This special guy would be the perfect addition to your home and would love to be your new best friend.

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in Forever Fortunate Felines.  We are very happy to have the opportunity to match you with your purr-fect cat-panion!

Once you complete the online application using the below link, you will be able to discuss and ask questions directly to the foster parent.  We believe this is a big advantage to you as our organization is completely foster based, we really understand our cats personalities at a deep level.  This helps to ensure a great match with you and your family.

In order to get the process going, would you kindly fill out our detailed online application located here: 
http://www.foreverfortunatefelines.org/adopt

Completing our online application does not commit you to adopt from our rescue.  Rather it helps us to understand your requirements and match you with the best possible cat or kitten.

Once you complete the application and it is approved, we can set up a meet and greet and if all works out, you may bring the kittens or cats home the same day.  Please make sure to bring an adequately sized pet carrier with you to your meet and greet.  We recommend a pet carrier which opens from the top as this is the easiest way to place a cat inside a carrier.  If you do decide to adopt, we do expect you to take home your cat the same day as there are so many cats and kittens which need to be rescued from high kill shelters, we almost always rescue a new cat or kitten the very next day.  If it is not possible for you to take your cat or kitten home the same day, we do charge a boarding fee of $10 per day for supplies and to encourage you to take your newly adopted cat home.  We will board for a maximum of 3 days if needed to allow you time to get needed supplies.

Our adoption fees are listed at the link below. This fee includes full vetting, flea treatment, de-worming, spay surgery, FeLV and FIV test, microchip insertion, and vaccinations up to date for the kittens or cats age.  We are able to PayPal or most major credit cards for the adoption fee.

We have streamlined our adoption process to make it easy!  Everything from the application, to payment, to the contract is online.  Additionally, all of the cats records will be placed in your free Petlovers account at petstablished.com to keep organized.

With Warm Regards,
