My story

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

Melon is as tasty as a juicy fruit!!!

Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/

Melon is a little guy who loves his best kitten and human friends. He is a little timid in new situations at first, but time helps him feel safe. Melon was trapped in a feral colony and saved from a tough life on the streets. Melon love his foster family, but he is ready to find his best forever family!! This kitten is living their best indoor kitten life!!

Melon is on the hunt for his new forever family. Could it be you?

Melon is spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. They do a great job of keeping their litterbox tidy. All they need now is a forever home!

Melon and his buddies have never met a dog, but with slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think they could learn to love a new dog friend. They are so excited they get to live the inside cat life!!

Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Information on why adopting two kittens is better for their short- and long-term health can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens

Melon is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes.

ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES:

When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts!

More about this rescue

ROSES (Reducing Overpopulation: Spay/Neuter Education & Support) exists to conduct outreach, community education, fundraising, and service navigation to encourage spay/neuter for dogs and cats in overpopulated communities.

"ROSES Rescues" is an offshoot of this mission that helps the strays, rescue transfers, and owner surrenders that our volunteers and partners encounter and need help matching with forever homes.

We are located in Houston, Texas and are a FULLY foster-based rescue with no physical shelter location. We proudly transport our kitties to wonderful adopters in the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, Colorado, and locations along those routes, so please feel free to check out our pets and see if we have a transport spot close to you!
