Proton's Story

Meet Proton!<br/>Sex: Neutered male<br/>Breed: DSH<br/>Color: Black and white<br/>Estimated DOB: 12/16/23<br/><br/>A woman had passed away unexpectedly, and her family was unsure of what to do with her cats, so we offered to take in these shy boys. So far, they seem very healthy and there are no signs of URI.<br/><br/>Proton is still very shy, but he loves to play with his brother, Electron. We think they may be bonded and are offering a special for them to be adopted together. We would offer $175 total.<br/><br/>They're both highly food motivated, and love both wet and dry food. They do great with other cats, but we don't know how they'd be with dogs. We believe a calm dog and slow introductions would be best. Children would have to have good boundaries and understand that they cannot hold him.<br/><br/>Proton has had all age appropriate vaccinations, has been dewormed with a general dewormer, has been neutered, microchipped, received monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and tested negative for FeLV virus.<br/><br/>We do recommend rechecking a fecal within 48 hours after you take any cat home, covered by us. If he is positive for any parasites, we will get you a dewormer recommended by your vet at no extra cost.<br/><br/>Adoption fee is $175. We take check, card, and cash.<br/><br/>You will receive a copy of the microchip form when you bring him home, and we will register it for you! In the first week, we would like to check the account to make sure we did not make any errors. After that, it will be your responsibility to keep the information accurate and up to date. This is a lifelong enrollment, and you will not have to pay towards it again. The microchip sits under the skin, between the shoulder blades. Your username will be your email address, so you will be required to have one. Once you logon to petlink.net, you can change the password to whatever you would like.<br/><br/>You will also receive a copy of your adoption contract, signed by you and a Pawsitive Cause board member. This contract will go over that our cats are seen by a veterinarian, have received vet care, and had their hearts listened to, but we cannot guarantee the health of any animal.<br/><br/>You will also receive a hand out about Upper Respiratory Infection in cats, as many animals in rescues and shelters have been previously exposed to this illness. Even if they are not showing signs of URI, the change or stress of going home can bring those symptoms on, which is why we send you home with the hand out.<br/><br/>We will go over a checklist to make sure that we did not miss anything. You will receive a copy of this as well. We have asked our fosters to bring some food for you to take home to transition on to what you would like them to eat. We have always offered both wet and dry food.<br/><br/>Proton is using litter boxes great. However, we recommend starting him out in a room with a litter box, and open more and more of the house at a time. Do not move the litter box a lot! This also helps with introductions to other animals. You should always do slow introductions under a door with a few days of no sight. Once all of the animals are calm and used to the new noises and smells, you can start offering treats at the door to both animals, then open the door and start letting them slowly mingle.<br/><br/>Lastly, you will receive a paper copy or email copy of all medical records we have on file. We would love it if you continued your vet care with us at Pawsitive Care, but we understand if you have a vet you love! We will try to make this transition as easy as possible.<br/><br/>If you think Proton would complete your family, please email us at PawsitiveCauseMI@gmail.com<br/><br/>Pawsitive Cause Non-Profit Animal Rescue<br/>611 N Saginaw St<br/>Holly, MI 48442<br/>PawsitiveCauseMI@gmail.com<br/>Fax: (248) 587-7622<br/><br/>Pawsitive Cause in a non-profit, no-kill, foster based animal rescue located in Holly, MI. Our animals are placed with fosters, where they are treated like part of the family until they find their furever homes.<br/>Our adoption process requires an application to be completed, which you can find on our Facebook page, and then a "meet and greet" is to take place. Our animals are adopted out to the first perfect fit. Adoption fees are necessary to help cover medical costs for our rescue animals.
