Shelby's Story

To say that Shelby has had a rough road is putting it lightly. She came to us in April of 2024 after her owner passed away. Instead of being cared for, she was let outside, and that's how she ended up with us. Since then, she's been at the rescue, tried life at PetSmart, and has gone through three foster homes. Not because she was doing anything wrong in any of these places, but because she just needed somewhere calm to really settle in. What Shelby truly needs now is to land somewhere for GOOD—a quiet, loving home she can finally call her forever. She is a gentle, mellow girl who spends her days soaking up R&R and kneading more biscuits than any baker in Pittsburgh. While she may be a bit timid at first, once she settles in, she blossoms. She will play with wand toys, chirp for attention, and curl-up beside you just to be near. Shelby hasn't been around other animals much because it stresses her out and she over-grooms herself, so a calm, peaceful home would suit her best. Somewhere she can open up on her own terms and finally feel safe, stable, and loved.

Fur All Kittys's Adoption Policy

Adopting a pet is more than just bringing home an animal. When you adopt, you add another member to your family. You take on another mouth to feed, another living thing to look after and care for, another responsibility. We just want to make sure that everyone in the home is prepared for this process. When you adopt from us, we will ensure that the initial care for the animal has been provided, with some exceptions. We will make the transition to your home as easy as possible. Follow up care, however, will be entirely your responsibility. Adoption fees vary, but you will be quoted an exact price prior to finalizing any decisions. The fee can vary just due to costs of spay/neuter and any medical care in addition to the basic care that is provided prior to adopting. You can pay through PayPal, Venmo, Square (fees added), or with cash. You may be required to pay a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit to ensure a home for the animal.
