Who We Are

Folsom Feline Rescue (located in Folsom, CA) began operations as a feline rescue organization on May 9th, 2000. John and Janet Bennett, founders of Folsom Feline Rescue, have been active in feline rescue since 1997. After the loss of a loving companion they began fostering kittens for a rescue group. In January they decided to start their own rescue group to focus on the Folsom area. We are a 100% volunteer, non-profit, tax-exempt corporation dedicated to feline rescue. Our main source of funding is from public donations and adoption fees for adopted animals. Folsom Feline Rescue is committed to improving the quality of life for homeless and unwanted felines by providing and finding homes, assisting and educating the community, and controlling overpopulation. We advocate compassion towards felines, community support, and the belief that felines are life-long companions.

Adopting a friend

Volunteer foster families care for our felines until permanent homes can be found for them. We provide the following services to each animal under our care.

• FELV & FIV testing for all cats.
• Rabies vaccinations for cats 5 months and older.
• Spay or neuter. All cats are spayed or neutered prior to adoption - no exceptions.
• FVRCP vaccinations.
• Heart worm, ear mite, and flea protection using Revolution and de-worming as needed.
• Microchip.
• Exam and blood test for senior cats over 9 years of age.
• Any other necessary medical care.

We have a revolving door policy for all animals adopted through us, for the life of that animal. If the adoption does not work out for any reason, we want the animal to come back to us rather than be abandoned, placed in an unsuitable home, or taken to an animal shelter where it may be euthanized.

Adoption Qualifications

All potential parents are interviewed to ensure the continued well being of the feline being adopted. After a successful interview, an adoption agreement is signed. The agreement covers the following qualifications for adoption:

• The feline must remain indoors only and is not to be de-clawed.
• The feline is to be provided with a loving home, nutritious food, and medical care as required to maintain good health, and never to be physically abused or otherwise harmed.
• In the event that the feline cannot be properly cared for, for any reason, Folsom Feline Rescue will be immediately notified. Under no circumstances will the feline ever be placed with any humane society or animal shelter. Instead, the feline is to be returned to Folsom Feline Rescue.
• Should the feline be returned to Folsom Feline Rescue after a two week trial period, the donation will not be refunded.
• Folsom Feline Rescue is to be immediately notified if this feline becomes lost.
• Folsom Feline Rescue is to be immediately notified in the event that the feline is ever euthanized (killed) due to a terminal illness.
