Meet Iris, a Russian Blue lookalike kitten. She is not a purebred Russian Blue. She's a solid gray kitten who is short haired. If a lifetime home for Iris is found in the Pittsburgh area, Iris will fly up from Florida (in the passenger cabin) for the meet and greet. Florida currently has a cat overpopulation crisis so severe that several rescue groups fly and drive cats and kittens from Florida to the New England area. We do so to Pittsburgh where we have a connection. We do this with just a few cats. Every transport helps. Every home helps. Our goal is to save cats. We have only so much space and other resources. Iris's adoption fee helps to cover some of her transport, vet and daily living expenses. About Iris. She's been fostered in loving foster homes.

Meet Wanda IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN WANDA, PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE TO READ ABOUT THE PROCESS AND FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION. www.furkidrescue.org Wanda was a young teenage kitten when we trapped her in a feral colony in Bethel Park. We had a cat experienced foster home willing to take her in as a foster and get her used to domestic life. It took months, but now she loves the indoors, and loves human affection and attention. She follows her foster mom, Emilie, around the house, “yelling” at her, and demanding pets and butt scratches. She also gets along well with the resident cats and dog, and you can often find her hanging out with the dog!

Its hard to believe but Pepper arrived at our rescue in 2019! She is the longest resident at Animal Advocates and all of the volunteers at the rescue would be overjoyed to see Pepper thriving in the loving home she deserves. Pepper had been taken care of, along with a number of other cats, by a local rescuer until the time a house fire caused her to evacuate. Most of the cats in the group were brought to the rescue where they were eventually adopted. Pepper presented as the most challenging of the group as she was extremely wary of people at first. However, with patience and lots of positive reinforcement, Pepper has come a long way! The way to Pepper's spicy heart is through treats and playtime. She will come out to play with wand toys and accepts treats and pets from her favorite volunteers. Pepper requires a home with experienced cat people who will show her love, consistency and accept her for the cat that she is. Our team is happy to discuss with approved applicants the possibility of a long-term foster placement for Pepper. In a long-term foster placement the goal is to connect special animals with individuals in the community who are interest in caring for a pet. The rescue will provide supply and vetting support as needed. In hopes of bringing awareness to the many deserving cats searching for homes, volunteers at Animal Advocates have sponsored Pepper and covered her adoption fees. All cats are up-to-date on age/weight appropriate vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. If not completed at the time of adoption, any remaining initial vetting will be covered by the rescue. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net

Is a 15 pound cat too big to sit in your lap? Scout certainly doesn’t think so! Scout is the kind of cat who makes his presence known immediately, usually by asking for pets, attention, and as much closeness as possible. Scout absolutely loves his people and wants to be involved in every part of their day, whether that means curling up beside you, rubbing against your legs for attention, or staring at you expectantly until you give him the pets he believes he deserves. He has a big personality, a lot of charm, and an endless supply of love to give. Scout shares a close bond with his best friend Harper, and the two are looking for a home together. While Harper is the calm and steady half of the pair, Scout brings a little extra spark and personality that makes them such a fun duo. He’s social, expressive, and full of charm, with a presence that keeps life entertaining and full of affection. Because Scout becomes so enthusiastic about attention, he can sometimes get overstimulated during petting and may nip or grab at the hand petting him. He’s looking for a patient, cat-savvy home with someone who understands feline body language and can recognize when he needs a short break to reset. With the right person, Scout’s quirks are easy to manage and are simply part of what makes him unique. Scout has so much love to give and will thrive in a home that appreciates his affectionate, spirited personality while respecting his boundaries. Together, Scout and Harper make a deeply bonded pair full of companionship, comfort, and character. 
 Scout would likely do well in a home with older or cat savvy kids. We haven’t had a chance to observe him around dogs, but a chill, older dog companion would probably be ok too. Scout is approximately three years old. He is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped. Apply to adopt!
