You know how some folks like to be the center of attention? That's not me. I'm supporting-actor-material all the way. I like to sit back and observe (maybe judge a teeny tiny bit, too, because I am a cat after all), then choose where to quietly play or who to snuggle with. My foster buddies like to be in the spotlight, but I'm more like the one who plods along after them, smiling and waving at the crowd.
I've lived through a whole lot. I used to struggle to get enough to eat at the cat colony I came from, and then our elderly feeder died and we had nothing to eat at all. When Stray Cat Blues stepped in, half of my colony was so sick that they did not survive. I'm one of the lucky ones.
I am a very healthy, FIV positive, kitty. Most cats with FIV live long, comfortable, normal lives, even with other cats. My foster room friends are all FIV-negative, and we get along just fine! Which is awesome, because I love other cats.
I promise that if you give me a chance, I will never steal your thunder. I will cheer you on, support you, and cuddle you when you need it most. Would you like to come meet me? I sure hope so.

Additional adoption info
During review of the application if you rent your home, we confirm with your landlord that you are allowed to have the cat per your lease.
We also consider if a particular cat is a good fit for your home. Certain cats will do better in homes without small children, or without other cats. Other cats may need to be adopted with a cat that they are bonded with. So we make sure that the cat and the home are a good match before completing an adoption.
Some of our fosters allow trial adoptions, where you would have 2-3 weeks to make sure that the cat being adopted was accepted by the other pets in your home. If you are interested in this, please ask your Adoption Representative.
All cats adopted from Stray Cat Blues have been screened for feline leukemia and FIV, inoculated, sterilized and wormed when they first come to us. Additional vet work is completed for those cats that require additional care. Healthy, adoptable cats and kittens are then housed through our network of foster homes until they are adopted.
You are also welcome to come visit cats at our PetSmart Collegeville and PetSmart North Wales/Montgomeryville locations (see times for adoption showings). If you see a cat there that you like, you can complete an adoption application there in person.
Questions - email us at: contact@straycatblues.org. We are happy to answer general questions, and also put you in touch with the foster families for questions about specific cats.

• $150 - Kittens up to one year of age
