Story
Meet Prissy, a feral stray cat who found her way to the right place at the right time! When the cold snap hit, we managed to catch her and bring her inside. Gradually, we've been giving her attention, and she's warmed up to us enough to enjoy being petted. At approximately 9 months old, she's received all her vaccines and has been spayed.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website..Mr Kitty and Lil Momma are siblings that have spent their lives together since birth so they will need to stay together. Mr Kitty is a buff ginger and Lil Momma is deep orange. They lived with a foster family as kittens that had two other cats and a dog. That was in 2018 so it's been some time since they have been tested to see how they do around other cats but would recommend no dogs. Clearly they adore each other :)  Mr Kitty is extremely lovable. The worst thing he does is walk away after getting lots of pets. He loves to be petted and get belly rubs. Lil Momma is a sweetheart when she warms up but she definitely would need time to acclimate to a new home. She isn’t a lap cat but does enjoy getting brushed and it works out well since her brother enjoys all the attention anyway! Mr. Kitty is usually in the forefront and his sister will follow suit over time.   Neither have ever bitten or scratched anyone but they would need time to adjust to the change of a new environment.  The last several years, they have enjoyed life at the office visiting with clients who come in and getting attention from the workers.  They will flourish in a quiet setting with older children or no children. They have always been inside cats since they were rescued so would need an indoor only home Both kitties are up to date on all vetting and have been combo tested for feline aids and leukemia and are negative. In full discourse - these kitties are NOT a fan of getting in a carrier so the owner / foster has *always* utilized a mobile vet who will come to their home to vaccinate. Any future owner should be aware this is not likely to change - so they’ll need to be prepared to utilize a similar option for routine vet care.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in this animal? The first step is an application, which can be completed at www.cvrrescue.org/adoption-applications/. The adoption fee helps cover a portion of the care provided for our animals, including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm testing for dogs, FeLV/FIV combo testing for cats, deworming, age-appropriate vaccines (including rabies vaccine), and any medical care received while in our care. All cats and dogs are on flea/tick and parasite prevention for the duration of foster care. Notes about puppies: Adopters can expect a new puppy to have accidents, chew things they shouldn't, and have other normal, energetic puppy issues until they are trained, including jumping, mouthing, and general youthful naughtiness. If you experience puppy issues, please feel free to contact us; we’re happy to offer guidance. Also, if a puppy is a mixed breed, we cannot guarantee an adult weight. If your residence has weight restrictions or if you’re looking for a specific adult weight, we don't recommend applying for a mixed-breed puppy. We also offer rehoming services for pets currently owned by individuals. In these cases, we list the animal as a courtesy to the owner, and the animal is not currently in the care of CVRR, such that we can make no representation or guarantee of the animal’s behavior, demeanor, or health assessment. All information listed for a courtesy-posted animal is provided by the current owner and should be verified by any potential adopter. CVRR is a nonprofit organization. We have no paid staff, and all applications are reviewed and processed by our volunteers. Please be patient and understand that it may take 7-14 days to process your application, check your references, and gather follow-up info. You can expedite the process by providing accurate phone numbers and email addresses for your vet and landlord references, and by answering each question fully. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if the animal picks you, too. If it seems the adoption will be a good match for all, we will collect the adoption fee and complete the adoption contract. CVRR is a NO KILL rescue organization, and we have a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to all of our animals. If for any reason the adoption does not work out, the animal must be returned to CVRR. We will reevaluate the animal and choose a new home based on the best fit for it. May 5, 2024, 12:28 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. We have healthy feral and semi-feral cats in need of new outdoor homes! These cats make ideal residents for farms, horse stables, barns, and other suitable locations with outdoor shelter options. And they help with rodent control! The cats will all be spayed or neutered, vaccinated for rabies, and ear-tipped. The cats will require a period of adjustment to acclimate to their new outdoor homes, and we will gladly provide guidance and assistance with the relocation process. Barn cat adopters are required to fill out the same application as our regular cat adopters, however, we are much more flexible and less stringent with the application review process. Barn cat applications are sent to our TNR Program Manager following an initial review. We offer barn cats for no adoption fee, but we request a donation. This is because so many of these cats are unable to be tamed and therefore cannot be adopted as indoor pets. By placing them in a setting where they are safe and fed, you are giving them the best home possible for their circumstances; you are literally saving their lives. Many of these cats are in danger, unwanted, uncared for, are displaced or no longer have anyone to take care of them. They need a safe haven.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in this animal?

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Kasey is a gorgeous tortoiseshell lady who would love to live her best life outdoors. She is not happy indoors and will try to escape, but she loves blankets and toys....just watch that she doesn't eat them! She does not seem to be fond of other pets or children, so we are looking for an outdoor home with no young children, though we suspect that much of her attitude is due to being indoors when she would prefer to be outside. Her adoption fee is $75.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in this animal?
