Merlin's Hope has several lovely, but shy,or slightly older Ragdolls who desperately need homes. We need room for the multiitude of cats needing to come in from local shelters and breeders. Because of this need for room, we are reducing the adoption fees to $75 for these particular cats. This applies ONLY to the Ragdolls marked $75 on their individual page.
We also desperately need foster homes for these sweet kitties. Please contact us at melindahug65@wildblue.net if you can help us out.
NewsMHCR desperately needs foster homes for the many kitties that are being dumped at Texas shelters due to the economic situation. Please consider opening your home to one of these cats.
Who We Are
Merlin's Hope: Ragdoll and Maine Coon Rescue (MHCR) is named after a beloved 16-year-old Birman, Merlin, who was dumped at a humane society because his owners didn't want to pay for the medical care he needed. MHCR is a private rescue and privately funded. We rescue Ragdolls, Maine Coons, and other long-haired cat breeds. We gladly accept donations, but are much more interested in finding quality foster homes to open spaces for the many cats currently on our waiting list.
Adopting a friend
MHCR requires an application, two personal references, and a vet reference. Adoption fees vary. Please contact us at melindahug65@wildblue.net for an application.
Merlin's Hope does not do out-of-state adoptions except to those states bordering Texas (Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arkansas, Louisiana). The adopter must be willing to drive and pick up the cat. MHCR does not ship cats under any circumstances nor provide any form of transportation.
Kitten Policy: Kittens (under the age of 8 months) must go into a home with another cat/kitten under the age of three or be adopted with a buddy. Special prices are made for buddy adoptions.
Come Visit Us!
MHCR does not have a physical location. Our cats are lodged in the homes of foster parents. Please call or contact us via e-mail, which is answered daily, to make an appointment.
