Tango's Story

Tango is a diamond in the rough looking for a very special human. Having started life as a "spicy" street teen with his sister Toffee, Tango has come a long way, but he hasn't forgotten that the world can be a big, scary place.<br/><br/>Tango isn't a "love at first sight" kind of guy. He will need a patient adopter who understands that his initial hisses are just him trying to act brave while he settles in. Once he feels safe in his "home base" (a kennel or a quiet room), he quickly transforms into a purr-machine who lives for head scratches and long brushing sessions.<br/><br/>Why he’s worth the wait:<br/><br/>- His thick, plush coat is incredibly soft. Once you’re in his "inner circle," he’ll let you brush him to your heart's content.<br/><br/>- Once he trusts you, he finds his voice! Tango will chirp and meow to let you know he’s ready for snacks or attention.<br/><br/>- Tango has a hilarious love-hate relationship with boxes. He loves the security of sitting in them, but he also loves "remodeling" them by shredding the edges.<br/><br/>Ideal Home:<br/>Tango needs a low-traffic, patient household that will give him the time and space he needs to bloom. He can go home with his sister Toffee (who shares his "reformed spicy" past) or as a solo boy, provided his humans are ready to earn his lifelong loyalty.<br/><br/>Note from Foster Mom: Watching Tango go from a scared hiss-box to a vocal, fluffy friend has been so rewarding. He just needs someone who won't rush him!<br/><br/>DOB: 8/7/25<br/><br/>All cats are altered, microchipped, dewormed and given age appropriate vaccinations. <br/><br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: We do not have a physical shelter, therefore all our cats reside in foster homes. We do require a completed application prior to setting up a Meet & Greet in a foster home. Complete an application today! https://www.urbancats.org/adopt<br/><br/>Si necesitas ayuda en Español, por favor contáctenos a info@urbancats.org.<br/><br/>If cats are listed, consider them available. Please do not email or call us asking if they are still available. Visit our website www.urbancats.org/process for additional information about our organization, adoption policies and adoption fees.

Urban Cat Coalition's Adoption Policy
Adoption Process We are a best match rescue. Our goal is to match the individual pet to where we feel they would be most successful. It is not necessarily first-come, first-served for approved applications. After selecting a cat or kitten you are interested, or if you intend to adopt a cat chosen by our match makers, an application is filled out. Application: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/UCC/Cat The Urban Cat Coalition adoption team will perform background checks, veterinarian reference checks and landlord checks. Once the application review process is complete, you will be contacted by one of our match makers and then you will be put in touch with the foster home to arrange a meet and greet (virtual or in-person) with the kitty you want to adopt. Once you have met the kitty, you and the foster home will decide if it is a good fit. After this step, we have a 24 hour hold to allow you time to be sure adopting is the right decision. The foster family will stay in touch, and they will arrange the final adoption, provide a contract to sign and they will give you the physical copies of the cats medical records. Once they return the contract to our admin, we will email you digital copies of all medical records and register the microchip to you. Please note applicants must be at least 21 years of age to be eligible for adopting a cat from Urban Cat Coalition. Adoption fees: • Kittens (Under 7 months) $165 or $305 for two kittens. • Adults (7 months and over) $85 Services included in the adoption fees: - FVRCP Vaccines (appropriate for age of kitten/cat) - Rabies Booster if over 5 months old (Good for 1 year from date given) - Preventative Dewormer - Checked for fleas and ticks - Spay/Neuter - Microchip with lifetime membership
