My story

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

DOB 6/26/14 - Tiny is extremely sweet and loves pets and attention. She loves belly rubs and all other kinds of rubs and drools happily when pet. She enjoys playing with the laser light and small, soft balls. She is a tripod and her back right leg is mostly missing; she is believed to have been born this way. Tiny gets around fine. She is able to jump but doesn't seem to like to, and would probably appreciate some pet stairs. She would do best in a quiet home with no other pets where her person is home a lot and there is a predictable routine. She is not a fan of other cats.
Tiny was adopted out 5-6 years ago and returned to us this year for litterbox issues. She was called Akasha in her previous home and does know her name and respond to it. While in foster, Tiny/Akasha used the litterbox consistently. On 2 occasions, she peed next to the box--once when her foster mom was out of town for a few days (she was being cared for by a family member in her normal space) and another when she had to be confined to her kennel to get medication and she wanted to come out and wasn't allowed. Otherwise, there were no issues. Tiny needs to have her litterbox(es) cleaned daily and does very well with an unscented, clumping litter.
Tiny had recent bloodwork done and the values were in the normal range. She had a dental in July 2025 and had 2 teeth removed. All other teeth are healthy. Tiny eats Purina One hairball control food and prefers Sheba wet food.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first step in the adoption process is coming into the shelter to meet a cat. Once you have found the perfect match for you, you will fill out a one page adoption application. We will then do any necessary vet checks to make sure that if you have any existing pets that they are up to date on all vaccines and have been seen for regular vet care. Once you have been approved one of our volunteers will contact you to set up the adoption. The last step is one of our volunteers will bring the new member of your family to you and you will sign an adoption contract. We do not spay/neuter or give rabies to kittens under six months of age. If you adopt a kitten under six months you will be required to spay/neuter and give them their rabies at your expense. This will be in the adoption agreement. The adoption fees are $90 for one cat/kitten and $140 for two. All cats have been tested for feline leukemia and FIV, had their distemper booster, rabies if over six months, had fecal testing done and been de-wormed, they have been flea bathed, and have been spayed or neutered if over six months of age.
