Story
SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THIS KITTEN IS LOUNGING LIKE A DIVORCED MILLIONAIRE IN PALM BEACH. Rhode Island, we need to discuss Honey. The blue eyes. The pink nose. The tiny toe beans. And the unmistakable expression of someone waiting for the cabana boy to bring her another cocktail. Meet Honey, a 3 month old kitten with creamy white fluff and absolutely unreasonable expectations. Her siblings are Cherry, Maple, and Colby Jack. Three names that sound like an expensive brunch menu, although we're still trying to understand why someone brought cheese. Honey has appointed herself the sophisticated member of the family. She's requested Egyptian cotton sheets, a heated sunroom, and breakfast served promptly at 8. When informed that she's currently living at an animal rescue, she asked to speak with the concierge. Unfortunately, the concierge is a volunteer named Nancy, and Nancy has approximately 400 other things to do. Honey is considering a one star review. Behind this ridiculous little Palm Beach socialite is a gorgeous, sweet faced kitten looking for someone to love her, play with her, and give her the wonderful life she deserves. A sunny windowsill would be appreciated. Egyptian cotton is negotiable.

They do not all need to come in at the same time. - Any current dogs in the home must complete an onsite meet and greet with the dog you are hoping to adopt. - Current pets in the home must be up to date on veterinary care and spayed or neutered. Once veterinary records have been reviewed, our team will schedule an onsite meet and greet with the dog you are hoping to adopt and any current dog or dogs in your home.

Our team will contact you to schedule a meet and greet if your application is moving forward. Helpful Reminders There is no set timeline for how long it takes to process an application. Our team does their best to review applications as quickly as possible. We kindly ask that you do not send duplicate emails asking for updates, as this can slow down the process.We do not do same day adoptions. Submitting an application does not mean you are approved to adopt a specific animal. We are looking for the best match for each animal based on their needs, personality, age, energy level, medical history, and the home environment. Adoption Fees Adoption fees help us continue to provide lifesaving care to animals in need. EGAPL Heart of RI is a nonprofit animal rescue and does not receive state or federal funding. The cost of veterinary care, food, supplies, staffing, transport, medications, and daily shelter operations has increased significantly.While adoption fees do not cover the full cost of caring for each animal, they help offset a portion of the medical care, housing, and support each pet receives before going home. Every adoption also helps make room for the next animal who needs safety, care, and a fresh start. DOGS Puppies under 1 year: $675 Adult dogs 1 year and older: $575 Dog adoptions include, as age appropriate: Spay or neuter surgery Rabies vaccine Distemper/parvo vaccines given while in our care, based on the dogs age and vaccine schedule Leptospirosis vaccine started while in our care, when age-appropriate Bordetella vaccineInitial deworming Heartworm testing, when age appropriate Microchip Flea and tick prevention or treatment while in our care Basic medical evaluation and care while at EGAPL Adoption counseling and take home guidance Please bring a leash and collar with you at the time of adoption, or ask our team what size is best for your new dog. CATS Kittens under 1 year: $425 Adult cats 1 year and older: $325 Cat and kitten adoptions include, as age appropriate: Spay or neuter surgery Rabies vaccine FVRCP/distemper vaccines given while in our care, based on the cat or kittens age and vaccine scheduleInitial deworming FeLV/FIV testing, when age appropriate Microchip Flea treatment or prevention while in our care Basic medical evaluation and care while at EGAPL Adoption counseling and take home guidance Please bring a secure cat carrier with you at the time of adoption. A Note About Puppy and Kitten Vaccines Puppies and kittens require a series of vaccines as they grow. We provide as many age appropriate distemper vaccines as possible while they are in our care, but young animals may still need additional boosters after adoption.Your adoption counselor will review your pets vaccine record with you so you know exactly what has been done and what may still be needed with your veterinarian. A Note About Leptospirosis Vaccines for Dogs We start dogs and puppies on the leptospirosis vaccine when age appropriate. Because some dogs are adopted before the booster is due, the full lepto series may not be completed before adoption. Your adoption counselor will review your dog's vaccine record with you and let you know whether a booster is still needed with your veterinarian. After Adoption Veterinary Care We recommend setting up an appointment with your veterinarian shortly after adoption. This helps your new pet establish care, allows your veterinarian to review their medical and vaccine history, and ensures they stay on track for any boosters or follow up care they may need. Flea and tick prevention, as well as heart worm prevention for dogs, are typically prescription products. Your veterinarian can help choose the safest and most appropriate preventatives for your pet based on their age, weight, medical history, and lifestyle. Why Adoption Fees Matter Every animal who comes through our doors receives individualized care. Some arrive healthy and simply need vaccines, spay/neuter surgery, and a safe place to land. Others need emergency care, diagnostics, treatment for parasites or infections, dental care, behavior support, special food, foster care, or weeks to months of daily shelter care before they are ready for adoption.Your adoption fee helps support that full circle of care. It helps the pet you are bringing home, and it helps the next animal who needs us. Thank you for choosing adoption and for supporting the lifesaving work of EGAPL Heart of RI.

Story
Meet Cherry. She is 3 months old and she appears to have been assembled entirely from whipped cream and eyelashes. We have reviewed her photograph extensively.we can’t prove it, but something isn’t right. Her eyes are too blue. Her face is too perfect. Her ears are picking up radio transmissions from Connecticut. And despite being the size of a decorative throw pillow, she has the confidence of a woman who owns three vacation properties. She disagrees. Apparently, she's an heiress. Cherry has requested imported blankets, a personal photographer, and a beachfront estate. We explained that she's living at an animal shelter. SHE HAS REQUESTED TO SPEAK TO CORPORATE. Beneath all this completely unnecessary luxury lifestyle drama is one gorgeous little girl waiting for her forever family.
