My story

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

Sweet, cuddly Betty would be perfect ... if her poop chute wasn`t a bit slow.

Betty’s bowels have been x-rayed and she spent a night at the vet for observation. The diagnosis: there is nothing visibly wrong, her intestines just need to develop some more. She strains in the pan and leaves little poops on her travels through the house, think Hansel and Gretel, only browner. She leaves 2-3 peanut M&M sized poops here and there and an occasional poop in the pan. The trail is easy to clean up as the morsels are pretty firm. She gets meds three times daily to help the brown stuff move and she takes her meds like a trooper. Betty is on high-fiber prescription food. She may be able to stop taking her meds entirely when she (and her poop chute) have finished growing; her foster parents are happy to say that in the months they have had her, Betty has gotten better at leaving the poops in the pan.

Now for the good stuff! Betty is gentle, playful and cuddly. She loves wand toys, chases balls all over the house and when she`s all tuckered out, she will bake biscuits next to her foster mom or snuggle on her chest while purring up a storm. If you sit down, Betty will come running and jump on your lap. Prepare for this cuddly girl to jump on top of you for some lovins even when you`re lying down! Betty has good manners and does not practice acrobatics on top of sleeping humans. She is friendly with people and cats, and would love to share her home with another cat.

If you`d like to take this kitty home, please fill out an adoption application at this link - https://animalalliesrescue.org/cat-application. The adoption fee is $150 and covers all expenses needed to prepare kitties like this one for their forever homes. By the time you meet them, they`ve already been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. They`ve been checked by a veterinarian and are up to date on age-appropriate immunizations against rabies and FVRCP (feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus & panleukopenia). Some of our cats have even undergone extensive medical care to ensure they`re ready for a happy, healthy life with you!

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Animal Allies Rescue Foundation (AARF). At the heart of our work is ensuring that each AARFie is matched with a family that is going to be their forever family. The application process is the first step in helping us understand you, your home, and factors that may help us determine if this pet is a great match for you — or, help you find a fit that will be. Please complete all the information in our species specific adoption applications; missing information may delay the adoption screening process.

Please note:

AARF only adopts pets to people in the Baltimore/DC metro region. In certain circumstances, we will consider homes in closer areas Pennsylvania, Delaware and Northern Virginia. This is due to the required home visit and long term ability to support the adoption. If you live outside of an hour radius of Baltimore, it is unlikely that your application will be approved.

Completion of the application form does not guarantee AARF will place one of our pets in your care. Many of our animals receive multiple applications, and we evaluate each applicant on fit for the specific animal (not first come first serve).

Completion of the application authorizes AARF to verify any information contained herein, including verification of medical records of any present or prior pets treated by the veterinarians listed.

AARF utilizes Truthfinder, a leading provider of public data about people and their connections to others, to verify certain information provided on foster and adoption applications. Truthfinder does not provide consumer reports and is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Completion of the adoption application is an indication that the information contained within this application is accurate and not misleading in any way.

All adoptions are at the sole discretion of AARF.

We also remind you that animals are not a short-term commitment, and as such, please give careful consideration to adopting an animal. Make sure your lifestyle allows the time, patience and expenses this animal will need over the years.
