My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sissy's story as we think we know it today: Sissy was raised by humans as a young kitten then was tossed outside to survive on her own. Sissy became pregnant at an early age and raised her babies outside. No one knows what happened to this litter. Once again pregnant and on her own, a finder took her in to care for her and let her raise her babies. Due to getting pregnant at such a young age, Sissy's body never had the chance to develop into an adult size. Sissy is no bigger than a six month old kitten weighing only 5 pounds, half the size of an adult cat. Sissy once again has been tossed away from the finder to find herself taken in by a rescue. Sissy is so confused that she is not sure to hiss or purr when being touched. She is not at all feral but she does not know who to trust. Sissy needs a home where she can build her confidence and be a kitten that she never has had the chance to be. Sissy raised her last litter and probably will be great with a calm adult cat.
Sissy has been dewormed, microchipped, vaccinated, and tested for Feline Leukemia (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). Sissy has also been spayed.
If you can open up your home to foster or adopt, please visit our website at www.bhsva.org to fill out foster application or an adoption application.

Additional adoption info
Have you discovered a pet you wish to adopt? Great!
Now, the first step is to complete an adoption application on our website at www.bhsva.org. This is not a commitment to adopt. It is simply the first step in the process.
We will review your application for preliminary approval before asking the foster parent to contact you to set up a time to meet the pet. You may also have concerns about how the animal will fit your home environment. When the foster parent contacts you, you will be able to discuss your concerns with someone who has first-hand experience with the pet.
After you meet the animal, you and the foster parent can decide if this is definitely the forever pet for you.
