My story

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

Sally, a five year old tuxedo girl, is extremely affectionate with people to whom she feels bonded. She has special rhythm to her moods. During the day she tends to be asleep, or hidden away. somewhere, but when the sun goes down, she comes out and explores the house, and is extremely affectionate (purring, rubbing against legs, chatty, etc). If you get out of bed at night to take care of something, Sally will generally come follow you and escort you around the house.

Sally likes to sleep on the bed at night, and when bedtime rolls around, she will come find you wherever you are to remind us that it's time for bed.

Sally likes to hide away from people she’s not comfortable with, but she doesn’t bite or swat. She doesn’t like being picked up generally speaking, but if she trusts you, she’ll tolerate it for a bit before she squirms.

Sally still loves playing toys and one-on-one games with people she trusts.

Unfortunately Sally and her cat brother have developed some antagonistic behaviors after he had a long stay at the vet, and her brother has some recurring health problems that would make it hard to find him a new home. We think she would be much happier where she can be the only cat in the house.

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.
