My story

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

Hi, my name is Kylie! If you are looking for a super chill cat, look no further. In my 9 years I have learned comfort is key, if you give me a blanket, pillow, or a couch I will sleep in the same spot for up to 5 hours at a time. My favorite thing in the world is to be brushed, I can sit for 30 minutes while you brush my soft fur and make me beautiful. I don't make a lot of noise, and I don't know how to jump higher than the couch, I have not once stepped foot on a table or countertop.
 
Now that you know the highlights, I do have some medical information to share. I am FIV + but I can be in a home with other cats. Right now I live with 7 (!!) other kitties, my foster mom loves to foster! I am fine to be near them and even sniff a little bit, but sometimes kittens are just too much energy for me. Also, I am a diabetic kitty. My foster mom gives me insulin injections twice a day, but it is the easiest thing to do! I never run away or get upset, usually I even purr while I receive my injection!
 
I have been with my foster family for 18 months, it's so much better than being cooped up, enjoying a nice big home with blankets galore! I do think I would prefer to be an only kitty, or maybe live with another older cat or two, I am pretty easy going. 
 
Don't let my medical needs scare you off, I am a lover and will love you unconditionally forever!

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
