My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Gretchen est arrivée au Réseau Secours Animal en septembre 2024 après avoir été abandonnée par sa famille. Elle vivant dans un petit appartement avec sa copine Cécilia et plusieurs chiens. Sa famille a décidé de laisser Gretchen et Cécilia dans un refuge pour leur donner une chance de trouver une famille qui aurait les moyens et le temps de s'occuper d'elles. C'est ainsi qu'une gentille personne a pris en charge les deux chattes pour les faire stériliser et vacciner dans l'optique de les amener par la suite à notre refuge. Gretchen a eu des complications lors de sa stérilisation mais elle va maintenant très bien. Malgré tous ces rebondissements, Gretchen est restée une petite chatte charmante. On pourrait penser, qu'étant donné son petit format et sa grande énergie, Gretchen est toute jeune, mais elle a supposément 9 ans! Elle est très affectueuse et se laisse prendre dans les bras avec douceur, mais préfère les câlins au sol. Elle est une roucouleuse professionnelle et adore jouer dans ses petits tunnels ou avec tout ce qu'elle peut trouver sur son chemin. Gretchen s'entend bien avec les autres chats et pourrait vivre avec des enfants. Qui aura la chance d'offrir une famille à cette beauté? Gretchen est un chat adulte, donc les frais d'adoption pour elle sont de 290$. Elle est stérilisée, vaccinée, micropucée et négative pour le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF) ainsi que la leucose féline (FeLV). Des assurances santé de 6 semaines viennent avec son adoption. Vous pourrez avoir recours à l'aide de l'équipe des adoptions aussi longtemps que nécessaire. Vous avez aussi droit à une consultation vidéo gratuite de 30 minutes pendant le premier mois suivant l'adoption avec notre consultante en comportement félin FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).           

 

Afin d'avoir une chance de l'adopter, veuillez remplir notre formulaire d'adoption directement sur notre site web:  https://www.reseausecoursanimal.org/nous-contacter/formulaire-adoption/

 

 

Gretchen arrived at the Animal Rescue Network in September 2024 after being abandoned by her family. She lived in a small apartment with her friend Cécilia and several dogs. Her family decided to leave Gretchen and Cécilia in a shelter to give them a chance to find a family with the means and time to care for them. A kind person took the two cats in to be spayed and vaccinated, in order to later bring them to our shelter. Gretchen had some complications during her sterilization, but is now doing very well. Despite all these twists and turns, Gretchen has remained a charming little cat. You'd think, given her small size and great energy, Gretchen would be quite young, but she's supposedly 9 years old! She's very affectionate and can be gently held, but prefers to cuddle on the floor. She's a professional cooer and loves to play in her little tunnels or with anything she can find in her path. Gretchen gets on well with other cats and could live with children. Who will be lucky enough to offer this beauty a family? Gretchen is an adult cat, therefore the adoption fees for her are $290. She is sterilized, vaccinated, microchipped and negative for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia (FeLV). You will also be provided with health insurances for the first 6 weeks following adoption. You will also have access to the support of the adoption team for as long as you need it. You will also have access to a free 30 minutes video consultation during the first month following the adoption with our cat behaviour consultant FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).

 

In order to get a chance to adopt her, please fill out our adoption directly on our website:  https://www.reseausecoursanimal.org/contacts/adoption-form/

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All new adoption homes are carefully screened to determine if they are suitable. There is an adoption fee that includes the sterilization, initial vaccination of every animal, testing for FIV and FeLV of all cats at the shelter, and a 21 days trial period. A contract is always signed between the ARN and the adopter for their protection. A follow-up by an ARN adoption coordinator is often done either by telephone or by visit, and we also offer help/cousel for the life of the cat.

Go meet their pets

We hold weekly adoption clinics at pet supply stores throughout the Montreal area, and the South Shore to find permanent homes for our cats and dogs.
We'd love to meet you at our next adoption clinic!
