Meet Tippy Toes!

Tippy is a total cuddle bug who loves being carried around the house like a baby, especially if chin scratches are involved. He adores gentle head rubs, enjoys catnip, and rewards his people with loud purrs, sweet leg rubs, and nonstop affection. He’s incredibly social, confident, and friendly, not shy at all, and does wonderfully with kids. Rescued from a shelter at just 5 weeks old, Tippy was diagnosed with nerve damage in his left back leg, but that hasn’t slowed him down one bit. He does everything other kittens do, climbing, chasing, pouncing, and playing, just with a little extra flair. Beep is bonded to Tippy, and the two must be adopted together. They snuggle, play, and truly bring out the best in each other. Tippy provides constant love and comfort to Beep, and you’ll often find them curled up together, hugging during naps or sweetly grooming one another. Tippy is fully litter trained, eats both wet and dry food, and uses a smart feeder and water fountain like a pro. Because of his back leg and nerve injury, it’s important that Tippy maintains a healthy weight and is not overfed, as this helps reduce strain and supports his long-term mobility. One important note: Tippy is a darter and very curious, so adopters will need to be mindful around doors and ensure he stays safely indoors. Running outside could be dangerous for him due to his back leg.

NTCR Programs

Foster care and adoption programs

NTCR takes in cats/kittens from Collin County Animal Shelter, rescues abandoned felines from other locations and cats surrendered by owners to the extent of our resources and of foster home availability.

NTCR works primarily with Collin CountyAnimal Shelter Services. We appreciate their hard work. To the extent of our resources, we do our best to take in our system cats/kittens that are injured , too young to survive on their own, pregnant/nursing mother cats etc… foster them, vet them and place them through our adoption program in loving permanent home.
Spay/neuter public education

We firmly believe in educating and assisting the public about the need to spay/neuter their pets. NTCR works with Texas Coalition for Animal Protection to assist those in need of finding a low cost clinic and a low cost source for spay/neuter. We hope, in the future, to help low-income and fixed income families have their pets fixed at no charge .
