My story

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

Simon came to us as a stray through TNR from a very bad place that he could not go back to. He was trapped right before the large snow event and we don't think he would have survived if he had been out in that weather. He was very sick and had to have most of his teeth pulled.
 
The ladies at the vet office where he was seen soon realized Simon was very much domesticated and craved human love, so they decided to keep him at the office to find him a home. 

Simon does very well with other cats and dogs and loves kids. 

Simon is so grateful to be rescued and only requests two things- lots of food and lots of love. 

Simon is about 4-5 years old. He has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV, microchipped, and treated preventatively for fleas/ticks. 

If you would like to give this wonderful boy, who loves everyone, a home, please email us at bandocats@gmail.com

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require that adopters fill out an application, which can be downloaded from our web site, www.bandocats.org under "How You Can Help" and "Adopt." Once it is filled out, you can email it back to us at bandocats@columbus.rr.com or fax it to 614-873-0972. Our adoption fee is $75. If you adopt two cats or kittens, we only charge one adoption fee. We do not have a shelter, so once you are approved, we will make arrangements to allow you to meet the cat you are interested in through their foster. All cats are in foster homes.

Go meet their pets

We have adoption events at the PetSmart on Sawmill Road in Columbus the fourth Saturday of every month from 12-2. We also have two cages at this PetSmart and you can stop in and meet our cats and fill out an application there.

More about this rescue

Black and Orange Cat Foundation consists of a small group of volunteers working on trap-neuter-return (TNR) efforts for feral cats and spay/neuter services for stray cats in the Plain City area. Plain City is a rural farming community that is situated in two counties--Madison and Union counties. Because we are a farming area, there are a huge number of "barn cats" that need to be fixed. We are the only group in this area working on an ongoing basis to spay and neuter feral and stray cats.

Never heard of TNR? Trap-neuter-return involves humanely trapping feral or "wild" cats in traps baited with tuna or other yummy kitty foods. The cats, once trapped, are then transported to the vet to be spayed or neutered. We desperately want to cut down on the cat over population problem that is overwhelming so many shelters and TNR is helping us do just that.

But while the cats we trap are feral, there are often kittens or tame cats in these colonies that can be placed in homes. The kitties on these pages have all come from sad situations. With a lot of love, medical help, and plenty of good food, these guys have all become lovebugs looking for forever homes. Won't you please consider one of them so they will never be lonely or hungry again?
