My story

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

PURR MONSTER

DOB 9/20/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I'm Duke, a.k.a. the Lion King, a friendly, happy, and playful brown tabby fella with white tuxedo markings. I’m very affectionate with my foster meowmy and like to lie next to her in bed at night. I have the loudest purr motor that you’ve ever heard!

During the day I enjoy chasing, wrestling, and hiding with the other foster kitties. Only thing is that I don’t like dogs at all – doesn’t their barking drive you nuts too?

My birth momma left my sister and me as orphans in a nice couple’s back yard when we were only four weeks old. The couple fed us for a few days, but they were afraid that we’d fall into the swimming pool and drown, so they turned to our HOPE foster meowmy to find us homes.

I’m simply the cutest, bravest, and happiest tabby fella whom you’ll ever meet, and I’d love to snuggle into your home and heart. If you’re looking for a very social, well-behaved fella with perfect scratching-post manners and who’s an absolute sweetheart, arrange to meet me today! While I’m cuddling in your lap, I may just get you to guess the decibels on my purr motor, which sounds like an outboard motor!

By the way, if you're looking for a pair of cats, I'm very bonded to a younger foster brother named MJ #mini-Jack. Although we're available separately, it would be the cat's meow if we as besties could keep each other company while you're at work or on vacation.

If you are interested in Duke and would like to fill out an online Cat Adoption Application, please go to http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php . Submitting an application does not obligate you to adopt, but it initiates contact with us and gets the process started. If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site this feline will be this week-end, email us at hope@homelesspets.net , and a volunteer will get back to you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adopting an animal is a very serious decision and we want to be sure that our potential adoptive families have thought about the impact of this decision carefully. To adopt an animal through HOPE, we request that you complete an Adoption Application, a copy of which is available online for cats at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php or for dogs at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php. You may fill it out online or print a copy of the application and complete it prior to arriving at an adoption session. This will expedite the adoption process and will also assist our adoption counselors in matching you to a suitable pet.

We at HOPE make every effort to match our foster pets to appropriate homes. If you feel that we are too intrusive, please understand that it is because we care about their welfare.

Fees
All animals are neutered or spayed and have received age appropriate shots prior to being adopted. We ask that you provide a $100 donation for cats and a donation of $150 for dogs when you adopt your new family member from us. This donation helps us in defraying the costs of these and other medical needs of our animals.

Go meet their pets

Mobile adoption sessions are held on the weekends. All adoption sessions run from 12:00 - 4:00 pm at a variety of locations and days as noted on our website http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-locations/. For more information, please contact us at hope@homelesspets.net

More about this rescue

Our mission is to end the homelessness of cats and dogs through foster to adoption, feral cat Trap-Neuter-Return, and education.

HOMELESS & ORPHANED PETS ENDEAVOR (HOPE) is an all-foster, no kill adoption group based in the Houston area.

HOPE covers the cost of general medical expenses for the animals in the program, such as altering, routine vaccinations and treatment for parasites. Our foster families are asked to provide food, shelter and love to the animals for which they care. They receive no payment for the services that they provide. Without them, and the other volunteers who so selflessly do what is necessary to keep HOPE afloat, it would not be possible to run this nonprofit corporation.

One aim of HOPE is to develop a network of area rescue and humane organizations which will facilitate the rescue and placement of a variety of animals. The goal is to never have to turn away an animal in need. By forming a coalition of humane and rescue groups in the Houston area, we could potentially place all animals who need a temporary home until they are placed into a permanent one.
