Papaya's Story

Meet Papaya! Papaya came to us as a 3 day old kitten with her 5 siblings & mama. They were from a farm colony & mama was friendly & smart enough to seek help from the farmers. She made them a home in a barn & was found from there. She is a curious & silly kitten. She can be a little skittish when you first approach her because she doesn't seem to ever know what is going on. Once her brain cell aligns she is very affectionate. She is playful & curious & a lot of fun. Papaya is in a home with other cats, a large dog & young children; she does very well with all of them! She is also around 6 months old, spayed, & vaccinated. To make Papaya a part of your family, please fill out an application here: appalachianpeacepaws.org/adopt

Appalachian Peace Paws Rescue's Adoption Policy

Adopters fill out a simple digital application that includes a home check, two references, landlord verification, and vet references. A volunteer makes sure the applicant can have animals where they live, that all household members are in agreement, that references feel they are ready for a pet, that they can take financial responsibility for a new pet, and that they have properly cared for pets they've had in the past. Once this is done an in person or virtual home check is done and the successful applicant is asked to make a donation (required amounts vary by species) to help offset our costs and the applicant can arrange to take their new family member home.
