My personality

My story

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

Negan wandered into rescue like an apocalyptic survivor. His eye was severely damaged and not viable (most likely from an untreated infection), plus he had been shot in the belly with a BB. Less than a year old, alone and homeless, he scavenged to get by and through his resilience never gave up hope. Through all the hardships, he somehow maintained his good nature and amazing personality. He is brave and fearless, extremely smart and crafty, very funny and full of character.
He loves sharing your pillow and gently pets your face with his paw as you fall asleep. He will nuzzle in cheek-to-cheek and purr to his heart's content. He is a big boy (tall and long) who thinks he is still a tiny kitten while he crambs his whole body onto your lap, or perch himself upright on your chest and beg for kisses. He doesn't care that his nose is cold and wet on your face, he has no boundaries and just wants to make sure you feel loved.
He is still very much a big kitten, full of energy and curiousity, innocent and trusting. He is friendly and talkative, sometimes his meow is followed by a question mark as he tilts his head and waits for your answer. He wants to know everything and follows you around learning as much as he can.
He needs to be entertained and can be a handful if he gets too bored. He loves to play with toys and likes hand-picking his favorites from the toy box. He loves other cats, he is confident and nice, and makes friends easily. He annoys the older cats with his shenanigans, but a young compatible playmate will always have a blast with Negan around. When it's time to chill, he will lick and groom the other cat before hugging them in his arms and snuggling up for a snooze.
At night when it's time to sleep, he likes to lay on your legs. In the morning when it's time to wake, he parks himself on your chest and looks at you, or across your neck like he is a scarf. It's impossible to wake up on the wrong side of the bed with this charming real life animation cracking you up. Negan needs a fun-loving home with another playful cat for a friend.
He is fixed and fully vetted. His eye was unable to save and was recently removed. It doesn't phase him one bit. He is fully recovered, happy and healthy, fixed and fully vetted. He's been through a lot already in this life, he's ready for his happily ever after.
*His surgery was fairly recent so the scar is still visible, but will fade, and as the shaved hair regrows it will cover perfectly. He had a flawless operation and recovery.

Go meet their pets

Our adoptable pets are fully vetted prior to adoption. Application, home visit, and contract are required for all adoptions.

We are a foster-based rescue, not a shelter. To ensure the privacy of our foster families in their homes, our adoptable pets are available to meet via the outlined process...

INQUIRY: Submit an inquiry via the adoption site or email us at underdogcatrescue@att.net. Please include the following information with your inquiry:
Name of pet you are considering?
Number of pets you currently have?
Ages of children in your home?
What city are you located?
APPLICATION: If the inquiry meets the general criteria as a potential fit for the pet, we will email the application to you.
MEET & GREET: If the detailed application seems like a potential fit for the pet, we will contact you for a meet & greet/home visit.
ADOPTION: If it is determined to be the right match for the pet and adopting party, we may proceed with adoption by way of a signed contract.
FEE: Our standard adoption fee ranges from $100-$200 per cat/kitten. The adoption fee covers our standard vet bill of intake and is not for a profit.

More about this rescue

ROOTING FOR THE UNDERDOG!
Underdog Cat Rescue was founded in dedication to urgent cats outside in the elements.  We help those who are lost, abandoned, or stray to ensure their immediate safety and assess their rehabilitative needs. We commit to fostering these needs until ready for placement into safe and loving homes.

SURRENDERS: We are UNABLE to accommodate pet surrenders. As a foster-based rescue, our ability to intake is subject to space and very limited. Our mission is dedicated to those who are homeless and need rescue from outside.
REHOMING: We are able to help with rehoming if you are willing to 'foster your own' while we post your pet adoptable and search/screen applicants on your behalf. There is no fee as a volunteer service, but you may be asked to cover the veterinary cost of having your pet up to the adoptable standard.
HOMELESS: If you know of a domestic cat that is homeless, you may contact us and we will help whenever possible.  If we can help with rescue and adoption (but are unable to accommodate foster), you may be asked for your participation or ability to temp foster.
FOSTERING: We are always in need of fosters. If you are able to provide a temporary home, please contact us!
SOCIALIZING: We can socialize feral and semi-feral cats to an adoptable status, but it is generally a longer-term foster commitment. Our ability to socialize one-on-one is very limited, in which that space usually remains occupied with a waiting list. If you know of a cat with this potential, we can evaluate and help with protocol for successful rehab and adaptability.
FERALS: If you know of a feral cat colony that needs help, please look into your local community TNR trap/neuter/release program.
DONATIONS: If you would like to make a donation or sponsor an Underdog cat, please email us at underdogcatrescue@att.net
