My story

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

Ash and his siblings (Tab, Charlie and Cinder). were born on April 24, 2024.

Hi, I’m Ash—a lively and playful kitten with a zest for adventure! My absolute favorite thing is to team up with my sibling, Charlie, as we battle it out with catnip and ping pong balls. I’m also a big fan of lying in the sun and swatting at curtains, cords, or anything else that catches my eye. Hiding under beds and discovering new things to bat around is one of my greatest joys.

Though I’m full of energy, I also enjoy relaxing in high perches or snuggling with my siblings in a cozy crate or box. I’m incredibly quick and have been known to make a daring escape from my room and even slip out of my foster mom’s grasp!

I do enjoy cuddling with my foster mom and her friends, but I’m not really a lap cat. However, I do linger around for a nice belly rub. I’ve met the small dog in my foster home and while I’m not particularly interested in hanging out with her, I’m not scared of her except when she barks. I much prefer the company of my feline friends.

Please note that it is Fancy Cats’ policy that kittens have an age-appropriate playmate in the home. We also do not adopt kittens to families with children under six years old without seeing appropriate history/experience with cats.

Adoption fee includes spay/neuter and microchip. 




If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have. The adoption policies and applications can be found at the following links: https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-cat and https://fancycats.org/adopt-a-dog. Email us at  adoption@fancycats.org for general questions about our rescued cats. Email us at dogadoptions@fancycats.org for general questions about our rescued dogs.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
