My story

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

 Hello! My name is Robin! I had a tough start to life but my luck turned around when I wandered into my foster mom’s driveway! I was completely blind from infection and “skin and bones” when she found me, so it’s anyone’s guess how I got there. I ended up having to have my left eye removed but my right eye is more than enough to help me get into all kinds of mischief. Now I’m a healthy, ball of orange cat energy! I love to play with my doggie foster siblings and really want my foster kitty sister to like me, but she’s still getting used to me. I love the other kittens I’ve met and have boundless energy, though I do sometimes play too rough since I was raised as a “single kitten”. I don’t mean it though, and we’re working on my play manners. I have the loudest purr that I’m quick to show off and am a cuddle bug once I finally tire myself out.

I’ll need a home with lots of play time, attention, and patience with my wild child energy. I will happily sleep in your arms like a baby and don’t mind you trimming my claws. I get the zoomies often and love to run and climb as high as I can get. My favorite toys are anything with feathers or crinkly plastic! I’ll happily entertain myself with a plastic bag or hair tie as long as I can chase it! I love to steal my foster mom’s ice cream or whipped cream when she’s not looking and am very persistent at meal times.

I’m a big girl now at about 12 weeks old and I’m litter trained, dewormed, combo tested, FELV/FIV negative, and have had my first round of vaccines. I do have some trouble with depth perception, and sometimes I run into things or topple off furniture in my excitement. I don’t always pay attention to where I am and need someone who is able to keep me inside so I don’t get hurt. I would love to have a playmate around my same age or energy level!

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.

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.
