Mallory's Story

Mallory: adorable black and white tuxedo, shy but coming out of her shell<br/><br/>Mallory's story: I was a teenage pregnancy mom, on the streets, living in a cardboard box in shed until one day the residents found us and contacted Fitchburg Friends of Felines for help. I thought I had a great hideout for me and the kids. Guess not.<br/><br/>I was scooped up with my babies, and the rest is ancient history.<br/><br/>I am now living the life in a sun filled room with tons of toys where I can play, eat, and nap all day! My kids are old enough to leave the nest, which a couple have, and I am also ready to start my new life as an indoor kitty!<br/><br/>I love to look out the window and sit in front of the AC vent! I'm also not a huge fan of beds, I prefer a hard surface to lay on as you can see by my photos! My favorite place to perch: top of the dresser away from the kids. Unfortunately they're getting old enough to climb up. I need a new hideout.<br/><br/>I don't tend to actually hide, I like to be part of the action from a distance. Even in a packed room, I tend to just keep to myself. <br/><br/>As far as humans, I am still learning to trust. I am a bit of a hisser but never aggressive. I'm starting to love the occasional head pets and chin scratches from my humans. I am taking a bit of time to get to know them, as I will you. I may not be a huge cuddler now, but luckily, I am adorable, anyways.<br/><br/>My foster family is very patient and in fact I'm coming up for pets now after only a month and a half. I feel like I'm making big progress considering I was a street cat fending for myself. Now I've got it made and I know it!<br/><br/>My ideal home would be with a family that is cat savvy and understands that I am going to take some time to warm up to you. I need toys and stuff to climb on, like a cat tree or furniture. <br/><br/>Fitchburg Friends of Felines facilitates a foster to adopt program that places the intended adoptee with the potential adoptive family.

Fitchburg Friends of Felines, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Potential adopters are required to have a solid character reference, vet reference, and a site visit which can be conducted virtually. Due to MA regulations, we cannot intake pets from out of state. We offer a foster to adopt program to guarantee the intended kitty is a good fit for your family. We also require that all adopters agree to return the kitty should the adopter no longer be able to care for him or her in the future, or an agreed to person is identified to continue care for this kitty. We are not a brick and mortar; all available cats are kept in foster homes. Therefore, we would need time to schedule a visit to meet a kitty. We are happy to travel to match the perfect kitty for your family. Our adoption fees are normally $250 per cat, $350 for specialty breeds or exotics, and $50 less per kitty if interested in multiples. For specific questions, or for an adoption application, please feel free to reach out to us directly: fitchburgfriendsoffelines@gmail.com or call our hotline: 978-222-3170
