My story

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

Meet Sparrow — From Shy Beginnings to a Happy-Go-Lucky Boy

Sparrow is a completely new cat compared to the frightened kitten who first came to us. He and his “Bird” litter were born to an unsocialized stray mama. Some of the kittens survived, some didn’t, none of them were in great health when they arrived. We worked long and hard—first to get Sparrow strong and healthy, and then to help him learn that people can be gentle and kind.

In the beginning, Sparrow spent most of his time tucked in the back of his kennel, avoiding human touch. He had needed so much medication as a young kitten that he came to associate people with unpleasant experiences. But once he was healthy and fully vetted, everything changed. We let him out of his kennel to interact with other cats and volunteers, and Sparrow began to discover that life could be fun.

Today, Sparrow is a happy-go-lucky fellow. He’s still not wild about being held, so we wouldn’t call him a cuddler just yet—but he does love being petted. He enjoys playing, running, exploring, and interacting with other cats. And in a real home with consistent love, there’s no telling just how much he’ll continue to blossom.

He also has the most amazing fluffy tail—he proudly shows it off like a little peacock!

Sparrow is neutered, vaccinated, combo tested, and microchipped.
Adoption fee: $200

Come meet this handsome boy—you just might fall head over paws in love with him.

Additional adoption info

Our kitties are ALWAYS spayed/neutered and vaccinated before we put them up for adoption.
The adoptee will need to fill out an application and be approved, then they will be contacted regarding setting up an appointment to meet our available cats and kittens. If we feel it necessary, we may request a home visit. We want to make sure the adoption is a good fit for both owner and pet.

More about this rescue

Floyd County has the 3rd largest intake of cats in the state, including all Atlanta-area shelters. Floyd Felines was created to stop the weekly euthanasia. We pull sick cats and young kittens out of Floyd County Animal Control, now known as Public Animal Welfare Services, and take them to our private shelter where they are able to get necessary attention. We also pull hundreds of healthy, adoptable cats and kittens to be transported to Northern rescue partners to have higher chances of adoption. This work opens kennels at animal control so that it is no longer required to euthanize for space.

We also have a working cat program, where we match up “feral” cats to approved, outdoor homes where they can control the mice and snake population. These cats are usually some of the first to be euthanized at shelters, so we are thrilled that we are able to provide hope for their futures.
