My story

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

THE WORLD'S MY OYSTER

DOB 7/30/24

Hey everyone! I’m Glinda #good-witch (as in the Wizard of Oz), and I’m an outgoing, energetic, and curious tortoiseshell gal who got my name because I’m living proof that (as Glinda told Dorothy) “you always had the power -- you just had to learn it for yourself.” You see, I was found on the road as a tiny orphaned, unweaned kitten with no momma or siblings in sight. A Good Samaritan rescued me and turned me into PetSmart, and my sweet Foster Meowmy volunteered to syringe-feed me countless times, day and night. Thank heavens that I’m strong and persistent, and I learned to master syringe-feeding and later slurping up my meal from a shallow bowl. Yes, I know all about getting in touch with my internal power!

I’ve blossomed into a great all-around kitten who loves for Foster Meowmy to pet and cuddle with me. And I gladly accept Churu treats any time she wants to dispense them! I have loads of kitten energy, which I expend by running around and exploring before I check back with Foster Meowmy. I heard someone ask Foster Meowmy what are my favorite toys, and she replied, “The world.” Yes, just about anything makes me happy. I love to play soccer with my crinkle balls and catnip mice, but it’s just as much fun to bat around paper clips and bottle caps.

Now I’m ready to find my forever home. Could that be with you? I get along great with the other kitties in my foster home, but I’ve never met kids or dogs. Nevertheless, I’m young enough that I’d probably adjust pretty easily to new friends, be they little humans or cat-friendly pooches. If you’re looking for an adorable, fun-loving kitty whose motto is “the world’s my oyster,” I’m the girl for you! Arrange to meet me today!

If you are interested in Glinda 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.
