Almost Home believes that every animal deserves a loving home regardless of appearance, age, or physical limitation. We have come together to give animals in need the safe and happy life they all deserve. Almost Home Animal Rescue believes that no animal is expendable.
Adopting a friend:
The animals, lucky enough to find refuge with Almost Home, are all in loving foster homes. If you are interested in the possibility of giving one of the animals a new lease on life, please contact us. The contact information is listed at the end of each biography.
What you need to do to adopt:
If you would like to adopt a pet in need from Almost Home, basically, an application must be filled out. We will check two personal references and a vet reference. If you are approved for adoption, there is a trial period of about one week to make sure this is the animal for you and you are the person for the animal. Along with the trial period, a contract must be signed that basically states that if ever you cannot keep the animal that you must return the animal to Almost Home. Last but not least, a home check will be done.
Meet & Greets:
An approved application is required. This does not mean that you have to adopt but that you are approved to do so if everything works out. Since we are foster based, this limits the amount of people coming to our homes.
Hi… I’m Hopper.
I’m a handsome little tabby boy, and when I was very tiny, the world felt huge — and kind of scary. It was just me and my sister Eleven out there, wandering and wondering how we were going to be okay. I stayed close to her. She stayed close to me. That’s how we made it. Finally, we were found at an construction site.
Now I’m safe, warm, and learning that life can be really good.
I’m a sweet boy — the kind who loves soft voices, gentle hands, and being told I’m a good kitten. I’m very kissable (or so I’ve been told), and I will absolutely never turn down cuddles. If you sit down for even a second, there’s a good chance I’ll be right there, ready to snuggle and purr.
I like to play, too. Chasing toys, exploring new places, and getting into a little mischief with Eleven is one of my favorite things. But when I’m tired, I want comfort — and I always find it curled up next to my sister. We sleep together in our foster mommy’s closet, tucked away where it feels safe and quiet, just like when we only had each other.
I do well with other animals, but big dogs make me a bit nervous. I’d rather live somewhere calm, where Eleven and I can relax and be ourselves. We are about ten to twelve weeks old and both about a big whopping three pounds!
We’re bonded — not just because we’re siblings, but because we survived together. I can’t imagine life without her.
I don’t know how we ended up out there alone, but I do know this: it led us here, and now it feels like we’re getting closer to our happy ending.
If you have room in your heart and your home for two kittens who love deeply and cuddle sweetly…
Please don’t forget my sister.
Love,
Hopper & Eleven
*MUST be adopted together*

If you would like to meet your new best friends, contact the Adoption Coordinator at info@almosthometn.org or 865-236-0830. To fill out an application, go to www.almosthometn.org. If you cannot get it to work, let us know and we will email it to you in a different format.
Unless otherwise noted, all Almost Home cats are healthy, spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and flea & tick preventative.
****When puppies and kittens are adopted before being fixed, they MUST be adopted in East Tennessee.
ADOPTION FEE:
The adoption fee for a cat is $85.
The adoption fee for a kitten is $100. The adoption fee does include the kittens being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.
The adoption fee for a dog is $200.
The adoption fee for a puppy is $250. The adoption fee does include the puppies being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.
Mature pet adoption fees are sometimes reduced.
The adoption fee for pure bred dogs and cats will vary due to health and age of pet. This helps support our ill animals and our mutts that get left in the system longer.
We do reserve the right to change the fees higher or lower due to the circumstance of the animal but what was stated above are the usual adoption fees. Microchipped pets will have a higher adoption fee. Our adoption fees do not cover the cost of the vetting and care the animal has received with us and if it ever does, the money just goes back it to helping other animals in need.
