My story

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

Meet Baloo! This little guy just needs the bare necessities, like love, cuddles, treats, and play.

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

Baloo loves his littermates, adventure, play, and snacks. Always happy to receive love, this little guy is the perfect cuddle partner, but is also very playful. Initially shy for the first day, he settled into his foster home very well, and loves getting attention. This little guy is very food motivated (but who isn’t).

Baloo and his sibling, She-Wolf, were rescued from a life on the streets in Houston by a Good Samaritan. They are loving the inside life but are searching for their forever homes!!

Baloo is about 4 months old, neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. He does a great job of keeping his litter box tidy. All he needs now is his forever home!

Shee-Wolf, and Baloo love being around other cats, and playing with friends. They would probably thrive best in a house with his littermate, or a friendly resident cat. He has met his foster's large, cat friendly dog, and was not intimidated by him at all. We feel with proper introductions to a well-behaved dog, he would be happy with a new pup sibling. He has also interacted with a four year old, and did great!

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

Baloo 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.

To learn more about our TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) efforts, please follows us on Instagram @roses_rescues_htx.

(All adoption fees also include transportation costs, spay/neuter of the animal, vaccinations, and microchipping.)

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!
