Van Gogh's Story

This is the cutest cat ever. His right ear is damaged. Apparently he had a hematoma that was left untreated, but that is what happens to stray and abandoned animals. Their medical needs are not addressed and causes ailments/injuries unattended. He looks like an MMA fighter with a cauliflower ear and knocked out teeth, but it adds to his charm. He also had really bad dental disease which we took care of by providing a dental and unfortunately, he lost most of his teeth. Van Gogh came from one of the colonies. We thought he was a feral because he wouldn't let us anywhere near him. We trapped him, expecting to release him after his neuter, but once we saw how sweet he could be, we took a chance on taking him in to our adoption program. He has always been really quiet and chill, but he has slowly started trusting us. He now demands to be pet and can't get enough of it. He likes to lay near you as well. He is about 6 years old and quite charming. He gets along very well with the other office cats and he loves taking naps. His favorite thing to do is lay by the window and take long naps and he LOVES FOOD! He is also a big clown. He lays on the floor all the time on his back and he also lays next to the water bowl and rests his chin on it. If interested, please email Mirna at Mirnabowman.cdc@gmail.com 614-471-9000 Must be 24 or older. Adoptions to Central Ohio homes only. All dogs and cats in the home must be spayed/neutered. Adoption Fee $100.00 per cat.

Columbus Dog Connection's Adoption Policy

Requirements for Adoption: Must live in the Central Ohio area. For rescues/shelters across Ohio, visit: ColumbusDogConnection.com/RescuesShelters.html Must be over the age of 24 to adopt. Your resident pets must be spayed/neutered. Adoption Process: We do not have an application. Adoptions are pet-adopter driven. To meet our pets: Call our office at 614-471-9000 or click on the pet which you are interested in and send email. We are happy to discuss the adoption process. The foster dogs are in foster homes and most of the cats reside at our office. The adoption process includes a lease manager reference (if applicable) , a veterinarian reference, and a home-visit (in-person or virtual). If you've never owned a pet, part of our adoption process requires that you call several vet offices to compare services, prices, and availability. Questions to ask include: How many doctors are at your practice? Can I request to see a specific Vet or would I be scheduled with first available? What are your hours? How much is: annual exam, heartworm test & tablets, an x-ray, vaccines, a non-emergency office call? Do you recommend vaccines every year or every three years? (every 3 yrs as suggested by the AVMA) The pooch that visits your home will go back home with us to allow your family to discuss and ensure he/she is a good fit for your home. There is an adoption agreement and adoption fees are as follows: $300 for Adult Dogs (6yrs & younger) $200 for Senior Dogs (7 yrs and older) $80 for Cats All pets are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm tested (dogs), fiv/leukemia tested (cats), & micro-chipped.
