My story

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

This young lady was seen scrounging food from a waste bin in a residential neighborhood with her kitten and pal Harvey. Neighbors alerted Animal Advocates' volunteers who set a trap and quickly rescued the little family. At first hesitant and wary of new environments, Peony is slowly learning people are safe and life indoors is easy living!  Peony will accept gentle pets from her favorite volunteers at the rescue.  She is slowly making progress, and we believe an experienced and patient caregiver will help Peony blossom into a lovely companion. 

Peony enjoys siting on the the enclosed "catio" and hanging with the other felines at the rescue - especially her pal Harvey.  Peony protects and assures Harvey, and increasingly friendly Harvey helps spicy Peony realize that people aren't so bad! Peony is Harvey's very best friend - they cuddle together every night. 

Peony has soft grey tabby fur and bright green eyes.  Her birthday is estimated in August 2021.  She has tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV, vaccinated as well as spayed and microchipped. Peony will take time to adjust to any new situation.  An experienced and patient caregiver will be best, one who will accept Peony for the cat she is and help her feel safe and confident. 

To meet Peony visit www.animaladvocates.net and complete an adoption application (located under the "Adopt" menu). A discounted adoption fee is offered when considering bringing home two cats.  And, as a bonus, you get to watch Harvey and Peony snuggle and in an adorable cuddle pile.  Thank you for considering a rescue cat from Animal Advocates!

Additional adoption info

Adoption Guidelines:
- Before scheduling a meet-and-greet with one of our adoptable cats or dogs, you must complete an application and interview with an adoption team member.
- You must be 21 years or older.
- All animals in your home must be up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed / neutered.
- If you rent, we will need a copy of your lease stating the landlord permits pets along with the landlord’s contact information.
- We do not place animals as gifts for others.
- Adopted animals must be kept as indoor companions.
- We reserve the right to perform a home visit.

We aim to provide high quality care for the well-being of rescued cats and dogs until they are placed in forever homes. All animals are regularly vet checked, fully vaccinated, spayed / neutered and microchipped. They are routinely treated for fleas and worms as well as any medical issues.

Except for a limited number of cats fostered at our headquarters, our adoptable animals are cared for in loving volunteer foster homes. We get to know the pets’ personalities and needs very well, striving to make the best possible match for both animals and adopters.
