Catalina's Story

******Please do not email asking if a pet is still available. The cats/kittens are removed from the site once we have received enough applications to review. Thank you!******<br/><br/>Catalina ~ Female ~ Dilute Calico ~ Estimated DOB: 7/16/2018 (Approx: 3 years old)<br/><br/>Catalina was taken in by our ACO when it was discovered that her babies were being sold on Craig's List while being very underage. The ACO was able to gather back up most of her babies and Catalina was allowed to finish feeding and weaning them as all mothers should. <br/><br/>Catalina was never treated as a family member by her previous owner so she was very scared and not very handleable when she arrived. Now that she is spayed and being worked with she is becoming use to the fact that she can be loved. Catalina has come a long way. <br/>She greets you at the door. Likes to sit on your lap and be brushed every day. She's become a happy cat. We are looking for a home where she can continue to see that she is deserving of a good life. She deserves at least that doesn't she?<br/><br/>Our adoptions run as follows:<br/><br/>SCHEDULED VISITS: We are a rescue group which means all of our cats/kittens are technically in foster care. We are not set up for drop in visits.<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE: Our adoption fee is $150 per pet.<br/><br/>APPLICATION: Our adoption application is posted here: http://bit.ly/app-cats<br/>(copy and paste into your web browser's address bar) or you will find it located in our “MORE ABOUT US” section. Once we receive your application, and a background check is completed, a meeting with the pet of your choice will be scheduled.<br/><br/>AGE: You must be 21 or older to adopt from our rescue. Sorry!<br/><br/>NO STATE RESTRICTIONS: We do not restrict our adoptions to RI.<br/><br/>CONTACT: All of our contact is done through e-mails until you are called by David who is the gentleman that reviews all of our applicants.<br/><br/>PERSONALITIES: All the information available about this pets personality, likes, background, etc... are listed in this write up. Remember – most of our pets come from off the streets and we are just learning about them also.<br/><br/>COMPATIBILITY: Our foster couple only have cats and kittens in their home. We have no way of knowing what the reaction would be with our foster animals meeting your children or pets. As with all new introductions, it would take time and effort on your part to introduce them slowly and give them their own space when needed.<br/><br/>HEALTHY - All of our pets will be fully vetted, FIV/FeLV combo tested, current on all shots, microchipped and spayed/neutered BEFORE heading off to their new home.<br/><br/>BE PATIENT PLEASE: Dave and Sue have many applications that they review every day (on top of care for all the fosters cats and kittens) and the process can take time. Please be patient with us.<br/><br/>Please remember that we work on a first come/best fit basis so the sooner you get your application back the better your chances are that you will have a new love in your life.<br/><br/>P.S.: Our ACO is not involved with any of the cat/kitten placement procedures so please do not contact her for assistance. You will simply be sent back to us. Thank you!!! ~ Carol
