Orion is from Waterloo, Iowa. He is now up to date on shots and tested negative for FeLV / FIV. He is also neutered now. He is living in a foster home.

Orion... Black and White Domestic Shorthair neutered male; approx. 4 years old as of October 2018.

Orion is a very friendly, sweet and loving boy. He was previously in a home where he was bullied by another cat. When he came into his foster home in May of 2017, he was very scared, traumatized and wary of other cats. He has improved so much since coming into his foster home. He has warmed up to all of the cats in his foster home. He loves to seek out his foster mom for petting and attention. He is very sweet and loving in our interactions. Orion needs to be adopted into a home with cats that are gentle and kind. He would also do well as an only cat. He would also do well with kind older children. He needs to be adopted into a calm and quiet home. Orion is going to be shy and scared at first in a new home and around new people and animals. He is going to need plenty of time to warm up to his new surroundings. He will need to be placed in a small room all by himself and integrated over a period of weeks. It is also very important that you understand his sensitivity and be patient with him. In the home he was rescued from he felt ignored and that his needs and feelings didn’t matter. If you give him the chance to adjust to your home, he is the most loving cat.

Orion's adoption fee is $95.00. He was neutered, tested neg. for FeLK/FIV, and UTD on all vaccinations. He also got his teeth cleaned in the Spring of 2017.


WE ARE A NO-KILL 501-C-3 NON-PROFIT RESCUE. All donations are tax deductible. We do not have a shelter. All pets live in foster homes. We only adopt to indoor homes.

All animals see a vet for shots and normal exams. If they appear healthy and there are no obvious health concerns, then extensive testing is not done. This is normal procedure for pet rescues and shelters.
Waverly Pet Rescue puts a lot of money into medical care for each dog and cat we take in. $200 is the average cost for basic care. This does not include if the animal had an injury, required extra flea / ear mite treatments, or needed extra days at the vet office.
