Fiona's Story

Simi and Fiona are brother and sister and they are bonded to each other. It would be wonderful if they could be adopted together, but they can be separated if need be. I think both of them would do best in homes without young kids or dogs. Before they came to me, they were community cats living on a very busy street in a commercial district. With the constant traffic, and them crossing the street all the time, their caretaker and I agreed it was only a matter of time before one of them got hit. They clearly had some human interaction before and they adjusted well to indoor life. Both made great progress bonding with me, and they were becoming more comfortable and adventurous with every day. Now that their world has completely changed again, they will likely need extra time to adjust and decompress. If they could spend some time together in foster before they go to the shelter, that would be ideal. Fiona is the more outgoing of the two, and the brave one. She was shy at first but made excellent and quick progress with me. It may take her a little time to warm up to strangers. She is very inquisitive, affectionate and playful, with a cheerful and sometimes silly personality. She didn't particularly care for my foster kittens, but she loves her brother. She loves wand toys and churus. Simi is such a gorgeous boy with his stunning blue eyes, I assume he will get a lot of interest based on looks alone. He has a very gentle and sweet demeanor. However, he is very timid and shy, and meeting new people can be quite scary for him. He needs a slow, quiet approach to feel safe. Simi came such a long way in the time he spent with me, and he showed me what a sweet and loving boy he truly is. Once I gained his trust, he was greeting me with meows when I came into the room, giving little kisses and rolling over for belly rubs. I have no doubt he will be a devoted companion for the right person, and he may even end up being a lap cat. His ideal adopter would be someone who understands that he will need time to get to know them and build trust before he feels safe and comfortable enough to come out of his shell. He needs someone with patience and a gentle touch. Simi is crazy about churus, this is a great way to bond with him. He loves to be petted and combed, especially under his chin and behind the ears. He had started becoming more interested in toys in the last two weeks asAs always before adoption, all cats are spay/neutered, tested for FeLV/FIV, given distemper and rabies vaccines if old enough, flea and dewormer treatments if necessary.

The Pat Brody Shelter for Cats's Adoption Policy

Standard Adoption Policies You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt from us and must have your landlord’s permission if you are living in an apartment. We may request a written letter of consent from your landlord. Donation prices for our cats range from $250.00 - $400.00 depending on the age, health, breed and disposition of the cat. Special breeds and exotics can be a little mor. We are only able to accept cash or checks at this time. Prior to adoption, all of our cats and kittens have been vet checked, micro-chipped, had rabies and distemper shots, been tested for FeLV/FIV, treated for ear mites and fleas, de-wormed, spayed or neutered, and given any other necessary medical care. (The only exception is that some kittens are not yet old enough to have their rabies shot.) We reserve the right to refuse to adopt a cat to anyone we feel would not provide a good home. If you have other pets in your household, they must be up-to-date on vaccinations before you adopt a new kitty from us. We require that each adoptive person sign a contract that they will NOT surgically declaw any cat adopted from us. We would be happy to adopt to you a cat that came to us already declawed. Kittens under the age of 4-5 months MUST be adopted in pairs, unless you already have a young cat at home. We have seen that kittens do much better developmentally and socially when they have a playmate to interact and grow with. This is a general guideline, and some kittens 4 months and older must still be adopted in pairs if they are bonded to other cats. The youngest kittens we will ever adopt out are 8 weeks old. Kittens younger than this are infants and still rely on their mother for many things.
