My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I am very intelligent boy and would love a home with a person who has time to spent with me, I am very smart and you can even teach me tricks, maybe we can learn a fetch game with a soft toys?! You see I have a very curious mind. Best in single cat home!

I love to talk and always respond to my name.

I love catnip toys, strings, and even tennis ball to bounce around. I am also a talker and with a bag of treats you can teach me lots of good things.

My foster mom says I am a dog in cat's body.

I am a cat with a huge personality I love to be involved into everything you do in the house.

I help my foster mom to write emails, post pictures of me, walk all over the keyboard and even sit at the dining room table thinking maybe I can get a small piece of chicken -

I am NOT a cat who is shy, or wants to be alone, no no that's not me. I am social, playful, love attention, play time and snuggle time.

A bird feeder would be great so I can watch birds on a windowsill. So if you are looking for a very interactive cat with a dog alike personality - that's not me.

I just drop on couch with my paws hanging of the couch and take a good nap or climb on your lap. I am sort of that funny always in your face type of a cat, you know. Every one who meets me says I am sort of like a dog: smart and follow you everywhere.

I resemble a “miniature black panther”, I am a very social kitty, who loves company of people a lot! Overall, as the Bombay mix cat: I am intelligent, very playful, full of energy and attention-seeking kitty.

I am tall.
As a Bombay cat: Dexter loves people.
Expect to find the Bombay hogging the warmest spot in the house. That includes under the covers at bedtime. Most will converse with their people in a distinctive but not loud voice. Bombay cats crave human attention. They have loud purs and very distinct “voices.”

Bombay cats are not independent and aloof and that is why they do not like to be left alone for long periods of time. They need to be taken care of and given attention.

Bombays are often good at playing fetch. This is a smart cat who loves to play and will thrive with a family who is willing to teach him tricks, play games with him and provide him with plenty of interactive toys.

Do you have room in your home for this wonderful intelligent boy? Contact us.

Trained to use scratching post, loves corrugated cardboard scratches and cat tree. Dexter has perfect litter box manners.

Did you know?

Black cats have more baggage than your average feline. Seen as an enigma, a superstition, a symbol of luck – good or bad, depending on the tradition or belief, they are often misunderstood, or just plain looked over. Black cats have the lowest adoption rate. This is unfortunate, and not just for the cats- black cats make some of the best companions and people are really missing out! Although each and every cat has a unique personality, in general, I have noticed a few traits that really stand out in black cats. Here, in my humble experience is why:

Beautiful: From brownish to bluish to every shade of black in between, black cats are beautiful in the way that one can only imagine onyx would be, if it were covered in fur.

Loyal: No matter how many work trips or late nights, I am always greeted at the door. I am meowed to over the phone when away. Black cats are wonderful in being both friendly to all and dedicated to their person/people.

Adaptable: While some cats struggle with change, black cats tend to quickly adapt to whatever circumstances they are dealt.

Aware: Black cats seem to walk a line- they tend to be more calm and reserved than some other cats, yet they balance that by staying playful and active throughout their lives. They relish new toys, found objects, and are talented at entertaining themselves for hours (and napping for hours thereafter). The types of games they create and the ones they enjoy engaging in often involve others-people, cats, dogs, etc., and tend to be more complex, such as games of fetch and tag.

Smart: In a final word, black cats are smart. They are savvy to things going on around them, and highly responsive and capable of handling change, throughout which, they remain calm, loving, energetic companions.

3) If the application is approved, the Adoption Coordinator will put you in touch with the appropriate foster home(s) so you can schedule a time to meet the cats/kittens that interest you most.
Once you meet the cats/kittens you’d like to adopt, you let the foster parent and Adoption Coordinator know your choice.

5) Adoption contract is signed, adoption fee is paid, and we give you information to help your new family member settle in. We can provide the information about the cat/kitten(s) diet, preventative veterinary care, training...

And if you have any question a week, a month, or a year after adoption, we are here to help! If for some reason the adoption doesn’t work out, we always take the cat/kitten back.
