My story

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

This kitty's adoption fee is 50% off! Thank you to Kia and Petfinder for the grant that made this possible!



Available now!



Date of Birth: 7/3/22



Steve is a small dude with a huge personality. He had a rough start to life, catching panleukopenia (kitty parvo) and being found in a construction site at the last minute, but he is a warrior and beat all the odds! Steve is as sweet as can be, he absolutely adores people and will greet all your visitors. He loves to play, cuddle and wants constant attention. 

Although Steve is the perfect kitty, he has just one flaw. Steve has fecal incontinence, and despite trying his very best to use the litter box, he will leave little "tootsie rolls" around without realizing it. This one flaw has left him overlooked while all his littermates have long been adopted. 

Steve would do fantastic as an outdoor farm kitty or at an indoor/outdoor home with some patient parents.




Kitty's adoption fee covers spay or neuter, rabies vaccine, age-appropriate distemper vaccines, FeLV/FIV test, flea treatment, microchip & registration and dewormer.



We believe that kitties need a feline friend! For their health and happiness, we highly recommend that kitties be adopted in pairs. If you adopt more than one kitty, you will receive a discount of $25 per kitty. Previous adopters will receive a $25 discount on their new kitty.



If this will be your first kitty, we suggest that you check out this site for a lot of important information: Cat Adoption Checklist. People think cats are easy pets, but they are very unique and there is a lot to learn. There is a lot of information online, and you are always welcome to ask us our advice.



You'll want to make sure you have all the basic supplies before you bring a baby home: nutrious food, bowls (not plastic), litter, litter pan, litter scoop, toys, scratchers & cat trees, nail clippers and a cat carrier.

Additional adoption info

Apply to adopt on our website www.bellavitanc.org
*Fully vetted includes spay/neuter, rabies vaccine, microchip & registration, age-appropriate distemper vaccines, de-wormer, flea & tick treatment, and FIV/FeLV test.
It’s true, there is no such thing as a free pet. But adoption should be affordable for everyone!
Did you know cats do better in pairs? Young kittens learn important social skills through play and interaction with other kitties. They also keep each-other company so they won’t get lonely while you’re at work!

More about this rescue

Bella Vita Animal Rescue Inc is a 501c3 non-profit. All of our funding comes from donations and our own personal wallets. Your donation is tax-deductible and will make a huge difference in the life of a homeless animal.
We are a small group of volunteers who do this in our spare time because of our love for the furry things in life. Specializing in cats, the pets in our adoption program live in foster homes; we do not have a facility. We are based in Statesville, North Carolina, but service all of Iredell County.
