Dude's Story

Dude is a hilarious 18-year-old kitty with a heart full of love. He came to us after being surrendered to a vet for euthanasia, but thanks to that vet's compassion, Dude was given a second chance and he has been thriving in his foster home ever since.<br/><br/>This handsome senior is wonderfully sweet and shockingly playful considering his age! He loves watching birds out the window, playing with strings, and taking long naps. Dude is looking for a quiet home where he can relax and be doted on in his final years. If you are ready to open your heart to a grateful, gentle soul, Dude would love to meet you. <br/><br/>Dude is neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, FIV/FELV negative, and fecal negative. He is being fostered in Highland Park and ready for immediate adoption. His adoption fee is $100

Artemis Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
ADOPTION PROCESS If you're interested in adopting, please complete our Adoption Interest Form when submitting your inquiry. Once we receive your application, we'll contact you to schedule a visit to meet the cat(s) at our rescue. KITTEN ADOPTION POLICY Kittens under 10 months of age must be adopted with another kitten or young cat, or go to a home that already has a playful, feline companion. We do NOT adopt out single kittens unless there is another active cat already in the home. Cats 10 months and older may be adopted as solo pets, depending on their individual personality and needs. If you're looking to adopt just one cat and don't currently have another feline at home, we encourage you to inquire about our older kittens or adult cats who are happy as the only cat in the household. FINALIZING THE ADOPTION Once you've chosen your new family member(s), you'll complete an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. If you have any questions, please email us at info@artemisanimalrescue.com. We look forward to helping you find your perfect feline companion!
