My story

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

Hello faithful subjects ... Queen Criss-Cross here to tell you that I'm available for adoption. I am a beautiful, shorthaired, spayed female, tortoiseshell-colored kitty who is 4 years old. I am lovely, sweet and full of affection. Top of the head, back and base of the tail are my favorite spots for scritchy scratches. I LOVE humans and all the pets they give me. I do not enjoy closed doors. They prevent me from reaching my humans and that's no good. There should be nowhere that's off limits to a Queen. I enjoy playing with my toys, too. Other animals are not my most favorite thing. That involves sharing. Since my eyesight isn't 20/20 and I don't have the best peripheral vision, I am more easily startled when I'm touched suddenly from behind, so really little kids wouldn't be the best fit for me. But kids who understand that they just need to let me know they're there before reaching for me and sharing affection with me, will become my best friends. Sometimes I just want to sit near you and be admired from a distance and that's OK. Queens should be admired from time to time. I just want a castle to call my own with faithful, loving subjects to dote on me and shower me with all the love I can get. Please give me a chance! Adoption fee: $75. Adopt a pair: $110. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and 60 days of free pet insurance.

Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
