Margo *Working Cat*'s Story

2-year-old Margo came to Hero Rescue with newborn babies, fresh off the winter streets. She was an incredible mom - protective, devoted, and determined to keep her kittens safe. While she's gained confidence in our care, Margo has made one thing clear: humans are not her besties. She prefers to observe from afar and live life on her own terms.<br/><br/>What she does love? Other cats. She absolutely thrives around feline friends and would do wonderfully in an environment where she can coexist with fellow mousers.<br/><br/>Margo is looking for placement through our Working Cat Program - perfect for independent cats who aren't suited for a traditional indoor home but still have so much to offer. In exchange for daily food, fresh water, and safe shelter, Margo will provide non-toxic pest control for spaces like:<br/><br/> Garages<br/> Barns or sheds<br/> Farms<br/> Warehouses or factories<br/> Offices or retail spaces<br/> Auto shops or dealerships<br/> Stables or equestrian centers<br/> Greenhouses, nurseries, flower shops<br/> Vineyards, wineries, distilleries<br/> Salvage or scrap yards<br/><br/>She doesn't want cuddles - she wants a job. And she'll take it seriously.<br/><br/> Adoption fee waived <br/><br/>If you have a space that could use a little pest patrol and you respect a cat who values her independence, Margo is ready to clock in.<br/><br/>Apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Cat<br/><br/>-------------------------------------<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEES<br/><br/>Altered kitten* - $150<br/>Pair of altered kittens - $220<br/>Cat 6 months or older - $75<br/>Senior cats 8 years or older- $50<br/><br/>Adoption fees cover the cost of care and veterinary services.<br/><br/>*We do not adopt out single kittens under 6 months to homes without other pets due to single cat syndrome.
