My story

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

Venus is a lovely patch calico feline, her colors are soft but she doesn't really qualify as a dilute calico. She is very petite and likely will remain so. She currently weighs 5.6 pounds. We estimate her age to be between 12 to 18 months.

Venus lives with 2 large dogs and other cats in her foster home and does very well with all of them! She likes attention and will be a good companion. Her foster claims that she is a VELCRO kitty. She is a snuggle kitty and would be best with children over 5 years of age.

She has perfect litter box manners, is not special needs unless the DEMAND for attention is special needs!

She came to SPCHS as a stray, is current on her vaccines, spayed, micro-chipped and tested negative for FIV/FeLeuk. Venus is actively reviewing applications -- and has informed us that she will give preference to those the indicate that SHE will be the QUEEN of her new home!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The application process....

After you complete an application, there are several things that we will do:

1. We will check your personal references. Please be sure to list two personal references and include a phone number and an email address. (form asks for one; but I like two)
2. If you do not own your place of residence, we will call your landlord or leasing office. Please check with them first to learn about their pet policy.
3. We will call your veterinarian for a reference. We are looking for a history of annual exams, vaccines maintained routinely, annual heartworm tests and monthly preventatives. We require the following:

* All pets in the home must be spayed or neutered.
* If your pet is not up to date on vaccines, please do not submit the application until you have scheduled an appointment with the vet to get your pets current on their vaccines.

4. If you are a 1st-time pet owner, please include the name and phone number of the veterinarian you plan to use.
5. Be sure to call your Vet(s), giving them permission to speak with us.
6. We may need to do a home visit prior to approving your application, or post-adoption.

If these policies and practices are not acceptable, please do not apply.
