Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Jolene, lovingly referred to as Jo, was owned and loved deeply by her owner, but they unfortunately could no longer care for her, so she is in need of a new, loving home! She is an adventurous, active girl with a curious mind. She is a girl who can be with other cats, but she does not interact with them. She is usually the outcast in their lounging together. She sits by herself on a shelf or bed and gazes at her surroundings. She was owned prior to coming to Catsnap and it seems to be she misses solitary time with her owner so we would think she would do well as the only cat.   She needs a laid-back, quiet home and enjoys her treats. If she was a human, describing her would be easy: assertive, confident, bold, decisive and even authoritative. She would do well running a Fortune 500 company.     Jo is not particularly sweet but the times when she gives you love mean it is from her heart and you feel such a great tribute from her. Jo is immaculate in her personal care and neat in her foster room. She is very intelligent and cannot be tricked by a toy or a treat. She can ignore situations that she feels beneath her.     She needs a person who is content with Jo being herself. She likes people talking with her and if she feels it is an intelligent conversation, she will take part too. Sometimes she sleeps her foster's brother's bed, sometimes not. She likes watching him on the computer and listens to music with him. She is an original girl.   Thank you for your interest in a CATsNAP cat or kitten!   If you would like to meet a cat, please complete the online application located on our website catsnap.org.    We do not have a walk-in facility; most of our cats are in foster homes.  For this reason, we require an approved application on file before we set up a meet and greet. &#226&#128&#139 Completing an online application does not obligate you to adopt!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.girl who needs stability and calmBeth is a survivor.  She came to Catsnap as a fearful kitten, one of only two survivors in a litter treated for distemper.  (Today, she is perfectly healthy.)  In order to feel safe, Beth learned to judge character and to pick and choose her people.  The people she has chosen at Catsnap are honored to be chosen!  She meows perkily to greet her people—only her favorites. Beth is very intelligent, and while she likes to be queen, she gets along fine with other cats.  She will also play!  Beth enjoys wand toys and active play.  Her litter habits are perfect, and she enjoys perching where she can be admired.   We noticed early on that Beth did better socially with a large male cat in the front room.  Such cats have come and gone, but when Ivan came to us, we realized that this pair must stay together.  Ivan can play too rough with other cats, but never with Beth.  At our building, we had to keep him in a cage because of his tussling, and we noticed that Beth always came near to see him.  We have set up a foster arrangement for the two, and they do wonderfully together.  Beth and Ivan are a ready-made family for you.   They are smart, active young cats with lots of personality and antics to enjoy.  Would you consider adopting them?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Playful, Talkative, and IndependentIvan is our philosopher and our poet at the building with his mind containing the secrets of his species from eons long past. He is highly intelligent and loves to share his thoughts with anyone interested. Our volunteers love to listen to him and while listening to all he has to say, they get to love on him! Besides Ivan's lovable talkative features, he also loves to play. He can play a little rough with the younger felines, but not in a malicious way. He just likes to have the upper hand.  We have learned that Ivan has a special bond with another Catsnap cat, Beth.  These two get along well (no roughhousing) and provide each other stability in a world that was uncertain before they came to us.  Ivan can only be adopted with his companion, Beth. Ivan does test positive for FIV.  Cats typically pick this up when fighting on the streets.  It spreads through deep bite wounds, not casual contact, and only other cats can get it, not dogs, humans, or any other animal.  FIV is simply a lowered immune system, and cats with FIV can live the same average lifespan as cats without it--as long as they are well cared for and kept indoors, as all Catsnap cats should be!  Ivan would like a chance for himself and Beth to have a home where they will be seen for the unique cats that they are, not for a diagnosis.  Could it be yours?
