My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

India est arrivée en septembre 2023 au Réseau Secours Animal après avoir été trouvée errante avec ses chatons dans le quartier Parc Extension à Montréal. Elle était dehors à un endroit passant et dangereux. Des personnes avait attrapés les chatons et devaient faire stériliser la mère par la SPCA puis la relâcher. Une autre personne bien intentionnée a appris que India allait être remise dans la rue et a décidé de la prendre sous son aile puisque, malgré sa peur, India était sociable. Elle, tout comme ses chatons, méritaient de trouver de bonnes familles. India est donc arrivée au refuge pour recevoir les soins et la socialisation dont elle avait besoin. À la fin de sa quarantaine, nous avons découvert que India était porteuse du virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF). Pour plus d'information sur le VIF:  https://www.veterinairesaucanada.net/ressources-associees/virus-de-l-immunodeficience-feline-fiv/  Malgré cela, elle est en bonne santé et peut vivre une belle et longue vie à l'intérieur! India est une chatte discrète qui prend son temps pour nous faire confiance. Si on l'approche doucement, on découvre toutefois une chatte affectueuse et douce. Elle aime se faire gratter sous le menton et aime aussi jouer! C'est vraiment ce qui l'intéresse le plus! Elle est gourmande et de plus en plus curieuse. India s'entend bien avec les autres chats, mais ne pourrait pas vivre avec de jeunes enfants. India est un chat adulte donc les frais d'adoption pour elle sont de 290$. Elle est stérilisée, vaccinée et  micropucée. Elle est positive pour  le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF), mais négative pour la leucose féline (FeLV). Des assurances santé de 6 semaines viennent avec son adoption. Vous pourrez avoir recours à l'aide de l'équipe des adoptions aussi longtemps que vous en aurez besoin. Vous avez aussi droit, dans le premier mois suivant l'adoption, à une consultation vidéo de 30 minutes gratuite avec notre consultante en comportement félin FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).

India came to the Animal Rescue Network in September 2023 after being found wandering with her kittens in Montreal's Parc Extension neighborhood. She was outside in a busy and dangerous area. Some people had caught the kittens and were supposed to have the mother spayed by the SPCA and then released. Another well-intentioned person learned that India was going to be put back out on the street and decided to take her under her wing since, despite her fear, India was sociable. She and her kittens deserved good homes. India came to the shelter to receive the care and socialization she needed. At the end of her quarantine, we discovered that India was a carrier of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). For more information about FIV: https://www.vet.cornell.edu/departments-centers-and-institutes/cornell-feline-health-center/health-information/feline-health-topics/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv    Despite this, she is in good health and can live a long and happy life indoors! India is a discreet cat who takes her time to trust us. If you approach her gently, however, you'll discover an affectionate and gentle cat. She loves to be scratched under the chin and loves to play! That's really what interests her most! She's greedy and increasingly curious. India gets on well with other cats, but couldn't live with young children. India is an adult cat so the adoption fees for her are $290. She is sterilized, vaccinated and microchipped. She is positive for the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) but negative for the feline leukaemia virus (FeLV). Health insurances are offered for the first 6 weeks following adoption. You will also have access to the help of the adoption team as long as you need it. You will also have access, for the first month following adoption, to a 30 minutes video consultation with our cat behaviour consultant FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).

 

In order to get a chance to adopt her, please fill out our adoption directly on our website:  https://www.reseausecoursanimal.org/contacts/adoption-form/

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All new adoption homes are carefully screened to determine if they are suitable. There is an adoption fee that includes the sterilization, initial vaccination of every animal, testing for FIV and FeLV of all cats at the shelter, and a 21 days trial period. A contract is always signed between the ARN and the adopter for their protection. A follow-up by an ARN adoption coordinator is often done either by telephone or by visit, and we also offer help/cousel for the life of the cat.

Go meet their pets

We hold weekly adoption clinics at pet supply stores throughout the Montreal area, and the South Shore to find permanent homes for our cats and dogs.
We'd love to meet you at our next adoption clinic!
