Alva's Story

2/6 update: Meet Alva! 🐾 Alva is a 5-month-old kitten who is up to date on vaccines and already spayed—ready to head straight into her forever home. She has been patiently waiting, filling her days with playtime, snuggles, big happy purrs, and helping with the quality control of every cat bed she can find. This sweet girl is absolutely adorable. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly and soon shows her affectionate, gentle nature. Alva loves mealtime, enjoys playing with other kitties, and is happiest when curled up in a cozy bed for a well-earned nap. If you’re looking for a loving, playful kitten with a soft heart and a loud purr, Alva might be the perfect match for you. https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form 1/15/26 update: Alva is a 4-month-old sweetheart with the most beautiful silver tabby coat. She’s a typical toddler—always on the move, playing with her toys and looking for her next adventure. Alva loves mealtime and, once she’s tuckered out, will happily snuggle up with her big, rumbling purrs. She is spayed and up to date on all vaccines. https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form Alva is a sweet 15-week old kitten with a gentle, slightly shy personality. She loves finding cozy spots to nap, playing with her toys, and keeping a watchful eye on her buddy Hermie—they meet in foster care and have been quite inseparable ever since. Alva was recently spayed, is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, eats well, and uses the litter box like a big kid. She’s a sweet girl with curious eyes, ready to spend the holidays with a loving family. Alva would do well with children, other cats, and small cat-savvy dogs. She’s ready for her forever home! https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form All kittens have been examined, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas, felv/fiv tested negative and spayed/neutered. An adoption donation of $150 is being asked to cover a portion of their veterinary and living expenses.

Please complete an adoption application with your inquiry if you are interested in adopting. You will receive a confirmation email once your application is submitted. We are all volunteers so please be patient and be sure to complete your application fully.... don't let your inquiry get passed by because of an incomplete application. Thanks in advance for your help! Help our rescue by donating to our "Spay the momma fund".

All Creatures Big And Small, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

All Creatures Big and Small is a foster based rescue, all of our animals are in foster homes. Since we don't have a shelter building, meet and greets are arranged after an application has been approved typically in the foster home. Foster homes are in Jefferson, Oswego and Onondaga counties (NY). The first step in our adoption process is filling out an adoption application. Please be sure to read the application and follow instructions. You MUST contact your current/previous vet upon filling out your application to say it's ok to release veterinary information to us. Once the vet reference check has been completed you will review an email or phone call from our dog or cat coordinator for additional information and to do a phone interview. This typically takes place within 24-72 hours. If all goes well, a meet and greet is scheduled. All family members must come to the meet and greet (including dogs) to make sure it is a good match and everyone is on board to adopt a new pet. If it is decided that the pet is a good match, an adoption can be done at that time and the pet can go home with you All adopters must live within 500 miles of Lacona, NY. We will not ship pets and all family members must travel to the adoption to be sure the pets and family are good with the potential new adoption.
