For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
Update: Spunky was actually adopted. Sadly after a couple of months, he had to come back to us. However, during that time his owner loved him and showed him attention. He may not be the most overly affection cat, but he has learned to love people and likes to be held. He loves to sleep with people. He doesn't want to be back at our shelter. Want to make sure he doesn't turn back too "shelter cat", one among many, just let us know and we will let you meet the improved Spunky Spud.
Are you wanting to try your hand at being a little Lion tamer????
Spunky Spud was on the euthanasia list at a neighboring county shelter because he was spicy. We chose to save this handsome guy's life and get him fully vetted so he could find a great home. And now he is vetted and ready for that brave person to come forward. Spunky may actually be a little wilder than when he came. Our volunteers have done our best to love him and show him that people can be his friend. However, when the volunteers are outnumbered 25 to 1 and there are sick kittens demanding attention and many kennels to clean, Spunky hasn't received as much one on one attention and love as needed. Right now he is still small enough that he is easier to handle. He has to be considered a soft feral. He does get along with other cats very well.
If you are adventurous and would like to give loving this boy a try, we would be so happy to work out something. If you need a cat for your work area where he will be safe, Spunky and maybe another one of our soft feral kittens would be great. Just talk to us about possibilities. Spunky deserves a life even if he isn't a huge love bug. But who knows what might happen if he got his very own person.

Additional adoption info
Our kitties are ALWAYS spayed/neutered and vaccinated before we put them up for adoption.
The adoptee will need to fill out an application and be approved, then they will be contacted regarding setting up an appointment to meet our available cats and kittens. If we feel it necessary, we may request a home visit. We want to make sure the adoption is a good fit for both owner and pet.

More about this rescue
Floyd County has the 3rd largest intake of cats in the state, including all Atlanta-area shelters. Floyd Felines was created to stop the weekly euthanasia. We pull sick cats and young kittens out of Floyd County Animal Control, now known as Public Animal Welfare Services, and take them to our private shelter where they are able to get necessary attention. We also pull hundreds of healthy, adoptable cats and kittens to be transported to Northern rescue partners to have higher chances of adoption. This work opens kennels at animal control so that it is no longer required to euthanize for space.
We also have a working cat program, where we match up “feral” cats to approved, outdoor homes where they can control the mice and snake population. These cats are usually some of the first to be euthanized at shelters, so we are thrilled that we are able to provide hope for their futures.
