PEDRO's Story

Meet Pedro, the three-year-old son of Queen Blanca and the guy who officially won the "Most Patient Cat in Verona" award. While his mom was running the show, Pedro was just sitting there, suitcase packed, waiting for his ride to a better life.<br/><br/><br/>The Background: Spent six years in a hoarding house, which is about six years too many. He was the one literally waiting by the door to be rescued.<br/><br/>The Personality: 100% "Happy to Be Here." He's friendly, incredibly grateful, and has a vibe that says, "I don't miss my old roommates at all."<br/><br/>Why Pedro is a Catch:<br/>Pedro is at the perfect age—he's past the "climbing your curtains" kitten phase but has plenty of energy for a good play session and a lot of love for a long nap. He's transitioned from "one of many" to "one in a million" and he is absolutely soaking up the one-on-one attention.<br/><br/>He's friendly, he's easygoing, and he's ready to trade his chaotic past for a quiet future with you.<br/><br/><br/> Have you filled out adoption applications, and no one has got back to you? Come visit the kitty hotel filled with six rooms over two spacious floors of super cute free roaming & friendly furballs of all ages, color and personality! Our outdoor cat e o is located on 2nd floor.<br/><br/> If you are interested in meeting any of the cats, please email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text (best option) Faon @ (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit. We will get back to you very promptly. The majority of our cats are in one place. Myself and the volunteers spend a lot of time with the cats so we know their personalities extremely well. <br/><br/> Do you happen to be looking for a Real Estate agent, one of our main volunteers works for Berkshire Hathaway. Chelsea donates 10% of her commission back to the rescue, if we help get her a listing. Check our Facebook Save Our Strays if you forget and later want her phone number. She is the "PURFECT Relator" Chelsea Dungan @ 412-297-1606. Help save cats while buying or selling a home. <br/><br/> Since 2020, SOS has rescued and adopted more than 1,500 stray cats in the Pittsburgh area. Included in our $225 (going rate/full vetting is expensive) adoption fee is full vetting. It will cost you more money to have everything we have already completed for them done. Adopting from us supports S.O.S and our mission to save cats from neglect, abandonment, hoarding or friendly strays stuck living outside. <br/><br/>All of our cats are spayed/neutered, dewormed, have received Capstar for any flea issues and NEXGUARD COMBO for any parasites, received two FVRCP vaccines as well as their rabies vaccine, are treated for ear mites (if needed), are combo tested for FeLV and FIV(beware large shelters no longer test) and are microchipped which will transfer to you. Once the adult cats are fully vetted and vaccinated, they freely roam across two floors and (Pittsburgh weather permitting...) also spend time in an outside Catio to soak up the sunshine.<br/> <br/><br/> <br/> SOS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our adoption fee, along with donations, allow us to tend to our rescued cats in the manner in which they deserve: fully vetted and fully cared for. We also allocate funds to continue TNR (trap, neuter, and release) efforts for all of the strays who are too unsocialized and human-adverse for an indoor home. By spaying/neutering, these<br/>cats live a healthier life and no longer contribute to increasing the stray cat population.<br/><br/> When you adopt a cat from SOS, you're doing more than giving a cat a good home. You're also helping those stray cats who cannot be homed. One cats adoption improves multiple cats' lives.<br/><br/> <br/><br/> Email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text Faon @ (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit.

Why Pedro is a Catch:
Pedro is at the perfect age—he's past the "climbing your curtains" kitten phase but has plenty of energy for a good play session and a lot of love for a long nap. He's transitioned from "one of many" to "one in a million" and he is absolutely soaking up the one-on-one attention.

He's friendly, he's easygoing, and he's ready to trade his chaotic past for a quiet future with you.

Save Our Strays, Inc's Adoption Policy
Always provide adequate food, water (at all times) and a clean litter box for your cat. Keep your cat inside. Cats that are allowed to roam outside can contract fleas or feline carried diseases. They can be seriously injured fighting with other cats, caught in a trap and get their ear tipped or worst of all be killed when hit by a car. Provide enrichment for your cat. Cats need to scratch, chase, hunt, hide, and play. Provide scratching posts, toys, boxes, play-time and other items designed for a cat that will stimulate and entertain them while also helping to prevent unwanted behaviors.
