My story

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

Date of Birth: 4/26/2020
Adoption Fee: $100.00
Date Posted: 4/26/24

Hi! My name is Rowan. My brother, Ryker, and my sister, Rhapsody, and I just arrived in Georgia a few days ago. We were in Tennessee in a place called "animal control". Our human family could no longer take care of us so they took us there. Somebody told me that we would be "euthanized" if someone didn't come and get us. I don't know what that means but it sounds so scary! Well, we are safe now and really happy in our foster home. I am a super sweet boy who loves nothing more than getting attention from my humans. I am a little shy when I first meet new people. I may hide in a cubby hole and just watch you for a little bit. If you come on over, I will press my head into your hand and gaze at you with my stunning green eyes to let you know I am glad you stopped by to see me. Before you know it, I will be prancing across the room to greet you and get lots of pets. I will rub against your legs and stay right beside you if you sit on the floor with me or invite me onto a chair with you. I like to touch my nose to your face to sniff and show you how much I like you. I am a gentle, calm boy who just wants to be your friend and companion. I would enjoy going home with my sister, Rhapsody, because she gives me lots of confidence. However, it will be OK for me to join your family on my own as long as I have another feline to be my friend or you have lots of time to spend with me. You should know that I am FIV+ but it is no big deal. I can live with other cats without risk of transmission. You see, the only way to spread the virus is through deep bite wounds. I am a lover, not a fighter, so that would not happen. Research shows that FIV kitties live normal lives, both in quality and duration. My foster mom attached some links so you can read a little more about FIV. I will need for my new family to be patient with me when I first come home because another change will be a little intimidating. However, I will quickly learn that I am safe and loved. Please come see me soon...it will be wonderful to meet my forever family.

More about this rescue

Pippi’s Place Pet Rescue is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to reducing the number of unwanted cats and kittens through the support of local Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs as well as placement of available felines in permanent homes.

We will rescue animals who are homeless due to owner surrender, endangered due to abandonment/neglect/abuse, and those at risk of being euthanized at area shelters.

We will place feline companions in loving homes following a comprehensive screening process which includes ensuring a good match between the animal and prospective adopter as well as educating potential adopters about the responsibilities associated with bringing a cat into their home.

All cats and kittens will be spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care including any necessary treatment, and will be placed in caring foster homes until the time of adoption.

We will work closely with local shelters and other rescue organizations to promote the importance of spaying/neutering companion animals. We will work with these agencies to develop a network of supporters and volunteers so that we may create a better world for homeless animals.
