My story

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

Meet Sebastian, a handsome, long-haired, black and white, Turkish Van complete with ear/toe tufts and plume-like tail.

This fluffy boy LOVES pets, scratches, and being brushed. His his loud purr will let you know just how much, too! Sebastian’s loyalty and affection are unmatched—he’ll want to be by your side, sharing every moment with you. He loves to play and will keep you entertained with his silly antics.

If you’re looking for a loving, playful, and devoted furry friend, Sebastian's your boy! Adopt Sebastian today and let this energetic and sweet boy bring endless happiness to your home!

When this dapper fella showed up at a friend's apartment building, he was limping from an abscessed bite wound on his front leg. My guess is he was abandoned when his humans moved away, leaving him to fend for himself and, because he was still intact, either got into a fight with another Tom or was attacked by another animal.

He was fearful when he was first introduced to life indoors but he needed time to heal and receive ongoing antibiotics. Once fully healed, he was neutered, vaccinated and combo-tested (= negative!). During his cage rest, foster mom, Caryn, realized he was starving for affection and connection!

Once he was given free roam of her home, we quickly realized he'll do best as the only pet. Foster mom gives him plenty of time to run, play and enjoy following her around, room-to-room. But because she has other cats, they need to be kept separate. So, if you're a retired couple, empty-nesters or someone who works from home - who is looking for the PURRFECT companion, let's schedule a meet-n-greet! Be sure to watch his Adoption Video and fall in L-O-V-E!!

You'll find his complete rescue journey chronicled in Photo Album #32 on our Facebook page: "Save The Leadwell Kitties". There you'll find videos and photos of ALL our rescued cats and kittens... including updates from fosters and adopters.

Sebastian's adoption will include his:
* Neuter surgery,
* De-worming,
* FVRCP vaccinations,
* Rabies vaccination (if old enough),
* Combo-test (for FIV/FeLV = negative),
* Flea and mite treatment (with Revolution),
* and Micro chipping!

~ $150. adoption fee, adoption contract and home check apply / $250 for a pair ~

* Please only contact us if you'll be making him a permanent member of your household and will be keeping him safe indoors.

** We do not adopt out kittens or cats where they will be the only pet at home. Kittens rely on each other for emotional support and continued social and behavioral development. For example: another kitten or cat will teach them when they're playing too rough or biting too hard. Plus, cats and kittens get very lonely when you're not at home! Having a playmate will keep them happier, healthier and out of trouble. **We offer a discount when adopting a pair!

Interested in becoming a much-needed foster? Please send us a message with your best contact info, the type of home environment you can provide and, most-importantly, the City in which you live. Thanks!
