Roomba's Story

Meet Rooba, a cute short-haired orange tabby male about 10 weeks old (DOB about 4/20/26). This little survivor has quite a story. Taken from his mom far too early at just 4 weeks old, he missed out on learning many of the social skills and manners that mother cats usually teach. He also endured abuse during his early weeks, but despite that rough start, he's made an incredible recovery and is full of life. He approaches life with absolute confidence, seemingly unaware that he weighs only a few pounds. Fear isn't in his vocabulary, and he'll happily charge into any adventure, toy, or wrestling match he can find. This spirited little guy will thrive with a patient adopter who understands that his lack of kitten manners isn't stubbornness it's simply something he never had the chance to learn. With guidance, enrichment, and plenty of appropriate play, he's sure to keep everyone entertained with his bold personality, endless energy, and resilient spirit.<br/>Roomba will need a home that isn't loud, without lots of commotion, and no small children. He would do best with an older furry friend to help with learning boundaries and that will let him know when playtime is over.<br/>If you're looking for a kitten with a big heart, an even bigger personality, and a remarkable comeback story, Roomba might be your perfect match. Roomba is negative for feline leukemia and aids, had his first distemper vaccine, been wormed, treated for fleas, and been vet checked and neutered. Additional vaccines included in the adoption fee. Preference will be given to local adopters who have a young playmate/companion for the kitten or are willing to adopt a pair. We do not adopt kittens to homes where they will be a solo pet. If interested in this cutie pie, please contact Holly at 865-671-4564 (land line) or hhfrey1@tds.net

The Stray Connection's Adoption Policy
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT STRAY CONNECTION! We are a small, private feline-only rescue group dedicated to the rescue, care and placement of homeless cats and kittens. The majority of our cats and kittens come from high kill shelters. Through our application and interview process, we strive to make the "purrfect" match to insure a loving, lifelong home for those in our care. We do NOT receive funding from any national organization, federal or state governments. We do NOT adopt to individuals under 21 years old. PUTTING GOOD CATS IN GOOD HOMES IS OUR MISSION. The primary goal of Stray Connection is to make the best possible match for each cat adopted to ensure both the cat and adoptive family are happy and committed to a long term relationship. For that reason, we do not necessarily accept the first application for any given cat, but the one we feel is the best home for that pet. When selecting the adoptive family, we take many things into consideration, including the cat’s personality and behavior typical of their age. For example, adult cats may be more confident and do well as single pets, while young kittens can become bored and lonely in single pet homes. Bored, lonely kittens can become destructive, and ultimately unhappy adult cats. For this reason we will usually require kittens to be adopted in pairs, or into a home where we feel there is enough continual stimulation to prevent boredom (e.g. having another appropriately aged pet for a buddy). We give preference to local adopters (typically considered to be within an hours drive of Knoxville). MEETING OUR CATS – Because we work on a foster home basis (the cats live in someone’s home), we do not set up meet and greet appts until we have an approved application on file. There is no fee to apply. Completing an application does not guarantee approval on our part. Your application is good for consideration of any cat in the Stray Connection. ADOPTION PROCESS – WE DO NOT DO SAME DAY ADOPTIONS. Potential adopters are required to complete an application, and information will be verified as quickly as possible. You may request an application by emailing hhfrey1@tds.net. At the time of adoption, adopters must sign a contract indicating their willingness to obtain all remaining vaccinations, treatments, and spay or neuter. If a placement doesn't work out (e.g., a family member discovers he/she is allergic), the animal is returned to the Stray Connection and re-adopted. We prefer to adopt to local adopters, which we define as within a 1.5-hour radius of Knoxville. The Stray Connection will consider adoption if the adopter is a very good match for the cat (and therefore unlikely to return) and is willing to pick up in Knoxville. WE DO NOT ADOPT KITTENS TO HOMES WHERE THEY WILL NOT HAVE A YOUNG-ISH FELINE OR CANINE COMPANION. ADOPTION FEE – Our fee varies based on the age and breed of the cat. All fees include testing for feline leukemia and aids, the series of distemper vaccines, the rabies vaccines, wormings, advantage so they are flea free when you take them home, a veterinary exam, and the spay or neuter. Microchipping is available for an additional $30. The adoption fee is waived for qualifying adopters interested in one of our sponsored cats. Bonded cats may be offered at a discount if adopted as a pair. DONATIONS AND/OR VOLUNTEERING – Stray Connection pays for all vet care for cats and kittens in foster care, which can often exceed the adoption fee. Donations to cover these costs are greatly appreciated. We also rely on volunteers for our operation – from volunteers who can staff adoption fairs and transport cats/cages to individuals willing to open their home for foster care. If you are interested in making a donation or volunteering in any way, please email hhfrey1@tds.net For more information, email hhfrey1@tds.net or call 865.671.4564 (land line, does not accept texts)
