Winter's Story
Winter (The Accidental Tourist)<br/>Meet Winter. He was living the rugged bachelor life in the North Hills until a kind human decided he looked far too handsome for a life of "roughing it."<br/><br/>Winter has waited for a home of his own for one year already. He is not the type of cat that would come directly up to you for pets and love. When you do pet him, he melts into your hand. He's a difficult one to find a home for, because most people want immediate. In order for Winter to find a home, this person is going to have to have faith and something that they cant see only feel it in their soul. That connection, I believe, as what would ultimately get him out the door. <br/><br/>Knock on wood: he has not ever had a problem here. He is the best boy and super easy to care for. <br/><br/><br/>The Look: Stunning markings and a face that could launch a thousand "Pspspsps" (Seriously, he's a model). Is very friendly with the other cats and loves to snuggle them.<br/><br/>The Status: Fully "Vetted" (Vaccines, tests, and a fancy ear-tip the universal sign for "I've been around the block, but I'm a gentleman now").<br/><br/>The Vibe: Shy with new people, has some major potential to show you, and is currently wondering where the room service menu is.<br/><br/>What he needs:<br/>Winter isn't looking for a party animal. He's looking for a patient roommate who understands that trust is earned, not demanded. He's a "diamond in the rough" who just needs a quiet corner and a human who wont take it personally if he acts a little overwhelmed at first. He will adapt and become your closest buddy. <br/><br/>If you have a big heart and a quiet home, you could be the one to show Winter that indoor life is way better than the North Hills woods.<br/><br/><br/><br/> If you're interested in meeting WINTER, email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text (best option) Faon (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit.<br/><br/><br/> Have you filled out adoption applications, and no one has got back to you? Come visit the kitty hotel filled with six rooms over two spacious floors of super cute free roaming & friendly furballs of all ages, color and personality! Our outdoor cat e o is located on 2nd floor.<br/><br/> If you are interested in meeting any of the cats, please email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text (best option) Faon @ (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit. We will get back to you very promptly. The majority of our cats are in one place. Myself and the volunteers spend a lot of time with the cats so we know their personalities extremely well. <br/><br/> Do you happen to be looking for a Real Estate agent, one of our main volunteers works for Berkshire Hathaway. Chelsea donates 10% of her commission back to the rescue, if we help get her a listing. Check our Facebook Save Our Strays if you forget and later want her phone number. She is the "PURFECT Relator" Chelsea Dungan @ 412-297-1606. Help save cats while buying or selling a home. <br/><br/> Since 2020, SOS has rescued and adopted more than 1,500 stray cats in the Pittsburgh area. Included in our $100 (going rate/full vetting is expensive) adoption fee is full vetting. It will cost you more money to have everything we have already completed for them done. Adopting from us supports S.O.S and our mission to save cats from neglect, abandonment, hoarding or friendly strays stuck living outside. <br/><br/>All of our cats are spayed/neutered, dewormed, have received Capstar for any flea issues and NEXGUARD COMBO for any parasites, received two FVRCP vaccines as well as their rabies vaccine, are treated for ear mites (if needed), are combo tested for FeLV and FIV(beware large shelters no longer test) and are microchipped which will transfer to you. Once the adult cats are fully vetted and vaccinated, they freely roam across two floors and (Pittsburgh weather permitting...) also spend time in an outside Catio to soak up the sunshine.<br/> <br/><br/> <br/> SOS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our adoption fee, along with donations, allow us to tend to our rescued cats in the manner in which they deserve: fully vetted and fully cared for. We also allocate funds to continue TNR (trap, neuter, and release) efforts for all of the strays who are too unsocialized and human-adverse for an indoor home. By spaying/neutering, these<br/>cats live a healthier life and no longer contribute to increasing the stray cat population.<br/><br/> When you adopt a cat from SOS, you're doing more than giving a cat a good home. You're also helping those stray cats who cannot be homed. One cats adoption improves multiple cats' lives.<br/><br/> <br/><br/> Email SOS at saveourstrays.pgh@gmail.com or call/text Faon @ (412) 863-0064 to arrange your visit.<br/> <br/> Winter has waited for a home of his own for one year already.
