My story

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

Calling all FeLV+ cat lovers! Are you looking for the perfect little sweetheart of a cat?

Introducing Brooke! Brooke came to TCR after she was found as a stray. Brooke is a super sweet girlie who perpetually looks a bit surprised and startled - those big, wide dinner plate eyeballs are just part of her very endearing aesthetic. Clocking in at less than 7lbs, Brooke may be a small cat, but there is a lot of love and endless biscuit-making power in those dainty paws.

Brooke's favorite things are snuggling in laps, treats and snacks, and flopping over to get hard at work in the biscuit factory. She is currently being fostered with another FeLV+ cat, Skye, and the two get along like gangbusters. Brooke and Skye both are a bit shy at first, but with a little love and patience, they are sure to come out of their shells in no time.

Brooke and Skye could be adopted together, as solo kitties, or to homes with other FeLV+ cats. We think that either one of them would do fine with older, respectful kiddos who can be patient at first. Brooke would thrive best with an adopter willing to start her off in one small room in their home, until she is comfortable and ready for more space.

Brooke is estimated to be a little over a year old. She has been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV-/FeLV+ (progressive). This chronic illness doesn't currently affect Brooke's daily life much; however, the FeLV virus may eventually affect her health and lifespan, as FeLV impairs the cat's immune system. Becoming established with a vet supportive of treating an FeLV+ cat, controlling secondary infections, and treating other illnesses as they arise is essential to maintaining an FeLV+ kitty.

Are you looking to adopt an adorable perma-kitten? (Or two?) Consider Brooke, or Brooke and Skye together!

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.

7.

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.
