My personality

My story

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

Horace, born on 3/6/2020, is an extremely handsome, deep gray/blue boy with sultry green eyes, luscious fur, and a strong personality. He is confident, curious, and very affectionate once he trusts you. He can be a bit sensitive to his environment so needs time to decompress in a new setting before he will show you his true personality. Horace is a friend to most but if someone rubs him the wrong way, he is known to hold a grudge-be that toward a human or another cat. He does love kittens and is a great mentor for a young whipper snapper trying to find his or her place in the world. But if a cat bullies him even once, he has no qualms sticking up for himself and then continuing to exert dominance. So, Horace needs a home with a kitten or very mellow, laid-back, cats who could care less when he’s in a mood. Horace loves a cat tree and is quite playful. He must be kept away from any kind of toy that can be chewed apart and swallowed because he has a notorious history of ingesting string, floss, and tails or ropes from certain toys-to the point he had to have an exploratory surgery to remove the foreign bodies he ingested. Horace may sound like a lot but if you keep him safe and happy, he will reward you with such a strong, loving bond.

Adopting from Sheets Pet Clinic cat adoptions is simple! Request an application, answer a few follow-up questions, then when your application is approved, we set up a meet-greet. The application helps us guide you to your best match. If we do not have your best match, we can refer you to other great rescue groups.

Write petadoptions@sheetspetclinic.com for application. Or you can find a printable application on our website under the Adoptions tab.www.sheetspetclinic.com

Our adoption fee is $100 for each cat 6 months and older, $150 if you adopt two 6+ month-old cats at the same time. $125 for each kitten, $200 for two kittens adopted at the same time. That fee includes spay or neuter, microchipping (we register the chip for you), testing for FeLV (Feline Leukemia) and/or FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), current, age-appropriate vaccinations, FeLV vaccinations for kittens, flea treatment and deworming. All adoptees receive an “exit exam” from one of our veterinarians before going home.

BONUS! Adopt a Sheets Pet Clinic cat or kitten and receive half-price vaccines for the life of your pet! More details on adoption.

NO RISK! Adoption fee is refundable for two weeks to make sure you've found a match for your household. Even after two-week period, we'll take the adopted cat back for any reason

Come to our adoption fairs, held every second and fourth Saturday at Sheets Pet Clinic (809 Chimney Rock Court, Greensboro, NC, 27409) from 1-3pm. At the clinic on those days, you can visit sometimes 40 kittens/cats at one time, interact with them in a quiet environment, spend as much time as you like with them in exam rooms. Foster parents or staff are always on hand to help you make the best match for your household.

Additional adoption info

Our $75 adoption fee includes: FeLV and/or FIV test, spay or neuter, microchip insertion and registration, age-appropriate up-to-date vaccinations, flea treatment, deworming, and any other medical care needed. Basic responsible pet ownership is annual wellness exams, booster exams, current rabies and distemper vaccines for cats & dogs. Dogs must be on heartworm prevention. Pet cats, inside or outside, must have tested negative FeLV/FIV, and proof of a negative test result is required. Cats and dogs in the household must be spayed or neutered.

An application with a vet-check and rental check, if applicable, is required before adoption. **To request an application, write petadoptions@sheetspetclinic.com.**

The adoption fee is refundable if during the two weeks after adoption you find that the cat isn't a match for your household. We'll assist in finding a better match. Even after the two-week period, we ask that our cats come back to us if the adopter is no longer able to care for the pet.
