Turnip's Story

Please see the contact email at the end of this post if you are interested in Turnip!<br/>Turnip is the perfect cat for someone that does not want a cat....<br/><br/>He was found living in the parking lot of a car dealership, just sitting under the cars.<br/>He got the attention of someone walking by because he was sitting there meowing. He also was seen doing the same thing by someone else that came to check it out. We still do not know why he was crying so much, but he was taken out of there since he seemed to be calling for help and it was really sad to see and hear. The manager said they had been seeing him for awhile there, but employees were not allowed to feed him.<br/>A rescuer/trapper went to check him out and he gobbled up any food put out. When a trap was put out he immediately went in it, almost as if to say "Get me out of here."<br/>Turnip was taken to the vet and checked out just fine, except for being thin. He is FIV+, but that does not mean much as far as his health and life ahead.<br/>Turnip loves to sit at the top of a cat tree, and he is tolerant of other cats and people. He just isn't driven to interact with either one! He does seem to enjoy some head rubs, but not for too long.<br/>Turnip needs a home where he can love and be loved from afar, at least at the beginning. He is very low maintenance, but so happy to not be sitting alone in a parking lot, hungry and lonely.<br/>If you are interested in learning more about Turnip, please email helping.kitties@yahoo.com.<br/><br/><br/><br/>I

Cat Tales Rescue's Adoption Policy
Cats are a 15 - 20 year commitment, so we work very hard to make sure that the cat or kitten you are interested in is a good match. We want you to have the right cat! All of our cats and kittens come with a life-time return guarantee.  They can be returned at any time and for any reason. We often recommend a two week trial just to be sure it is a good fit.  We've had people suggest that this is hard on cats.  It is!  But not as hard as being in the wrong home for a decade or more.   Re-homing adult cats can take months or longer, so it is our goal for all adoptions to be for the life of the cat. Cat Tales cats and kittens will have the following before adoption. Spay / Neuter surgery Screening for Feline Leukemia and FIV Age appropriate vaccines Micro-chipping Treatment for  known parasites [Typically fleas, worms and mites.]
