My story

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

This little kitten is Pickle. She and her two siblings were found living under a house in the Monroeville area by a kind colony caretaker.

Pickle started off very scared, shut down, and untrusting of people. She is still a little nervous about human interaction, however, she gets more brave every day with her foster mom. She hasn’t been brave enough to solicit attention on her own, but she can be bribed with yummy treats. Pickle is learning to enjoy human attention with the help of snacks & playtime (especially with wand toys!). Pickle loves to play, eat all the snacks, bird watch, lounge, and sunbathe. She seems to enjoy her independence.

Pickle will need to go to a home with adopters that have experience and patience for shy/skittish kitties. She’s nervous around small children so she may do best with older children or adults who understand to go at her pace. She’s best introduced with some food bribes or wand toys, she can be petted while she eats. Pickle loves other cats, and she must go home either with one of her siblings or to a home with another active, playful cat companion. She usually mimics the behavior of other cats so it is preferred her cat companion be more confident to help show her the ropes around her new home. She’s met the same family dog a couple of times but is not the biggest fan. She would likely prefer a home without dogs.

Pickle is almost four months old. She is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, flea treated, dewormed, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV. Please give Pickle (and a friend?) a chance at a new life - apply today!

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.
