My story

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

Meet Augustus (Gus for short)!

Augustus is a friendly, yet cautious guy. He lives for gentle head pets and chin scritches and is quick to hop up on a strangers lap and start purring aggressively once they are seated. If Gus doesn’t want to sit on your lap, he’s happy to curl up next to you and take a nap.

Augustus likes to have cozy, confined spaces where he can sit, observe and relax while feeling protected. He would do best starting out in one room to adjust while he gets used to his new environment (preferably one that you spend a lot of time in - he loves to co-work with people!)

Augustus does like to explore, especially on bookshelves, but is respectful of your boundaries. He doesn’t try to hop up on tall surfaces. He loves to look out the window and bird watch - it will provide him with hours of entertainment.

His calm, reserved, and social demeanor indicates that he would be good for calmer households with cat savvy children. Gus has not been around other cats or dogs while in foster, but may do ok with calm dogs and proper introductions. He is a great companion and only wants to give his forever family all of his love.

Augustus is about 8.5 years old. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, FIV/FELV tested negative, dewormed, and flea treated. He’s ready for his forever home! Apply for him today.

Their adoption process

1.
Submit Application

Typically we talk a little with potential adopters to find a cat who is a good fit before sharing the application.

2.
Approve Application

We check over the application including checking vet references and doing landlord checks.

3.
Interview

We spend more time chatting with the adopters to specifically go over any questions from the application and details about the specific cat.

4.
Meet the Pet

Potential adopters have a meet and greet with the cat or kitten in the foster home.

5.
Sign Adoption Contract

At the meet and greet, if all goes well, the adoption contract can be signed, the fee can be paid, and the pet can go home!

Additional adoption info

We try to do our best to make sure we find good fitting, responsible homes, without wasting a lot of our time. Our app has a lot of screening questions which help eliminate potential adopters who might not be serious (they usually just don't return the app), or not a good fit, which is why the in depth interview happens once the app is returned.

More about this rescue

We are a small but dedicated 501c3 nonprofit cat rescue specializing in making one person's garbage kitten another person's forever cat.

Our mission is to reduce feline suffering and overpopulation using a combination of TNR and adoptions. We foster and socialize whenever we have the resources to do so, including behavioral cats and kittens who might otherwise just be candidates for TNR.
