Story
TIGGER the adorable orange kitten and his Best Beloved JEWEL the PantherGirl are just kittens themselves, 6-7 or so months old and they've been together their whole lives! This adorable pair of kitties are BONDED and MUST go together to a quiet home of adults who LOVE kitties and are an experienced feline family. Orange male Tigger is already neutered, up to date on his vaccinations and dewormed. Jewel somehow got out as a kitten during her very first estrus, became pregnant, gave birth to kittens who have now been weaned and are in the process of being placed. During that ENTIRE TIME, Tigger has been loyally by her side, helping with the babies (even though they are really just teenage babies themselves!) and loving Jewel and the kittens. Its a REAL LIFE Romeo and Juliet LOVE story!!!! Jewel is far more socialized, and Tigger would LOVE to find a human with whom he can bond again too, as he did with their first humans. Is that YOUR family? If YOU have enough LOVE to share with this young kitten pair, AND you are HIGHLY EXPERIENCED with kitties (or willing to learn how to help socialize them even more with humans!) RSVP with your PHONE NUMBER and SCHEDULE a SPECIFIC TIME WINDOW to chat with our Volunteer Adoption Counselors! Be the right PURRRRever Family!

Story
This sweet girl is "Cleo", lovingly named by her rescuer who helps the cats/kittens at the Cuale River. Just a baby herself, Cleo was abandoned, pregnant and extremely malnourished. She lost her babies but was taken into a loving foster home, where it was clear that she had belonged to a family or other home at some point. Her health and nutrition was improved and now she's ready for her furever home. She's already spayed, good with dogs and other cats.

Story
All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Amaretto is a 2 year old young lady that one of our volunteers rescued from a precarious life. She was living with her littermates on the street in a high danger zone. We couldn't leave them there, so our volunteer took all of them in to give them a chance at life. Amaretto is a shy girl, it will take her a while to warm up to her humans, but once she does, you have a friend for life. We know she appreciates having been rescued and wants to trust people so badly but it just takes her a little time. She could easily join a home with another cat or cat savvy dog. She is particularly fond of one of her siblings. So if you are interested in adopting a pair, please look at Kahlua's bio as well. They do not need to be adopted together, but if interested in two kitties, they would be a great duo. Because of her initial shyness, we would be open to a foster-to-adopt program with her. If you think she might be the one for you but want to do a trial period to make sure, we can arrange that. She loves her cat tree and soft beds in her foster home. And she is very treat motivated, so that would be a fast track to bonding with her. She just needs a forever person or family to give her a chance. We know her purrfect person will see her post and know she is the one! She has been spayed, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treatment applied and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $150.May 14, 2024, 12:44 pm
