My story

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

Sweet Salmon was trapped late last year along with 18 of her friends on the property of a single residence in the North Hills. Although the kitties had a wonderful caretaker, the neighbors in the area were not fond of the cats and were not always being kind to them. All 19 of the kitties came to TCR after being trapped. The vast majority of them have been adopted, but a few - including Salmon - are still looking for homes!

Salmon has grown to really enjoy pets and affection during her time in foster care, but she is still nervous. She really needs an adopter who is committed to going slow with her, starting her out in one small room, and giving her time to adjust. She has SUCH an expressive face - you can always tell when something is worrying her. Once she trusts you, Salmon is not difficult to pick up or handle, and she will lean in for pets and scratches. She likes them so much sometimes she will just flop over, hoping for more.

Salmon has lived with (many) other cats in the past, and we think she would enjoy a friendly cat buddy in her forever home - with proper introductions of course. None of the kitties from this area seem to like dogs. We think that Salmon could do ok with older, respectful, cat-savvy kiddos who know to respect her space.

Salmon is estimated to be about 3.5 years old. She is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. Please consider giving this sweet girl a chance - we know there is an amazing cat in there just waiting for her chance to blossom.

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.
