My story

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

Approximate Date of Birth:1/15/2019

Description:  

Hello! My name is Cory and I am a handsome little ginger guy who would like to be your quiet companion. With your gentle scritches and petting, on my head and neck my inner extrovert will slowly emerge, however, and it will not be long before I start chatting to let you know how much I like your affection. Once I am ready for long strokes from my head to my tail, I might even show you my "turn and twirl in circles" move. I have also been known to jump and dance at the wand toy! I am an easygoing guy who likes other easygoing types (both kitties and people!) and I imagine that my purr-fect family is out there waiting for me!

Words to Describe Me: Quiet, non-aggressive, comfortable with other easy-going kitties and enjoys their presence

Favorite Place to Sleep: On top of my scratch pad, under the rocking chair, on the sofa, or in the darkened guest room on the bed

Favorite Toy: A wand toy with a mouse on the end, or a plastic ball to chase.

Perfect Day: Gentle chin scratches before breakfast, some play with the wand toy, a leisurely nap. Wake up, stretch, Repeat!

Kitty's Likes: Gentle forehead scratches which turn into full length strokes and scratches to the tip of my tail! And I love to be brushed!

Kitty's Dislikes: I'm learning to be more comfortable being picked up or sitting on a lap.

Fastest Way to Get Me to Purr: Scratch my chin and my cheeks!

Favorite Treat: "Gravy" (water mixed with my pate), or Churu!

Job Title in Foster: Mr. Mellow - Keeping a calm, relaxing vibe going for the household kitty clan.

When I Grow Up, I Want to Be: Your quiet, easygoing buddy who appreciates your affection, enjoys a chat and some wand toy action for a little exercise!

Other Info: Cory is a super sweet boy who is remembering again that people can be his best friends and that life as a house cat is pretty darn nice! He is working on his shyness, but he is truly a gentle guy and has made daily progress with his social and conversational skills. A routine of pets, scratches, brushing and wand play spread throughout the day have helped him transition to his new life, and he is comfortable with other kitties who just go about their business and allow him to go about his.               

  • Good with Cats: Loves cats.

  • Good with Dogs: Unknown

  • Good with Children: Can live in a house where children occasionally visit, as long as the children are pet-friendly. 

  • Companion Animal: Requires a companion if left alone for long periods of time.

Health information: All cats and kittens will be spayed or neutered, FeLV / FIV tested (as indicated by age), receive vaccinations appropriate for age, preventative deworming, and microchipping prior to adoption as appropriate by age.

Cory is FIV positive which is not contagious to other cats.  FIV positive cats live with FIV negative cats. Learn more about FIV .

Adoption Process:   Our adoptable animals are located at one of our adoption centers or in foster homes. We require interested parties to apply prior to meeting to ensure a good match. Applications can be submitted on our website at  www.savingonelife.org/adopt/apply.

Additional adoption info

Some of our "ready to adopt" felines are located at one of our Arizona PetSmart locations. https://www.savingonelife.org/adopt/locations/

We also have a small satellite operation in San Diego with adoption events on select Saturdays at the PetSmart Escondido store.

We highly recommend applying in advance in order to increase your opportunity at adopting the kitty you are interested in. Applications are processed in the order they were received. If you have questions, please email adoptions@savingonelife.org.

More about this rescue

Saving One Life is a completely foster based, volunteer run, never kill rescue. Our motto is that although we can't save the world, it makes a world of difference to the ones we do save.

If you find a litter of kittens or your cat accidentally got pregnant - please contact us if you are able to foster them at intake@savingonelife.org. We cannot take in more animals without foster homes. All supplies and vet care will be taken care of - all you have to do is open your home and heart to them until they can find homes of their own!

All of our adoptable animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, tested for felv/fiv (Cats), dewormed, and microchipped. Adoption fees range depending on the animal's age and breed. All adoption fees assist other animals in our care - we do not have any paid employees. We are a completely never kill group that provides sanctuary to any "unadoptable" animals that come into our care including hospice care.
