Sam23's Story

DOB 2/18/22 - Sam is a sweet boy who loves to be pet and purrs easily. When we first got Sam in 2023, he had some issues with aggression, but after getting neutered and spending an extended time in foster care, Sam is doing really well. He loves to be held and pet by volunteers at the shelter. Sam is playful with a wand toy, laser or sparkle ball when he's in the mood for play. He does very well with other cats. Sam would like a quiet home with another friendly cat for company. He doesn't like to wrestle, so would prefer a companion that doesn't tackle him.<br/>Sam needs a home with an experienced cat owner who is willing to give him time to warm up to the home slowly and is comfortable giving him time to himself if he needs space or is feeling stressed.<br/>Sam is on CD prescription urinary food. He has had past urinary blockages and PU surgery (perineal urethrostomy). It's unlikely he will block again but he needs to eat only the urinary food.

Second Hand Purrs's Adoption Policy

Our cats and kittens are $100 for one and $160 for two cats. (Cash only at the time of pickup) Adopters must be at least 21 years of age. All of our cats have been tested for FIV (Feline AIDS) and FeLV (Feline Leukemia), and have had their stool tested for the existence of parasites (although we cannot guarantee there are absolutely no parasites since they may not be shedding at the time of testing). We keep the cats and kittens up to date with any boosters they may need. We spay or neuter all cats and kittens over 6 months of age and they receive their first rabies booster at that time as well. You would need to come in, pick out who you would like to adopt, and fill out an application form. We then call your vet for their records on your animal(s) and do a courtesy background check to make sure there are no serious issues. Once you have been approved by the board, one of the volunteers will contact you. Our shelter is open on Thursdays 6pm to 9pm and on Saturdays 10am to 3pm. All adoptions must be in the State of Wisconsin.
