Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BUDDY - ID#A008258
BUDDY is a neutered male, Black and White Domestic Shorthair. The shelter thinks Buddy was about 3 years when he arrived on May 18, 2007. Buddy is a sweet shy cat, who is a little frightened at the shelter - and the main thing that comforts him - is a warm, loving human lap! He will crawl right up on your lap, without even waiting for an invitation - first laying on one side, and then rolling over and laying on the other - all the while purring and pushing his face up against your arm - trying as best he can to get as buried as possible into your lap! He looks as though he had kind of a tough time before he was picked up and brought to the shelter (his fur is a little scruffy!) - but he is full of love and trust for humans. Come visit this little guy - sit with him - and experience for yourself his affectionate, warm spirit - he's waiting for you!
Starting the adoption process you need to be 18 years or older, complete an application http://www.petprojectfoundation.org/catadoption.pdf, be interviewed and it is strongly recommended all members of your household have interacted with the cat to make the best match for everyone, the cat you wish to adopt be an indoor cat, and be able to verify with your landlord that you may have a pet if you are renting. Understand we reserve the right to deny the adoption of any pet for any reason. Also any additional requirements for the specific pet you are interested in adopting needs to be met. We adopt to the best home, not necessarily the first application turned in.
Applications are only accepted by FAX (949-366-4765), mail or in person. Sorry, no applications through the Internet.
Cat adoptions are $85 each and include a microchip, spay or neuter, current shots, flea treatment (if required), "New Owner" folder, and one free basic health examination within 5 days of adoption from a veterinarian on our list.
Please call 949-492-1617 to check if your desired pet is still available or the status of your application. We are CLOSED Tuesdays. Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM. Monday, Thursday, Friday, & Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM. Sunday: Noon - 3:00 PM. We are very proud of our shelter, it is clean, welcoming, freeway close, and voted "Best Place to Adopt" by the Orange Coast Magazine!
