My story

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

Have you ever wanted to adopt a raccoon but realized you can't? Opt for a "trash cat" instead of a "trash panda"! Meet Lu! With her white-tipped tail, spunky demeanor, and love for bread, she's part raccoon at heart. Lu brings fun and a bit of chaos to any home.

Lu, around 3 years old, joined Trash Cat due to her previous owner's housing issues. Full of energy, she needs ample mental and physical stimulation. Ideal for a home with space and structured playtime, Lu enjoys watching out windows, stealing carbs and birdseed, chewing on shoelaces, and lounging in the sun. While not overly cuddly, she loves human company, greeting you at the door, and bringing toys when she wants to play.

Lu does well with older, cat-savvy kids and has adjusted to living with her foster's resident cat. She could live with another playful but respectful cat and prefers a dog-free home. She can exhibit stress a bit more easily than some cats, and to manage this, Lu is on a special urinary diet (Hills CD Multicare + Stress) and a sprinkle capsule medication which "takes the edge off". This capsule is inexpensive and easy to administer with food twice daily. Lu prefers starting in a single room before exploring a new home and thrives in quieter environments with stable routines.

Lu has been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. Give this silly little character a second chance at a home and apply to adopt Lu today!

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Typically we talk a little with potential adopters to find a cat who is a good fit before sharing the application.

2.

Approve Application

We check over the application including checking vet references and doing landlord checks.

3.

Interview

We spend more time chatting with the adopters to specifically go over any questions from the application and details about the specific cat.

4.

Meet the Pet

Potential adopters have a meet and greet with the cat or kitten in the foster home.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

At the meet and greet, if all goes well, the adoption contract can be signed, the fee can be paid, and the pet can go home!

6.

Pay Fee

7.

Take the Pet Home

Additional adoption info

We try to do our best to make sure we find good fitting, responsible homes, without wasting a lot of our time. Our app has a lot of screening questions which help eliminate potential adopters who might not be serious (they usually just don't return the app), or not a good fit, which is why the in depth interview happens once the app is returned.

More about this rescue

We are a small but dedicated 501c3 nonprofit cat rescue specializing in making one person's garbage kitten another person's forever cat.

Our mission is to reduce feline suffering and overpopulation using a combination of TNR and adoptions. We foster and socialize whenever we have the resources to do so, including behavioral cats and kittens who might otherwise just be candidates for TNR.
