My story

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

Tim is a lovable seven-year-old boy who was rescued and brought to safety at a shelter. Based on just how sweet, affectionate, and people-oriented he is, it’s likely this charming guy once had a home and was sadly abandoned. If so, he clearly appreciates being rescued — because all he wants now is to love and be loved.

Tim is a chill, cuddly lap cat with a big personality. He’s hilarious, a total clown, and absolutely an attention seeker in the best way possible. If he wants love, he will let you know! He’s chatty, playful, and very social — always ready to engage with his people.

This sweet boy loves catnip, enjoys a good wet food dinner, and never says no to pets. He adores being petted and will happily knead and make biscuits on you while settling into your lap. Tim is the kind of cat who wants to be with his person or family at all times — he will lovingly shadow you from room to room just to stay close.

Tim would prefer to be your one and only feline. He wants to dedicate himself fully to you and prove that he’s all the cat you’ll ever need! He should do well with children ages 7+ who understand how to interact gently and respectfully.

He’s very outgoing, enjoys a big scratching post to stretch out on, and absolutely needs a sunny window to lounge in — soaking up the warmth while keeping an eye on the world. ☀️

Tim is truly a cuddly, social lap cat with a huge heart and a fun-loving spirit. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will entertain you, adore you, and keep your lap warm, Tim is ready to be your one-and-only best friend.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
