My story

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

Precious is a colorful female calico cat approximately 1 – 2 years old. Precious was dumped out at a trailer court frequented by a Trap-Neuter-Return group. Precious ran up and rubbed against every one’s leg that she could as if asking for help. Precious was taken to a safe place where she will stay until adopted. The foster mom reports that Precious is healthy and a very sweet girl. Precious is a lap cat and does love to cuddle and be petted. She has begun to play with toys and is very entertaining! As is typical with calico cats, Precious does let you know when she no longer wants to be petted. She gives a little speak and sometimes a swipe so she would do well with children who understand to watch for cat body language. Precious was getting along fine with the other cats who appeared in that colony at the same time.

Precious is clean and litter box trained. She is vaccinated, flea treated and de-wormed and tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV. Precious would love to have a lap to sit in and a place of her own. Please consider adopting Precious.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require that adopters fill out an application, which can be downloaded from our web site, www.bandocats.org under "How You Can Help" and "Adopt." Once it is filled out, you can email it back to us at bandocats@columbus.rr.com or fax it to 614-873-0972. Our adoption fee is $75. If you adopt two cats or kittens, we only charge one adoption fee. We do not have a shelter, so once you are approved, we will make arrangements to allow you to meet the cat you are interested in through their foster. All cats are in foster homes.

Go meet their pets

We have adoption events at the PetSmart on Sawmill Road in Columbus the fourth Saturday of every month from 12-2. We also have two cages at this PetSmart and you can stop in and meet our cats and fill out an application there.

More about this rescue

Black and Orange Cat Foundation consists of a small group of volunteers working on trap-neuter-return (TNR) efforts for feral cats and spay/neuter services for stray cats in the Plain City area. Plain City is a rural farming community that is situated in two counties--Madison and Union counties. Because we are a farming area, there are a huge number of "barn cats" that need to be fixed. We are the only group in this area working on an ongoing basis to spay and neuter feral and stray cats.

Never heard of TNR? Trap-neuter-return involves humanely trapping feral or "wild" cats in traps baited with tuna or other yummy kitty foods. The cats, once trapped, are then transported to the vet to be spayed or neutered. We desperately want to cut down on the cat over population problem that is overwhelming so many shelters and TNR is helping us do just that.

But while the cats we trap are feral, there are often kittens or tame cats in these colonies that can be placed in homes. The kitties on these pages have all come from sad situations. With a lot of love, medical help, and plenty of good food, these guys have all become lovebugs looking for forever homes. Won't you please consider one of them so they will never be lonely or hungry again?
