Samson & Goliath's Story

Sampson & Goliath: The Twin Titans of Play<br/>If youre seeing double, dont call your eye doctoryouve just met Sampson and Goliath. These two brothers are basically carbon copies of each other, and they have one setting: Maximum Effort.<br/><br/>The Scouting Report<br/>The Look: Identical twins. Good luck telling them apart without a spreadsheet or a very specific collar system.<br/><br/>The Energy: They spend 90% of their day wrestling, 5% eating, and 5% recharging their batteries for the next wrestling match.<br/><br/>The Social Circle: These boys are the life of the party. They love other cats and are officially the "welcome committee" for any feline roommate.<br/><br/>The Terms & Conditions<br/>The Bond: They are a strictly bonded pair. Separating them would be like taking the "PB" away from the "J"its just not allowed.<br/><br/>The Requirement: Must have a home with plenty of floor space for high-speed chases and enough laps to accommodate two heavy-duty purr machines.<br/><br/>Warning: Adopting these two may result in "Double Trouble," but it also guarantees double the head-butts and half the loneliness for your current cats.<br/><br/>Sampson and Goliath are ready to bring their legendary brotherhood to your living room. Why settle for one legend when you can have the whole set?<br/><br/><br/>Are you tired of filling out the long applications? Did no one get back to you? If they did, was the cat was already adopted? <br/><br/> Email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit.<br/><br/> We do things the way we want to here at Save Our Strays. We are very prompt with responding and appointments. You do not have to wait for your application to go through to come and visit. We have a contract you sign, upon adoption.<br/> Since 2020, SOS has rescued and adopted more than 1,500 stray cats in the Pittsburgh area. Included in our adoption fee is full vetting. <br/><br/>All of our cats are fixed, dewormed, have received Capstar for any flea issues and NEXGUARD COMBO for any parasites, received two FVRCP vaccines as well as their rabies vaccine (3lbs +), are treated for ear mites (if needed), are combo tested for FeLV and FIV(negative), and are microchipped- which will transfer to you. <br/><br/>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/> I will tell you all my same spiel I tell everyone else, if you adopt from us. Do not declaw your cat, if the cat is sick- have enough money to take them to the vet. If you ever need me, call me. We talk to you and ask questions ourselves and we know the cats well. If we think it is not going to work out, we will let you know. Everyone who is able and willing, deserves the companionship of a cat. It's an art that we have purfected here! Most of the cats are in the shelter, all in one place. <br/><br/>We take you around to the different rooms and then you & yours can go and visit where you want too. Seems simple right? Well, it is! Bring your own carrier just encase you do pick a new BFF. All you have to do is schedule an appointment. <br/><br/> During your visit, feel free to spend time with the cat you want to meet, but also take a look around. We always have cats with a wide variety of ages, coat patterns/lengths, and personalities. High energy antics? You bet. Couch potatoes? Check. Sweet, purring snugglers? Roger that. And please dont overlook the shy wallflower who keeps glancing your wayintroverts need love too. Often times, a cat is simply overwhelmed with their new rescue<br/>environment and will blossom in a calmer home environment. <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, youre doing more than giving a cat a good home. Youre also helping those stray cats who cannot be homed. One cats adoption improves multiple cats lives.<br/><br/> <br/> Email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit.<br/><br/> Your new best friend is waiting for you

Save Our Strays, Inc's Adoption Policy
Please give your new pet TIME. It can take up to 3 weeks for even the most social cat to get used to their new home. Have one room set up for your new kitty, with limited spaces to hide. You can add a cardboard box and a blanket, for a guaranteed go to spot. DO NOT free feed your kitty. Feed 3 small meals (or two) a day and you bring in the food to them. Most cats LOVE canned cat food. So maybe half a canned and some quality dry food, is an good meal. Followed by some play time before or after, makes the new one very happy. You can add lysine powder or Forta Flora for additional nutrients. DO NOT DECLAW YOUR CAT. There are nail caps you can put on them(or have a vet do so) that work really well. They do not like them, but will get used to them. So use this as a last resort. Cats like to climb. Make sure you have enough “things” to entertain them. Take your cat to the vet at least once per year for checkups and vaccines. If your cat seems sick, injured, or is displaying behavioral issues- seek veterinary care IMMEDIATELY. Animal Friends has wellness appointments for $50 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 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 will stimulate and entertain them while also helping to prevent unwanted behaviors. Never attempt to punish a cat. They will only learn to be fearful of you. Instead- redirect their attention with toys and play.
