My story

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

Meet Mirando — A Gentle Soul with a Heart Full of Potential



Mirando is a sweet, sensitive boy who is deeply bonded to his brother, Gordo. Together, they’re lovingly known as “the Os,” and they must be adopted as a pair. Mirando is still learning that humans can be trusted, and while that journey takes time, it is incredibly rewarding. He has already made meaningful progress in foster care—transforming from a kitty who was stressed by human touch into one who now enjoys regular petting sessions (especially when he’s cozied up behind the scratching post).



Because Mirando is sensitive to fast movements and loud noises, he will do best in a quiet, calm home with patient humans who understand that his trust must be built slowly. He’s not a cat for a bustling household, but he's perfect for someone who values gentle moments, soft voices, and the magic of watching a shy cat come out of his shell. He still hisses sometimes (think of it as his awkward way of saying hello) but now he also plays, accepts treats gently from your hand, and shows off his progress with the most satisfying purrs.



When humans aren’t around, Mirando truly comes alive with his brother. The two participate in nightly “cat-o-lympics,” complete with running, wrestling, and impressive tumbling routines. Mirando often watches closely as Gordo is pet and cuddled, clearly curious and longing for that same connection. You can tell he wants to be loved—and with continued patience and consistency, there’s no doubt he will fully return that love in time.



Mirando may not rush into affection, but every step forward feels like a small victory. If you’re someone who believes the best relationships are earned, who finds joy in quiet progress and deep bonds, Mirando (and Gordo) will reward you with trust, companionship, and a love that feels truly special.

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in Forever Fortunate Felines.  We are very happy to have the opportunity to match you with your purr-fect cat-panion!

Once you complete the online application using the below link, you will be able to discuss and ask questions directly to the foster parent.  We believe this is a big advantage to you as our organization is completely foster based, we really understand our cats personalities at a deep level.  This helps to ensure a great match with you and your family.

In order to get the process going, would you kindly fill out our detailed online application located here: 
http://www.foreverfortunatefelines.org/adopt

Completing our online application does not commit you to adopt from our rescue.  Rather it helps us to understand your requirements and match you with the best possible cat or kitten.

Once you complete the application and it is approved, we can set up a meet and greet and if all works out, you may bring the kittens or cats home the same day.  Please make sure to bring an adequately sized pet carrier with you to your meet and greet.  We recommend a pet carrier which opens from the top as this is the easiest way to place a cat inside a carrier.  If you do decide to adopt, we do expect you to take home your cat the same day as there are so many cats and kittens which need to be rescued from high kill shelters, we almost always rescue a new cat or kitten the very next day.  If it is not possible for you to take your cat or kitten home the same day, we do charge a boarding fee of $10 per day for supplies and to encourage you to take your newly adopted cat home.  We will board for a maximum of 3 days if needed to allow you time to get needed supplies.

Our adoption fees are listed at the link below. This fee includes full vetting, flea treatment, de-worming, spay surgery, FeLV and FIV test, microchip insertion, and vaccinations up to date for the kittens or cats age.  We are able to PayPal or most major credit cards for the adoption fee.

We have streamlined our adoption process to make it easy!  Everything from the application, to payment, to the contract is online.  Additionally, all of the cats records will be placed in your free Petlovers account at petstablished.com to keep organized.

With Warm Regards,
