My story

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

Hi there! I'm Rosemary! I'm a 1 year and 2 month old, spayed female, medium size, domestic short hair, brown tabby. I'm a gentle and sweet kitty, who can be a little shy at first, but I love pets all over and will rub my face on you in appreciation. Once I get to know you, I'll sit in your lap and give you snuggles. I'm hoping for a home that can spoil me and give me lots of love and attention. Since I am FELV positive, I will need to be indoors and the only cat in the household. Ask customer service for Rosemary ID# A950618 for more info about me!

 

 

 

 

 

This cat tested positive for FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus).  She otherwise appears to be in good health.  Although she tested positive on the first (ELISA) test, she tested negative on a confirmatory test (IFA).  This means that she has eliminated the virus completely, is in the process of doing so, or has a 'regressive' infection.  Cats with regressive infections have a healthy antibody response that fights the virus and keeps it at bay.  The virus may reappear at some point due to stress, or the cat my live their entire life virus-free.  These cats are not infective to other cats under normal circumstances, but can infect other cats if the virus re-emerges in times of stress.  The disease is transmitted by actively infected cats that are in close contact with other cats, such as sharing food bowls, grooming each other, etc.  If desired, the adopter may speak with a PHS veterinarian to learn more about this cat and FeLV.  



Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010. 

You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by. Drop-In hours for Same Day Adoptions are 11 am – 5 pm, 7 days a week (closed major holidays).

We do our best to update our listings regularly, but we can’t guarantee every animal you see is still available. It’s also typical for us to have animals who haven’t had their photos taken yet, so you are welcome to visit our adoption center and have a look around!

To check on an animal's adoption status, please call 650-340-7022 during normal business hours to speak with an adoption counselor. Emails will be returned as soon as possible, but please allow up to 48 hours during busy adoption periods like weekends.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

When a potential adopter comes into the shelter and sees an animal he or she is interested in adopting, we ask the potential adopter to first complete an Adoption Profile. Then, one of our knowledgeable customer service representatives brings the adopter and animal together in one of our Get Acquainted Rooms. There they have a quiet, private space to get to know each other better. During the visit, the customer service representative may discuss the following:

- past experiences with animals and current animals in the home
- lifestyle, including work schedule and the kinds of activities they plan to do with their companion animal
- housing situation - own or rent, size of yard, etc
.
In order to make the best match possible for a family and home, we suggest potential adopters bring along all members of the household to meet the new companion animal and bring their current dog(s) to meet a potential dog. Adopters must also be 18 or older. Again, thank you for thinking of PHS/SPCA. We hope you find the companion animal you are looking for.

PHS/SPCA reserves the right to deny adoptions. Our priorities are the health, safety and future well-being of the animals in our care and the health, safety and expectations of people who visit us with hopes of finding a pet who will match their interests, lifestyle and existing companion animal(s).

More about this shelter

PHS/SPCA, a private non-profit guided by the humane ethic, builds healthy relationships between people and animals. As an ethical choice, we accept all animals in need of care and often provide a second chance to the neediest animals: those who would otherwise be turned away at so-called “no kill” agencies that accept only highly adoptable animals. We also serve as our County’s provider of animal rescue and control services and, as such, have no control over the number of incoming animals. Our record is outstanding. Since 2003, we have adopted 100% of healthy, adoptable dogs and cats. Our definition of “healthy” is based on the State’s definition: dogs and cats without medical or behavioral issues, those that are fully weaned and social. It excludes obviously unhealthy animals (those with injuries and illnesses or those behaviorally scarred from past treatment and mistreatment) as well as unweaned kittens and feral cats. Still, donations to our Hope Program allow us to make well, then place into new homes approx. 170 animals every month. In February 2008, the Society celebrated accreditation by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) following a comprehensive review of the shelter’s veterinary program. Community education and outreach, partnerships, and a dedicated volunteer group greatly extend our mission and work. Read more at www.PHS-SPCA.org.
