My story

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

Ishtar is beautiful cat with lots of love. She loves to follow people around and headbutt people to show affection. Ishtar is very adorable and tiny in size. When we first welcomed her into our house, we had mistaken her for a baby! She is loving and energetic, but still prefers a little safe space that is just hers. I found Ishtar digging in my neighbor’s trashcan, and she decided to follow me home when I got close. She really enjoys being indoors with good meals and love and attention. With love and affection, I’m so happy to see her gain some weight and become prettier everyday. I look forward to her finding a loving home.

Ishtar Melon is around 3 years old and is spayed, FeLV and FIV negative, current on shots, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped, and litter box trained.

Adoption fee: $100 (plus tax)
(Adopt 2 cats and save $25 off the total adoption fee!)

Additional adoption info

***Right now, all adoption fees are 50% off!!***

Adoption Fees (without the 50% off discount):

Cats under 1 year old: $150 + 8% sales tax = $162
Cats aged 1-10 years old: $100 + 8% sales tax = $108

* You must be 18 or older to adopt. If you’re under 18, you must have a parent or guardian submit an application on your behalf.
* All cats must be kept indoors. In special circumstances, we may waive this requirement on a case-by-case basis.
* We do not adopt to any home that will declaw an animal. Declawing is cruel and unnecessary.
* All cats/kittens must be spayed/neutered prior to adoption.
* Kittens under 6 months must be adopted in pairs or into a home with another active cat or cat-friendly dog.
* Your adoption fee helps to cover a small part of the costs of veterinary care. However, we strongly recommend that you take your new kitty to your vet for a check-up shortly after adopting to establish a relationship and a lifetime of regular check-ups and care.
