My story

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

Love Sour Patch Kids? Meet the ultimate “first they’re sour, then they’re sweet” kitty!

Stewie was found on a rainy night, soaked but friendly enough that his rescuer thought he must belong to someone. But nope - no chip, not fixed, no collar. He was originally sent to a local shelter to be adopted, but that environment was too stressful for him, so he’s been decompressing in a loving foster home and showing off his *very big* personality.

Now, about that personality… those who know Stewie and have been accepted into his inner circle say he’s the sweetest boy ever... but he definitely has main character energy (and some major trust issues at first). It takes Stewie some time to warm up to new people - he can get very overstimulated easily at first and will need an adopter who understands cat body language and how to give him space when he needs it. He would do best in a calm, low-chaos home with adults only.

Once Stewie has accepted you, he’s all in: he runs to you when you walk in the door, he loves gentle play, bird watching, and has nonstop curiosity - cupboards, shelves, countertops, watching the toilet flush, you name it. He’s smart, affectionate, and a total goofball. Because of his suspicious-at-first nature, you can also think of him as your personal security guard (who secretly just wants cuddles).

Stewie does well with and enjoys other cats- we believe having a feline friend for him would help his confidence and that another young cat would be a good match for his energetic, playful energy. He could also go home as a solo kitty.

Stewie is estimated to be about a year old. He is neutered, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV. If you’re patient, cat-savvy, and willing to help a conflicted cat through the initial adjustment period, consider Stewie! He’ll “help” with chores, follow you around, and bop around the house just doing his silly Stewie thing.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Typically we talk a little with potential adopters to find a cat who is a good fit before sharing the application.

2.

Approve Application

We check over the application including checking vet references and doing landlord checks.

3.

Interview

We spend more time chatting with the adopters to specifically go over any questions from the application and details about the specific cat.

4.

Meet the Pet

Potential adopters have a meet and greet with the cat or kitten in the foster home.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

At the meet and greet, if all goes well, the adoption contract can be signed, the fee can be paid, and the pet can go home!

6.

Pay Fee

7.

Take the Pet Home

Additional adoption info

We try to do our best to make sure we find good fitting, responsible homes, without wasting a lot of our time. Our app has a lot of screening questions which help eliminate potential adopters who might not be serious (they usually just don't return the app), or not a good fit, which is why the in depth interview happens once the app is returned.

More about this rescue

We are a small but dedicated 501c3 nonprofit cat rescue specializing in making one person's garbage kitten another person's forever cat.

Our mission is to reduce feline suffering and overpopulation using a combination of TNR and adoptions. We foster and socialize whenever we have the resources to do so, including behavioral cats and kittens who might otherwise just be candidates for TNR.
