Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Shade is senior tortoiseshell kitty who recently lost her elderly owner. She was well-loved for 17 years and we are looking for the perfect person to continue caring for her for the rest of her life. She is loyal, affectionate, and has the most beautiful bright green eyes.
She is also a very talkative lady! She has an adorable, croaky meow and just wants to lay with her human all day long. She is declawed on her front claws and will make very soft biscuits on your lap. She gets around well, with just a hint of arthritis in her back hips and legs. She will likely need a monthly injection for pain management. And she appreciates pet stairs or small ramp to get up on your sofa or bed. She will also need a quality senior diet to support healthy heart and kidneys (we recommend Hills Science Diet for Adults 11+).
We believe she was the only pet over those years and needs to be an only cat. She is very stressed around other cats, no matter how friendly they are. Although, she would be ok with cat-friendly dogs! (no reaction to her two canine foster siblings). Although she has not been around children specifically, she is a very gentle soul and would likely do well with children 8+.
Shade is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, and has perfect litter-box etiquette. We also did a senior lab panel and the vet said she is in amazing shape!

We would love to find her a new home for the holidays! She deserves someone who will dote on her and give her all their attention and love.

We have many wonderful dogs looking for homes! Our dogs are mainly fostered in one of our many experienced foster homes. All of our animals receive rabies vaccine, distemper/parvo vaccine, bordatella, microchip, and spay/neuter, as well as being kept current on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. All of our dogs come with complete medical records. Their adoption fee of $450 covers their complete age appropriate vetting, as well as transportation to your area.
Our rescue doesn't have an actual facility in the New England area. Due to this it is not possible to meet them prior to their adoption. Our dogs are brought up to their new owners weekly! Our transport service is certified through the USDA. We have a 14 day no questions asked money back guarantee and the dog can be returned to us if things do not work out. We try hard to make good matches with our animals and their adopters so that everyone has a happy life together! Our foster homes love the animals in their homes and will fully disclose everything about them – some can even Skype or send videos for you to see them in action.
We can provide references from other rescues, previous New England adopters, and our veterinarians if requested.
Go to www.FORrescue.net and click on "Adoption" and then "Applications" to apply for the animal you are interested in adopting.
Please email us at info@FORrescue.net with any questions you might have about FOR or our adoption process.

More about this rescue
Friends of Rescue is a certified 501(c)(3) organization formed in 2009, consisting of volunteers who are devoted to saving shelter animals that are in danger of euthanasia. Southern shelters have a constant overflow of dogs and cats, little funding, and limited space. Once the animals arrive at the shelter, they have very little time. It is our goal to help save these adoptable animals and find loving individuals/families who will provide committed, FORever homes. We are NOT professional trainers or animal behaviorists; simply volunteers who are trying to save these animals from euthanasia. Each animal in our program is in a foster home and receives all age-appropriate vetting while in our care.
