Story
Protect your barn and outbuildings with natural pest control! Occasionally we have groups of two or three "teenage" siblings who may be too difficult to tame for regular homes, Some would likely tame up with time and patience, but with so many already-tame cats looking for homes, the best place for our teenage cats is on a farm. We also have adult semi-feral/feral cats pulled from local animal control facilities who were scheduled for euthanasia. They will require about 2-4 weeks of confinement in a stall or tack room so that they learn the sights and smells and sounds of their new home, and so they learn that they will be fed. We will provide a large dog pen, litter, litter box and food if needed. We require that the barn owner continue to provide daily food and fresh water once the cats are free - they will not stay and provide mousing services if they are not fed! They also will need 24-hour access to safe and dry barns or outbuildings for shelter. All cats looking for jobs as mousers will be spayed/neutered and vaccinated against rabies and distemper.

Story
Cash is very food motivated and very attached to his canned food, so he really needs someone willing to pamper him a bit. He'll nibble at dry food if that's all there is, but he goes wild over his canned Friskies and Fancy Feast. He loves to lounge in his cat tree in front of the sunny window, and really is a good boy. He can nip sometimes when very excited, which is why he probably is not the best for a home with young children. Cash is at least 5 years old, has been neutered, microchipped, is current on vaccines and flea & worm prevention, and had a negative combo test. Contact us at feralcatcaregivers@yahoo.com

Story
Buster is a big teddy bear! Vocal and loving, he has been on the streets a while so takes a moment to trust a new person, but once he trusts you he is all over you. The vet loved him and said he stayed calm even when they shaved around his wounds to clean them. He must have an indoor-only home so that he doesn't try to return to the busy parking deck he was living in (he actually enjoyed it because he flirted with people and begged for food and attention, so he would try to go back, but he was dangerously dodging cars). He seemed to be friends with some cats and fought with others, so if he goes to a home with other cats they should not be aggressive or territorial. He is current on vaccines, flea and worm prevention, had a negative combo test, and is neutered. He's a young adult about 4 years old. He has a condition called granuloma that means he always has small wounds that don't heal well, but Convenia injections every several months have lessened the severity. Can someone give this love bug a forever home? No set adoption fee but we do ask for an adoption fee of your choosing to help us help more cats like Buster. Adopter must have a cat carrier for safe transport.

Story
About 6 months old now, as a tiny kitten Leo had a scary adventure where he was stuck in a storm drain at a very busy intersection as cars were speeding by. Now that he is safe, he purrs as soon as you get your hands on him, but is still *very* shy to around new people. He will make a wonderful companion for another kitten or cat. Leo is also very treat motivated - you can get him to do anything for a crunchy treat! He will not be a good choice for families with energetic young kids - he's happy to be out and about and play and climb into laps when things are calm, but hides from kids, and he will take a while to learn to trust new people. He is currently being fostered with four unrelated kittens who have become friends in case you are looking for more than one kitten! He is neutered, had three FVRCP vaccines, has had his rabies vaccine, a negative combo test, is microchipped, and is current on flea & worm prevention. Campus Cats adopts to indoor-only homes and requires an adopter have a cat carrier for safe transport. We do not have a set adoption fee and instead ask for an adoption fee of your choice. We are located in Athens, GA
