Martha's Story

(français ci-dessous)<br/><br/>Meet Martha, a very friendly dilute tortoiseshell that was brought to our shelter along with her sisters Melinda and MissyAnne (also available for adoption) by someone who was no longer able to care for them. They are around 7 months old. All three of these kittens are healthy, affectionate and very sweet. They love to give head butts and kisses, and can be picked up even though have just arrived at the shelter. Any of them would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a gentle, friendly young cat. We’d like these kittens to go to a home where they’ll be indoor-only cats since that’s the only environment they know. Since they’re so young, we believe they’ll adapt easily to a home with other cats and a friendly dog.<br/><br/>Martha will be taken to the vet to be vaccinated and spayed soon and will be ready to go to her forever home mid-May.<br/><br/>If you’re interested in adopting this friendly young cat, please contact our cat adoption coordinator, Linda, at 819-868-2684 or email her at peacocklinda@rocketmail.com. <br/><br/>Would you like to help us care for Martha instead? If so, click the "Become a Sponsor" button to the right of her photos. That will take you to a page where you can donate any amount you like to help with Martha’s care. 100% of the amount you donate will go to the shelter and we will be notified that you would like your donation to be used for Martha. <br/><br/>***************<br/><br/>Voici Martha, une chatte écaille de tortue diluée très sociable qui a été amenée à notre refuge avec ses sœurs Melinda et MissyAnne (également disponibles à l'adoption) par une personne qui ne pouvait plus s'en occuper. Elles ont environ 7 mois. Ces trois chatonnes sont en bonne santé, affectueuse et très gentils. Elles adorent donner des petits coups de tête et des bisous, et on peut déjà les prendre dans les bras bien qu'elles viennent tout juste d'arriver au refuge. N'importe laquelle d'entre elles ferait une merveilleuse compagne pour quelqu'un à la recherche d'une jeune chatte douce et amicale. Nous aimerions que ces chatonnes trouvent un foyer où elles vivront exclusivement à l'intérieur, car c'est le seul environnement qu'elles connaissent. Comme elles sont très jeunes, nous pensons qu'elles s'adapteront facilement à un foyer avec d'autres chats et un chien amical.<br/><br/>Martha sera bientôt emmenée chez le vétérinaire pour être vaccinée et stérilisée, et sera prête à rejoindre son foyer définitif à la mi-mai.<br/><br/>Si vous souhaitez adopter cette petite chatte adorable, veuillez communiquer avec notre coordinatrice des adoptions de chats, Linda, au 819-868-2684 ou par courriel à peacocklinda@rocketmail.com. <br/><br/>Souhaitez-vous plutôt nous aider à prendre soin de Martha? Si oui, cliquez sur le bouton « Become a Sponsor » à droite de ses photos. Vous serez redirigé vers une page (en anglais) où vous pourrez faire un don du montant de votre choix pour aider à prendre soin de Martha. La totalité du montant de votre don sera reversée au refuge et nous serons informés que vous souhaitez que votre don soit utilisé pour Martha.

Frontier Animal Society's Adoption Policy
CATS When placing a cat into an adoptive home, our primary goal is to ensure that the adopter is the right match for that particular cat.  It is very traumatic for both the cat and the adopting family if the cat has to return to the shelter. We also want to be sure that the adopter is ready for this responsibility and commitment. We feel it is already very positive that you are choosing to adopt rather than buy a cat from a pet store (which is more often than not from a kitten mill). Our Procedure for Adopting a Cat The adoption/inquiry process starts by either sending us an email or by contacting our adoption coordinator directly by phone. During the initial contact we can answer your questions, and we will have some of our own as well, such as what type of home you can provide and what kind of cat you are looking for--energy level, types of activities you do, length of time the cat would be alone during a typical day, other animals in the house, children and age of children, male/female preference, and any other of your important criteria for choosing a specific cat. Some of our potential adopters are interested in meeting a particular cat while others prefer to come to the shelter to meet a few of our adoptable cats and choose among them. Either way, prior to your visit, you may want to have a conversation with our adoption coordinator and then make an appointment to visit the cat(s). We also offer an Open House every Saturday and Sunday morning from 10 to 12 when people can drop by the shelter and meet some of our cats. We like to talk to each potential adopter because we know our cats, and through conversation we can get a feel as to whether or not the cat you are interested in will be a match. If you aren't sure what type of cat is best suited to your lifestyle, we can often help narrow it down. Our preference is that all family members attend the adoption visit and if younger children live in the home, they should be present as well. DOGS When placing a dog into an adoptive home, our primary goal is to ensure that the adopter is the right match for that particular dog. It is very traumatic for both the dog and the adopting family if the dog has to return to the shelter. We also want to be sure that the adopter is ready for this responsibility and commitment. Depending on the dog's age at the time of adoption, dogs are a 10-15 year commitment. We feel it is already very positive that you are choosing to adopt rather than buy a dog from a pet store (which is more often than not from puppy mills) or from a breeder ! Our Procedure for Adopting a Dog The adoption/inquiry process starts by either sending us an email or by contacting our adoption coordinator directly by phone. During the initial contact we can answer your questions, and we will have some of our own as well, such as what type of home you can provide and what kind of dog you are looking for--energy level, types of activities you do, length of time dog would be alone during a typical day, other animals in the house, children and age of children, male/female preference, and any other of your important criteria for choosing a specific dog. Some of our potential adopters are interested in meeting a particular dog while others prefer to come to the shelter to meet a few of our adoptable dogs. Either way, prior to your visit, you'll want to first have a conversation with our adoption coordinator and then make an appointment to visit the dog(s). We like to talk to each potential adopter because we know our dogs, and through conversation we can get a feel as to whether or not the dog you are interested in will be a match. If you aren't sure yourself about which dog is best suited to your lifestyle, we can often help narrow it down. Following the phone conversation(s), we will arrange a visit to our shelter so you can meet the dog(s). You will have an opportunity to take the dog(s) for a walk and interact with them in our fenced-in dog park. If you already have a dog, we will ask that you bring him or her with you. Our preference is that all family members should attend the adoption visit and if younger children live in the home, they should be present as well. First Visit Adoptions We try to discourage first visit adoptions, because adoptions should not be an impulsive or emotional decision. It must be a well thought out, rational decision. You also need to prepare your home for the new pet. If a first visit adoption is anticipated (for example adopters living a distance away from the shelter), then reference checks must be made beforehand. Home checks are scheduled on a case by case basis.
