My story

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

Sir Smudge is quite the complex fellow. He may seem timid and indifferent, but he's merely taking the time to study and become familiar with his environment. Once you've earned his trust he will gladly let you scratch under his chin. If you speak softly and shower him with compliments (and treats), he may even give you access to his glorious belly. Smudge requires patience and anyone willing to endeavor will surely win his heart.



Smudge was rescued his mom, Graycie, and four siblings.   Smudge is Smokey’s twin brother. He is a great guy, just a little timid and shy at first.  Therefore, he would do best in a quiet household with people who understand shy cats.  



Interested in adopting Smudge, his brother Smokey, or one of our other wonderful kitties? Please visit www.VivaLosGatosCatRescue.org and complete our no-obligation, online adoption application from any PC or mobile device. Viva Los Gatos is based in Cleveland, Ohio, and adopts to residents of Northeast Ohio. Adoptions to residents outside this area are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Additional adoption info

We like to think of ourselves as matchmakers for cats and humans. Follow these three simple steps to make to make finding your perfect pet a fun and rewarding experience.

APPLY
Complete our no-obligation Adoption Application. This is how we learn about you and your household, and identify our adoptable kitties that best meet your needs and environment.

EXPLORE
A Viva Los Gatos Adoption Coordinator will review your application and contact you to better understand your preferences. This is also your chance to ask questions about specific cats on your short list of adoptables. If we approve your Adoption Application, you will meet prospective cats and decide which are the best fit for you and your household.

ADOPT
If you decide to move forward with adoption, you will sign an Adoption Agreement. By signing, you agree to provide appropriate nurturing, a healthy environment, and ongoing veterinary care for your Viva Los Gatos kitty.

ADOPTION FEES
Kittens up to one year: $100 or 2 for $165
Cats one year or older: $80

Viva Los Gatos reserves the right to decline any adoption.

More about this rescue

Viva Los Gatos Cat Rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that rescues, nurtures, and finds forever homes for neglected, abandoned, and stray cats and kittens in Northeast Ohio.

Our founders have over 30 combined years of experience fostering approximately 200 cats and kittens of all ages and abilities. We have volunteered and held leadership and board positions with other local rescue organizations, and we collaborate with a large network of groups and individuals to achieve our mission.

Our dedicated and experienced volunteers foster our cats in safe and loving environments until they are adopted into homes of their own. We monitor every cat’s growth, health, and personality, and provide needed socialization and medical care in preparation for adoption, including spaying and neutering.

We will never offer a cat for adoption before it is emotionally, socially, and medically ready, and take great care matching the right cat with the right owner. Age, personality, and the little quirks that make every cat unique must meet your needs and be compatible with a potential new home. Our goal is for everyone to fall in love and live happily ever after.

Cats that are not adopted still have a home... with us. We love and care for our cats for the rest of their lives, so they are never hurt or abandoned again. Please consider supporting our efforts with a donation using the link below.
