My story

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

Meet Puddles: Your New Best Friend!

Sweet and lovable Puddles is an almost 1 year old Shepherd-Sharpei mix on the lookout for her forever home! This healthy and playful puppy is all of 45 lbs of joy. With her adorable, oversized baby paws, she’s sure to bring a lot of fun and love into your life. Puddles is fantastic with children, showing incredible patience even when they’re hugging her and tugging her tail. She is potty-trained and know her basic manners. Food is her great motivator, making her a quick learner of tricks and manners, including a charming handshake. She loves to play catch at the park, hike through trails with her doggie friends, and evening walks through the neighborhood. She is so agile and so graceful when she runs through the woods, and boy, the joy in her whole body when she saw her first snow! But mostly, she loves to curl up and nap at your feet while you work. Puddles is vaccinated and ready for a loving family where she can share her boundless love and joy. Could Puddles be the perfect addition to your family? Come meet her today and see if she’s the one for you!

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
