My story

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

Beans is a sweet cat who is food motivated. She prefers wet food over the dry food. She loves to snack and sleep. She is very athletic and loves to play with jumping toys, but loves cardboard boxes more. She should be monitored with the cardboard boxes, as she likes to chew on them too. Beans loves to bird watch and watch ASMR videos on YouTube. She may be slow to touching and being held, but once she is comfortable she will come to you to snuggle, get head and neck scratches and eventually will allow you to give her belly rubs as she rolls over the place. She is a bit skittish, so she doesn’t like loud noises or sudden movements. She will be ok with picking her up, if you support her whole body. She would love to be adopted with her sister Boba.

 

Boba is a very easy going and is motivated by affection. She seems to prefer dry food over wet food (or maybe that’s the agreement she has made with Beans, when fresh food is placed down for them). She loves lots of pets and at times will be your best lap kitty. After 3 days in the foster home, she started to jump up on the dresser, walk up the front of the foster with her two front legs, and give hugs. Both in the adoption center and in the foster home, she is a big fan of jumping on the back of the human bending over to switch out food/water bowls or clean the litterboxes. She has a very curious personality and loves to keep busy. Her games of choice is swirly toys and furry stuffed animals. She loves to bat ping pong balls back and forth with her sister or the human in the room. She is confident and doesn’t get spooked by much. She plays well alone or with others. She loves to solve food puzzles and will share her winnings. She has a very good temperament and is very well adjusted. She would love to be adopted with her sister Beans.

 

These two bonded sisters are the gentlest, sweetest, quietest cats their foster has come across in years. They show zero aggression when the resident cat hisses on the other side of the closed door. Their meows are so quiet, they sound like kittens (unless they are in a car). They have excellent litterbox behavior. They are climbers and chasers, so they would need a home that would provide space to run and climb.

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.
