Narissa's Story

Hello, my name is Narissa and I am a 5 year old calico/tortie from the streets of Detroit. It was a hard life and I was not doing well. Thankfully, I met a woman from Grand Rapids that scooped up my skin and bones and rescued me. I slept curled up in her lap as she drove the two hours home. I have spent the last few months gaining weight and remembering how to be a cat. Meowing for treats, leaning into chin scratches and curling up behind my human’s legs as they sleep. I am gentle and curious with other cats but am still quite nervous about new situations. I think I could do well with a calm and respectful dog in the house. Also, I prefer slightly older kids. I would love a quieter household with a human that will help me to continue to blossom, trust and enjoy life again. Medical: All cats are spayed/neutered, current on age appropriate vaccines (rabies and distemper), microchipped, given flea/tick prevention and de-wormer, FIV/FeLV tested, and any other veterinary care that is needed prior to adoption. If you are interested in adopting, fill out an application online at www.figandfriendspetrescue.org/adopt

Fig and Friends Pet Rescue's Adoption Policy

~We do not adopt to homes with animals who are not spayed or neutered unless there is a valid reason such as vet recommendation. ~We do check references including landlord if you rent and your vet both past and present. ~We do not adopt to homes that plan on declawing the cat we have adopted out to you or that plan on letting a cat outside (unless on a leash and harness under owner's continued observation). ~If we see something on your application that we are concerned about, we will always try and have a conversation with you to find out the why. We understand you might have declawed a cat in the past or had to rehome an animal. It can happen to anyone. We like to dig deeper and won't deny someone just based on surface information.
