Story
Chester is a quiet, sensitive boy who's been learning that the world — and the people in it — aren’t so scary after all. He’s what we lovingly call a “cat’s cat” — he finds comfort and confidence in the company of other feline friends, and would thrive in a calm home with at least one other friendly cat. Chester is very shy at first and takes time to build trust with humans. But with gentle patience, a quiet environment, and a soft approach, he’ll start to come out of his shell — and when he does, you’ll see a truly special cat emerge. He’s grown to enjoy affection, even seeking it out once he feels safe. Curling up beside you, soaking in gentle pets, and especially belly rubs are some of his favorite ways to show his trust. Chester will need a slow introduction to his new home, with gradual changes and time to adjust at his own pace. Loud noises and fast movements can still startle him, so a calm, understanding adopter is a must. If you believe in second chances and the beauty of watching a shy cat blossom, Chester will reward you with quiet companionship, tender moments, and a bond built on trust. For Pet's Sake Rescue is a Mississippi based rescue. All animals are currently in MS. Mississippi is overpopulated with too many animals, not enough adopters, and many high kill shelters. For Pet's Sake Rescue saves each animal from a different background.  ***Breed input is required for each platform but is not guaranteed to be accurate. We do not DNA test. We rescue animals from different situations.We discuss breed assignments with our vets to label them as accurately as possible.*** For Pet's Sake Rescue transports animals to other states for better adoption potential. Our goal is to keep animals alive and out of kennels into their forever homes as quickly as possible. Each animal is quarantined and vetted during their time in our care. Each adopted pet is spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and has current flea treatment unless otherwise noted.  You can visit our website at www.forpetssakerescue.org for our full adoption process and adoption application. Once we review your application and check your vet reference, we will contact you to proceed. If both parties agree to the adoption, we will send you an Adoption Contract with an invoice. Once the invoice is paid, your pet is "on hold" for you to pick up or we can transport the pet to a designated location closer to you via transport. Transports are arranged for specific dates. We will discuss these dates and locations with you during the initial phone call.  We are currently unable to adopt pets to MA and RI residents. Any of our adoptable animals can be transported unless otherwise noted in their profile. View all of our adopted animals at www.forpetssakerescue.com   ##1871096##

Story
Castor is a sweet and playful boy who loves being around people and other cats. He’s always ready for a game, enjoys gentle play biting, and soaks up every bit of affection he can get. This loving kitty will happily keep you entertained with his energy. When Castor was a tiny kitten, he battled an illness that left him with watery eyes. While his eyes may always look a little teary, it doesn’t slow him down one bit, and most importantly, it isn’t contagious. He’s a happy, healthy, affectionate cat who just happens to have a unique feature that makes him extra special. Castor is a true cat’s cat. He is a gentle soul who prefers friendships on his own terms. He enjoys pets but politely declines being picked up. He’ll pop by for a little visit when the mood strikes and then scamper off once his social battery is recharged. Castor thrives in our Community Room with 15+ feline friends and is wonderfully social with other cats. He would be the perfect companion for a resident kitty who’s looking for a calm, respectful BFF.

Vesper came to us with her siblings and while they’ve all found their forever homes, Vesper has been patiently waiting. She’s what we lovingly call a “cat’s cat.” While she’s comfortable with the occasional human touch, Vesper truly thrives in the company of other cats. Currently, she lives in our community room alongside 15–20 cats and gets along beautifully with every personality, proof of her easygoing and social nature with feline friends. Vesper would be happiest in a home with a friendly resident cat where she can relax, coexist, and form a true BFF bond.
