My story

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

Frankie (female, 3yrs, gray tabby) will be the heart of your home. She will greet you at the door with a chirp, and follow you around as you settle in. When you’re watching TV, she’ll look at you lovingly for minutes on end, until you invite her to join you and then rewards you with cute, chirping noises. Frankie is a calm, affectionate cat, who will do best as a solo cat. After a tough start, Frankie wants to cuddle up with her human and enjoy the sweet life.

Frankie was found scrounging around garbage cans, so small and malnourished that the Good Samaritan who rescued her thought she was a kitten (vets estimate she’s anywhere from 1 to 5 years old.). Vet care, an adequate diet, and lots of love in a foster home helped this girl recover and blossom. She is learning about toys and delights in having you play with her (a teaser wand is a favorite.)

You can find Frankie looking out the window over her domain, basking in the sunlight, and bringing a calm presence to your home. When the time comes for her supper, it’s a whole different story! Frankie knows her mealtime routine, and will get the zoomies when the can opens. After living on garbage, who can deny such a sweet cat her favorite dish?

Frankie is negative for FIV and FeLV, spayed, and up-to-date on vaccinations. To adopt Frankie, email adopt@kittykind.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All cats and kittens are vaccinated and tested for FELV (feline leukemia) and FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus), and if old enough, are neutered or spayed.
We will ask you some questions about your home and we will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Adopting a pet is a long-term commitment. We ask you to sign the KittyKind Adoption Agreement.
We will always take a cat back FOR ANY REASON. We will also work with you to place her in another good home if (after a period of adjustment) the adoption doesn't work out.
We do ask for a $125 adoption fee to help cover some of our food and veterinary expenses. For certain purebred cats (Siamese, Persian, Maine Coon, etc.), we request a $150 - $300 adoption fee.

More about this rescue

KittyKind is a New York City not-for-profit, no-kill, all-volunteer cat rescue and adoption group. All of us at KittyKind have opened our hearts and homes — and emptied our pockets — to save thousands of cats from neglect or abuse. Every cat we rescue is given food, shelter, medical care, a safe place to lay his or her head and most importantly of all, a reason to purr. We do not believe in rescuing a cat or kitten only to euthanize it if it has a broken leg or needs extended nursing care. We never give up if there is a chance of saving them. We take responsibility for each and every life we save and if a cat or kitten is unadoptable, they have a home with us for life.
We believe that animals are not property to be discarded, disposed of, or killed just for the crime of being homeless or unwanted. We believe that people should be friends, caretakers and protectors of animals. We believe that we must take responsibility for the life of every animal we rescue who through no fault of their own, is abandoned, sick, disabled, old or unable to care for themselves. We are dedicated to relieving their suffering, providing food, shelter, medical care and comfort until we can place them in a safe and loving home.
