My story

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

Rufus is sponsored by: Will & Stephanie McIntosh

SNAP Cats rescued Rufus from Whittier, CA.

PLEASE NOTE: Rufus came to us as a 3 month-old FeLV+ kitten in August, 2023. Since Rufus made it to adulthood (which is rare for FeLV+ kittens) and was doing so well, we retested him for FeLV on October 8, 2024. He tested negative! We retest FeLV+ cats who make it to adulthood because they have a 60% chance of shedding the virus naturally. Rufus is now in the 60% Club!

Rufus is the sweetest, most loving and vocal (when it comes to wet food) kitten ever! Rufus gets along great with the other kittens and cats, is extremely playful, and the cutest cat in our facility (don’t tell the other kittens!).

Since Rufus is now FeLV- he’ll fit into any household who wants a very playful, loving kitty!

If you’re interested in Rufus please fill out an adoption application at https://www.snapcats.org/category/adoption/catsforadoption/. Thanks!

More about this rescue

Animal shelters around the world are full. The first cats to be killed are special needs, elderly and those deemed “unadoptable.” That’s unacceptable.

SNAP Cats is a unique rescue and sanctuary in Santa Rosa, CA (Sonoma County) dedicated to special needs cats. We rescue special needs cats from all around the world, house them, then find them warm, loving homes. We believe, if given time, that ALL cats can find the home that they deserve.

All of our SNAP Cats, regardless of health, age or temperament, are available for adoption or foster care. Those who are not adopted, due to age, illness or temperament, are able to live out the remainder of their natural lives here, in a peaceful, healthy, serene environment.
