My story

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

 

Donate Heart


Hello friends! My name is Claire! I was born in August of 2025, and I have had such a big journey in my short life. I was found as a stray with my mom, Cindy, in Texas, where we were rescued and survived a major illness. In recovering from that illness, I developed moderate/severe cerebellar hypoplasia. To find the perfect home, my mom and I were transferred to Animal Rescue of the Rockies here in Colorado. I am special needs: I have a CH, a neurological issue that causes me to be a bit different. I struggle to walk, but I get around by leaning on things and falling from side to side. However, this issue is not degenerative, and it does not affect how much I love cuddles and purring! I am very sweet, with a side of opinionated sass. I love toys, attention, and use the litter box like any other normal kitten. I do need a low-sided litter box, and although I am great about using the litter box, sometimes I accidentally poo outside of it because I fall out of the box while I am using it. I need a space where I do not have access to stairs, as I am not able to keep myself safe around them. I love to play with people and my mom, but I am not a huge fan of dogs or other cats without a long introduction. I would prefer to go home with my mom as my companion, so please read up about her as well (Cindy). Please reach out to the people at Animal Rescue of the Rockies with any questions or to set up a zoom or in person meet and greet with me! I am so excited to find my forever home. I am spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes that every pet should find a wonderful, caring home. To ensure each pet finds the best possible home, we ask that you fill out an adoption application form so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application we receive and will contact you as quickly as possible. A home visit will be scheduled before any pet is adopted to a new home. Once a home visit has taken place and the adoption application has been approved, we will ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement form. Our adoption fees help cover the cost of spay/neuter, veterinary exams, vaccinations, microchipping, and foster care. Highly requested breeds help cover the vet costs incurred by some of our other cats, enabling us to save more lives!

  • $300 for purebred/highly requested kittens, 6 months or younger, such as Siamese mixes, Maine Coon mixes.  These 'guardian kittens' help support our rescue work by covering vet costs for other kittens.
  • $200 for purebred/highly requested cats older than 6 months such as Siamese mixes, Maine Coone mixes.  These 'guardian cats' help support our rescue work by covering vet costs for other kittens.
  • $200 for kittens (6 months & under)   
  • $125 for cats (older than 6 months)   
  • $75 for senior cats (8 years or older)

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application  here . We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process!

Please email cats@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can not accept calls at this time.



PLEASE NOTE:  The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter.  Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets.  Here is some interesting info on breed identification:  https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/

Our adoption process is:

1. Fill out our Adoption Application online.  We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet.

2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting.  Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member!
