My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Pigwidgeon is an incredibly affectionate and gentle cat who craves love and attention from his humans. This super snuggly kitty often crawls into your lap or on top of your laptop distracting you from work, demanding cuddle time or an impromptu pet session. Whether you're working or relaxing, Pigwidgeon will find a way to be close to you, showering you with affection. Along with his brother, Hedwig, you'll find Pigwidgeon cuddled up next to you on the couch or in bed, ready to binge-watch your favorite TV show or movie.

When they aren't getting cuddles from you, Pigwidgeon and Hedwig enjoy relaxing and lounging around different areas of the house. It's always a fun game of "Where's Waldo?" aka "Where's Pigwidgeon or Hedwig?" to see where these two are passed out in the house sleeping next. They love to play, and if you bring out a ball or toss a tube spring cat toy, they will go all out like it's the Olympics! These sweet-natured brothers adore everyone they meet and share an unbreakable bond, so they must be adopted together. Interested in meeting Pigwidgeon and Hedwig, please fill out an adoption application to schedule your meet & greet.

**WTRF does not do single kitten adoptions, unless you have a kitten of similar age already in the home. We also do NOT break up bonded pairs.

**WTRF only adopts locally, and does not do out of state adoptions

Additional adoption info

Our goal is to find the purrfect forever homes for our cats & kittens, so we match them with their potential families based on personalities, lifestyle, etc.

Adoption process:

Complete an Adoption Application.
Once you submit an application, a volunteer will review your application, check your references, and contact you to conduct a phone interview with you about the animal and answer any questions that you may have.
If approved, we will then set up a meet and greet with the entire family during open adoption hours to spend time with the cat you’re interested in. (all persons living full-time in the household must be present during the adoption process).
If it's a match, we will then set up a date and time for you to take your furrever family member home.

**WTRF does not do same day adoptions to allow our adoption counselors time to call your landlord and vet references.
