My story

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

This is Aspen; a kitty that was rescued by a good Samaritan, last year. Unable to place her with one of our fosters, we have provided support to the finder while Aspen is in her care. We have a very hard time finding foster homes for adult cats but they need representation and the finders still need help with responsible rehoming.

We shared resources with Aspen's finder, early on, in hopes that another organization could help. She followed up on those resources and VOCAL helped by spaying the cat and giving her vaccines. This was where the kitty was named Aspen (which is also our director's name). She needed a name and it was a very sweet gesture to name her after one of our team. And we hope to do right by both Aspen kitty and her finder foster.

We have networked her before with no luck. We wanted to bring her story back to light, once more, because she really needs a forever home. Her finder has kept her for 6 months but cannot continue to keep her. She has nowhere to go and the dynamic in the household has shifted a bit. She is causing disturbances among the existing pets in the house and the time has come to relieve the finders.

Please share Aspen's pictures and story. She is one of so many ownerless, nameless cats. Left to live a life of hardship on the street.

She has been one of the lucky ones, so far. She has had a village behind her between her finder foster, VOCAL - Voices of Change Animal League, Ocala and Quality of Life Rehab & Foster, Inc. Let's continue building her village up around her and find this gorgeous queen a castle to call her own!

If approved, we will schedule a meet and greet. This is also usually the actual adoption. At that point, an Adoption Agreement is signed.

Additional adoption info

We can set up a meet and greet for you and see how it goes.

Special needs cat: $200

***Adoption fees can vary on a case by case basis. Most commonly, special needs animals or purebred animals carry higher adoption fees. This is done in an effort to discourage those that may be "adopting on impulse".

Go meet their pets

Our available pets are fostered in a network of loving foster homes. We do not have a brick-and-mortar presence in the community, at this time. Foster homes are the magic behind what we do.
We are not a shelter. We are a foster-based rescue and outreach. We foster a small number of various species within a network of approved foster homes. We do our best not to take on so many as to affect the quality of life of those we care for (or our permanent residents/pets).

We happily offer to create adoption profiles for fostered pets and ask anyone who has a pet in need of placement give us time to find them suitable housing. We cannot help your pet if you have waited until the final hour to find it a home. We need time (where you "foster" your own pet) to search for a suitable forever home.

More about this rescue

Quality of Life Rehab and foster is a grass roots effort to increase the quality of life for all animals. We are especially concerned for those susceptible to entering our shelter systems and those abandoned or injured by run-ins with man. We believe it is very important to remember that an animal's quality of life must be put before it's quantity of life.

We also try to indirectly improve the quality of animals' lives by providing community outreach through education, foster, resourcing, and hands on rescue. Our rescue effort was founded in our own humble home. It has, since, grown to include dozens of foster families!

We are often unable to accept new animals simply because we are at capacity, as are our fosters. However, that doesn't mean we won't help you find a home for your rescued animal or pet. We are happy to assist anyone willing to foster their own animal with adoption coordination and pet publicity.

We will pick up injured or orphaned wildlife and care for it until it can be taken to licensed wildlife rehabilitators. We gladly perform snake (and reptile) removal (we LOVE reptiles) and they are NEVER harmed. Any indigenous animals we remove are relocated to an area that suits them.

We will also help with the TNR (sterilization) of feral cat populations in limited capacity. This is made possible through of Sheltering Hands, Ocala, FL.
