Monroe (fka Oreo)'s Story

5 years old Personality: friendly, independent, shy, talkative Monroe is looking for a loving, patient forever person or family to make him feel safe and allow him to be his true, squeaky, loving self. Monroe is a sweet, handsome, loving boy with the most adorable little meow that he uses freely when he wants attention. He is a previous CDCK Rescue kitty who was adopted as a baby but then returned by his owner after five years. He has been somewhat nervous since his return to foster care, but he is slowly coming out of his shell and clearly craving love and security. Monroe likes his independence but also very much wants people around him. Once Monroe becomes comfortable with you, he will headbutt your hands and legs to get attention and love. He likes to have quiet places to nest when he needs some quiet time, but also likes to play with wand toys and chase around a ball from time to time. Monroe is on daily medication for anxiety, which needs to be managed properly, and is looking for the right person to make him feel safe, loved, and happy, and give him a true forever home. Monroe just needs a minute to get used to the situation, and then he will just want to be your friendly, loving, chatty sidekick.

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue's Adoption Policy

All of our dogs and cats are in private foster homes. If you are interested in meeting one, please complete our application. Profiles provide all current information we know about the dogs and cats in our care. OUR ADOPTION PROCESS APPLICATION: Interested adopters should fill out an application for the cat(s) or dog(s) you are interested in. Only one application is required, and it applies for all cats or dogs listed on your application. If you are interested in adopting both a cat and a dog, you must complete an application for each type of animal. Important Note Regarding Timing: We screen all applications to find what we believe will be the best environment for each particular cat or dog. If we believe that we currently have a potential match for you, our typical response time is within a week. Please keep an eye on your spam folder! APPLICATIONS COUNSELOR: Applicants who pass the initial screening will be assigned a volunteer applications counselor to work with you throughout the process. REFERENCE CHECKS: If applicable, CDCK will call the applicant’s veterinarian to ensure that previous pets have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and well cared for. CDCK will also call personal references listed on the application. RENTERS/CONDO OWNERS: For renters, CDCK will check with an applicant's landlord to ensure that cats and/or dogs are permitted and that the cat or dog of interest wouldn’t violate any size or breed restrictions. We also review condo association rules regarding pets. ADOPTION CONTRACT: If the applicant is approved for adoption and decides to adopt the cat or dog, CDCK and the prospective adopter will enter into an adoption contract. The applicant will be required to pay an adoption fee, which helps cover our costs from spay/neutering (if age appropriate), microchipping, vaccinations, and any other veterinary attention needed while in our care.
