My story

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

Say hello to Ameera!  Her name means “Princess” in Arabic.  This poor girl was the victim of a fox attack that required the amputation of her left hind leg.  She has made a full recovery at her foster’s apartment and is now a happy, active housecat! She was rescued by a Virginia Beach resident working as a contractor in Jordan as part of his efforts to save some of the many, many street cats of Amman. As his time working there winds down, he’s desperately seeking loving permanent homes for them in the US - how cool would it be to add one of these babies to your family? Not everyone has a Jordanian cat, after all!

Even though Ameera had never encountered a human before being attacked by a fox she is a very affectionate little cat.  She is the first one to greet her foster human when he enters the apartment and will stand by his feet and meow until she gets petted.  She can be lifted gently and will rub her face against her foster’s nose while he gives her pets while she is in his arms.Despite her injury and the trauma she endured Ameera loves to play with toys and wrestle and chase her foster roommates.  Her missing leg does not affect her ability to run and jump and play at all.  She enjoys sleeping in her kitty cat bed near the window soaking up the sunshine and watching the birds on the balcony.

Households with dogs and children would be unsuitable for Ameera.  Her ideal forever home would be a quiet one where she would be the only cat or with another calm, relaxed cat.  Her adopter must be very patient with her and shower her with love to let her know that she can let her guard down and relax.  After all she has been through this precious girl has so much potential to be the perfect housecat!

Ameera has several foster roommates that she gets along extremely well with that are also available through Billy The Kidden Rescue.  Please consider adopting Eddie, Penguin or Frosty to keep her company and give her someone to play with! Ameera is about a year old, spayed and microchipped.  She is up to date on all her vaccinations and is FIV/FeLV negative.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have an adoption application to learn a bit about the home our cats will be going to and the family's motivation for adoption and expectations about pet ownership. We also have an adoption contract, which includes a no declawing and indoor-only clause along with a vet promissory note that ensures you will continue with the medical care and spay/neuter if needed.

We DO NOT do any out of state adoptions except on the NC border on a case-by-case basis.

We require a donation of $120 for adoption of unaltered kittens with a PTV Contract. All kittens receive vaccine series and wormings as well as medical treatment as needed. The adopter is responsible for obtaining their rabies vaccine and spay/neuter if the kitten is not of age at the time of adoption. We can provide resources for low cost clinics that offer these services.

We ask a donation of $25 to adopt Career/barn cats.

We require a donation of at least $140 for adoption of Spayed/neutered cat.

Bonded pairs adoption donation is $200.

Sometimes we require rental checks or home inspections. We always have a Meet n Greet to make sure everyone gets along. We encourage bringing the whole family!

More about this rescue

Our mission is to improve the lives of displaced cats and reduce feral cat population in Hampton Roads by socializing outdoor-born and feral kittens for adoption into loving forever homes. We are a VDACS registered 501c3 nonprofit, founded in 2014 with over 60 foster homes.

Our heart is in TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return of ferals), where cats are fixed, vaccinated, ear tipped, and allowed to live out their lives without reproducing. We are advocates for advancing legal and social acceptance of TNR in Hampton Roads. Our unique feral kitten socialization program has a 90% success rate in socializing feral-born kittens to become loving, in-home pets.

We are always seeking fosters, volunteers, transporters, and trappers to join our team!

We also appreciate donations! Find our most needed items
