Tom Domestic Short Hair Fredericksburg, VA

Meet Tom! Tom was rescued while working on a TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) project. I am a sweet, high energy boy that loves to wrestle and play with my brother Jerry (check out his profile on Petfinder too!) I would like to be placed in a forever home with another feline friend who appreciates my zest for playtime or if possible with by brother Jerry. I have not been introduced to children and would do best with older children. I also have not be around dogs but I am sure with proper intros and patience I would do fine. There are many benefits to adopting 2 kittens instead of one. They provide a lot of entertainment and stay out of trouble having a playmate to explore with and by adopting 2 your are saving more lives!

Ask about our Foster-To-Adopt Program! Kittens that are @ 8 weeks old can be placed into approved forever homes in a foster-to-adopt situation prior to adoption. To begin the process simply submit an adoption application located on our web page at operationhood.org. Once we receive your application our Adoption Coordinator will contact you!

Adoption Fee's:
Under 6 months – $150.00
6 months to 1 year – $100.00
Over 1 year – $75.00

The Foster-to Adopt program is in place for two primary reasons:

1.) To monitor the dynamics with other pets and make sure the addition to the family is a positive experience prior to the commitment to adopt.

2.) To allow the kitten(s) to be in and become comfortable with its’ forever home in cases where the animal is too young to be spayed or neutered. Once the kitten is of age and ready to be spayed/neutered we will arrange the appointment for you to take them in. There is not place like home to get lots of TLC and recovery is less stressful where you feel comfortable!

Please keep in mind the commitment when adopting kitten(s) as the the typical lifespan ranges somewhere between 13 and 17 years, according to the ASPCA. However, it isn't uncommon for indoor cats to live to at least 20+ years.

All cats adopted through Operation Hood have been or will be (depending on age) spayed/neutered, micro-chipped, and receive FeLV/FIV tests, rabies vaccination, de-wormer, and flea & tick treatment.
