My story

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

??Everyone poops??
Dogs. Cats. Heck, we bet that even *YOU* poop (gasp!!!). So really, you won`t be surprised when we tell you that Freedom here - he poops.
At four years old, tiny Free Free has gone through a lot of shi...stuff. Found as a kitten with burrs covering his whole behind, he had difficulty using the litterbox before he was diagnosed with a rectal stricture (in scientific terms, his poop chute didn`t operate properly).
After months of surgical procedures, the stricture was resolved successfully! But Freedom isn`t exactly `regular`: he uses the litterbox, but inevitably he leaks a little. From the butt.
***
Before we share more about this Lil` Turd`s little turds, let`s tell you a little bit about **him**, and why he`s a delight and purrfect companion. No bull??.
??Freedom is an affectionate, petite cat at only 5lb (fully grown!).
??He loves kissing people and snuggling with dogs (his purrrrfect home will have a dog to play with!).
??Fun with feather toys and other games, food, and chin scratches are all on the menu when you hang out with Free Free.
***
So what kind of care does Freedom need?
??Despite his poopy problem, Freedom is well litterbox trained (he`s never urinated outside the litterbox, and his major stools all go there without problem).
??From a care perspective, his Foster mom uses a quick wet wipe on him twice daily (along with a weekly bath which he takes like a champ!) to keep him cleaner than a Charmin Bear`s bum.
??Freedom wears a diaper when he`s wandering outside of his room - and let`s be real, that`s ADORABLE.
??He takes probiotics and special food to help manage his stool.
Freedom also has asymptomatic Feline Coronavirus, which means he will need to be the only cat in the household, but does not currently require any care or treatment for the condition.
***
We know it will take a special someone to adopt a cat with an anal anomaly. But Freedom is, ultimately, a perfect cat. He`s playful, cuddly, and loves everyone - he`s special in the truest sense of the word. As his Foster said, she`d be happy to have him live in her office with her forever, but he deserves a chance at a real home. And it`s our job to help him find one.
??Everyone poops?? BUTT... only one very special someone will get to take Freedom home.

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Animal Allies Rescue Foundation (AARF). At the heart of our work is ensuring that each AARFie is matched with a family that is going to be their forever family. The application process is the first step in helping us understand you, your home, and factors that may help us determine if this pet is a great match for you — or, help you find a fit that will be. Please complete all the information in our species specific adoption applications; missing information may delay the adoption screening process.

Please note:

AARF only adopts pets to people in the Baltimore/DC metro region. In certain circumstances, we will consider homes in closer areas Pennsylvania, Delaware and Northern Virginia. This is due to the required home visit and long term ability to support the adoption. If you live outside of an hour radius of Baltimore, it is unlikely that your application will be approved.

Completion of the application form does not guarantee AARF will place one of our pets in your care. Many of our animals receive multiple applications, and we evaluate each applicant on fit for the specific animal (not first come first serve).

Completion of the application authorizes AARF to verify any information contained herein, including verification of medical records of any present or prior pets treated by the veterinarians listed.

AARF utilizes Truthfinder, a leading provider of public data about people and their connections to others, to verify certain information provided on foster and adoption applications. Truthfinder does not provide consumer reports and is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Completion of the adoption application is an indication that the information contained within this application is accurate and not misleading in any way.

All adoptions are at the sole discretion of AARF.

We also remind you that animals are not a short-term commitment, and as such, please give careful consideration to adopting an animal. Make sure your lifestyle allows the time, patience and expenses this animal will need over the years.
