Lucy is a tough little kitty who survived a likely hit-and-run accident and somehow managed to crawl her way into the backyard of a cat rescue group board member’s home. She recovered like a champ, jumping and playing without any sign of pain after two months of fostercare. Her open-hearted positive spirit is infectious.
Every night Lucy entertains with the zoomies, after which she cuddles up to her humans for a good night’s sleep. This cutie is forgiven for bringing attention to her foster mom’s flabby jowls and neck by kneading biscuits there in a trance-like state nightly. At 4 months, Lucy looks like a sleek, miniature black panther with a beautiful satin coat, but she’s 100% cuddly kitten for sure. She thinks every new kitty she meets is ready to play, no matter how often the grumpy old resident cats at her foster home hiss and growl. She has no fear, this very social and curious cutie. Her ideal forever home will have a similar aged kitten for her to play and grow up with. In her decades of fostering experience, Lucy’s foster mom has never met a more resilient and fun kitten.
Medical notes:
The complex fractures suffered before rescue appear healed. Even with a possible malunion of a left hip fracture, Lucy walks with a normal gait and no apparent pain. Also no pain reaction when her hip is extended, though slightly less ROM on the left side.

Additional adoption info
If an individual is interested in a cat or kitten listed, they will complete the first three pages of the Cat People of Oahu (CPO) Adoption Application and submit to cpoadoptables@gmail.com. Please review the fourth page but do not complete it at this time.
A representative from CPO will forward the completed application to the cat's current foster parents. The foster parent will then be in contact with the prospective adopter to set up a time to meet the cat. If the foster parent opts to offer the cat to the interested party and the interested party decides to adopt, then the CPO Adoption Contract will be reviewed and signed by both parties and the adoption fee will be paid directly to the foster.
Please note that there may be a short waiting period between the meet and greet and a finalized adoption and that filling out an application and meeting a cat does not guarantee that you will be selected to adopt a specific cat.
Cats and kittens listed are in foster homes across the island. The location of a specific animal will be disclosed once you inquire, but please be prepared to possibly travel to meet your cat or kitten of interest.
Adoption fees range from $25-$100 per cat and are determined by the foster.

More about this rescue
Cat People of Oahu is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to help people help cats. We began as a Facebook group in September of 2017 and it is the largest community cat related group in the state of Hawaii. We provide information, education, and resources for individuals who own or care for pet, feral, and free-roaming cats.
We advocate for spay and neuter, rescuing, fostering, adoption and trap-neuter-return. We believe in providing a well-organized and well-maintained group for cat lovers and those new to the cat world - where they can post pictures and videos, ask for and receive reliable advice, advertise foster cats and kittens available for adoption, and much more.
Additionally, we provide opportunities to fundraise as a group for cats in need in order to cover things such as medications, feral/pet/foster cat sterilizations, and hospitalizations and surgeries for sick and injured cats.
We are always in need of monetary donations, in-kind donations, volunteers (fosters, trap-neuter-return, transportation), and people to spread our name far and wide so we can continue to help cats and kittens in need on Oahu.
