Four Paws and Tail Rescue

Cat rescue in Elkton, MD

Four Paws and Tail Rescue was founded by an 18 year old girl. She has always had a big heart for animals, even at a younger age. Four Paws and Tail Rescue was founded in Ocotober of 2006. FPTR's mission is to save cats from inhumane situations, abusive/violent situations and situations in which the animal(s) are neglected. We take these animals into our care and give them proper medical care, proper food and socialize them.

AS of right now, this rescue is very small.

We pay for everything out of thier pockets. There many times when the medical costs become very high. No matter what these animals recieve medical care ASAP! We use a variety of different vets for our animals. One vet we use is called Cherry Hill Dog and Cat Hospital they are very close to our home and we have had many emergencys and they have been kind enough to take us in.


Four Paws and Tail Rescue is currently NOT a 501 c3 tax exempt organization, but we hope to be one day soon. There is an adoption application to fill out before you can adopt an animal from us.

Please look on our main site for any more information. www.fourpawsandtailrescue.org

Additional adoption info

*We ReQUIRE an adoption application that MUST be completed and submitted via our website, www.fourpawsandtailrescue.org. This must be completed FIRST before we will consider you for adoption or to meet a kitten or cat.

** There is an adoption FEE as well. All of our kittens and cats are FULLY vetted before going home- they are all spayed/neutered, micro chipped, UTD on their rabies shot, receieved their series of FVRCP shots, neg. for fiv/felv, de-wormed, bathed weekly and also get their nails trimmed. We do not adopt out our kittens until they are at least 12 weeks and have been spayed/neutered, sometimes they are a little older.

Please READ our website carefully all of this is stated on our website as well as more information and pictures about the kittens and cats. Also, if an animal says "Adoption Pending" or "Adopted" this means we have an application on the kitten/cat and are processing the application if the kittens status says "Adopted" this means they have been adopted.

Thank you.
