Socks has been with us a week now and she is settling in a bit. She is still not thrilled with living with all these cats and she is not thrilled without getting personal attention instead of having to share the love. She will come out to volunteers and accept their strokes. On occasion, she will give a hiss, but just to let us know she hasn't let her guard totally down. We so hope she won't have to be here much longer. This is not the place for this girl who has always lived in a home. She gets a lot of attention because of her size, but she doesn't feel any different that any other cat. She'd love someone to come and accept her as a beautiful, plus size woman. Come and meet her and maybe you will be the one to welcome her to your home.
Socks was turned in as a surrender at a vet we frequent and we were asked if we could take her in and find her a great home. Socks is a bit confused about what is going on in her life right now. She gets along find with other cats and she lets people pet her, but not without giving them a hiss. We will work on that.
Socks is a big girl -- Maybe she will lose some weight while here or in her new home. She is ready and would probably settle down much more quickly in a home instead of a shelter. Would you like to give this big girl a chance?? Let us know.

Additional adoption info
Our kitties are ALWAYS spayed/neutered and vaccinated before we put them up for adoption.
The adoptee will need to fill out an application and be approved, then they will be contacted regarding setting up an appointment to meet our available cats and kittens. If we feel it necessary, we may request a home visit. We want to make sure the adoption is a good fit for both owner and pet.

More about this rescue
Floyd County has the 3rd largest intake of cats in the state, including all Atlanta-area shelters. Floyd Felines was created to stop the weekly euthanasia. We pull sick cats and young kittens out of Floyd County Animal Control, now known as Public Animal Welfare Services, and take them to our private shelter where they are able to get necessary attention. We also pull hundreds of healthy, adoptable cats and kittens to be transported to Northern rescue partners to have higher chances of adoption. This work opens kennels at animal control so that it is no longer required to euthanize for space.
We also have a working cat program, where we match up “feral” cats to approved, outdoor homes where they can control the mice and snake population. These cats are usually some of the first to be euthanized at shelters, so we are thrilled that we are able to provide hope for their futures.
