Zoey's Story

This stunning seal point kitty with the bright blue eyes is Zoey. She<br/>is a Siamese diva who is looking for just the right home to suit her<br/>needs. Someone who lives a laid back lifestyle in a quiet home will be<br/>ideal. Zoey's new person should be willing to provide small and gentle<br/>amounts of affection on Zoey's terms (not terribly often) and also will<br/>follow a routine feeding regimen (much to Zoey's dismay).<br/><br/>This girl knows what she wants when she wants it. She's independent and<br/>sassy. Although Zoey is definitely not a lap cat and does not often ask<br/>for attention, she does like to be around people on her own terms. She<br/>was slow to come around, but now spends quite a bit of time with her<br/>fosters and will seek them out (although her tolerance for being touched or<br/>petted hasn't really increased.) When Zoey is feeling receptive, she<br/>allows some gentle scratching under her chin and on the back of her<br/>neck, as well as a few pets. If you continue petting Zoey past her limit, she will let you know that she's had enough. She does enjoy being talked to but prefers if you keep your hands to yourself. She has become interested in playing on a routine basis, usually in the evening and sometimes in the morning also. She isn't generally a fast moving cat so it can be almost like playing in slow motion, but she does obviously enjoy it and is entertained. About 10-15 minutes a session is usually enough. Despite Zoey's low interest level in affection, she is often found<br/>waiting in the hall to greet her foster family if they've been out of the house for any period of time.<br/><br/>Zoey is a low maintenance cat who doesn't need a large area to run<br/>around in. She has the zoomies occasionally, but rarely runs anywhere<br/>otherwise. Like any cat, she likes looking out the window but really<br/>wants an easy access route. This girl is quite lazy!<br/><br/>What Zoey really wants is to get right into bed with you; right between<br/>the sheets. She also enjoys sleeping right under a light blanket on<br/>top of a bed (preferably the bed her people use.) She's quirky, what can<br/>we say? She is also a cat that enjoys having lots of surfaces to<br/>scratch. Trimming her nails isn't something Zoey enjoys, so having lots<br/>of both horizontal and vertical surfaces for her to scratch on is important.<br/><br/>We're unsure why, but Zoey seems to gravitate towards the men in her<br/>foster family more so than the women (although she is happy to spend time around both men and women.) Her foster mom (despite being very gentle with Zoey) also seems to attract more sass from miss diva than her foster dad<br/>does. As well, Zoey uses her mouth to communicate with her foster mom<br/>if she thinks it's time to eat or play. She does not use her mouth on<br/>her foster dad. We don't know why she's more comfortable with men<br/>than women in general, but it's an interesting thing to note.<br/><br/>Zoey will do best in a quiet home with 1 or 2 calm, cat-experienced<br/>adults. It will be really important that Zoey's new family can read<br/>her body language to know when it's appropriate to give affection and<br/>when she needs space. Zoey has no experience with other animals (cats<br/>or dogs) and doesn't give the impression she's looking for company. <br/>She will not be a suitable cat for a home with children. Since she's<br/>fairly independent, it probably doesn't matter too much whether Zoey's<br/>new family is home for much of the day or works. Thus far, Zoey has<br/>been used to living with retired folks who are home most of the day.<br/><br/>Zoey was surrendered to us because her senior owners were moving into a care home. The change was very difficult for her and it took her a long time to settle in. Therefore, we are looking for a home for Zoey where she is unlikely to<br/>have to endure another move at any point in her future. She turned 5<br/>years old in August 2025, so we hope that she has another 10-15 years +<br/>ahead of her. Zoey gets very stressed in the care, so at this time we are only considering homes for her that are in the Greater Victoria/Peninsula area (south of Duncan.)<br/><br/>If you'd like to apply to adopt Zoey, please visit the adoption section<br/>of our website at https://victoriapets.ca/adoption process/.

Victoria Pet Adoption Society's Adoption Policy
Adopting a pet is a lifetime commitment and a big responsibility. Dogs can live 15 years or more, and cats can live 20+ years. Like people, each individual pet comes with its own set of baggage, needs, and personality traits. Because your new pet will depend on you to provide its basic needs, we need to be sure that you are educated and up to the challenge. Our adoption process allows us to ask you some questions about your home environment, your lifestyle, and your needs, expectations, and limitations. We want to be sure that your new pet is going to be just as happy in its new home as you are to have it there. A Successful Adoption Process Includes the Following Steps: To start the adoption process, please complete the online adoption application found at https://victoriapets.ca/adoption-process/. If our adoption team feels as though your home will be a great fit for one of our pets they will contact you to set up a visit supervised by the foster parent who can answer some of the questions you may have about the animal of interest. You will not be able to take the pet home the day of the visit. One of our volunteers will contact you after the visit and will open a dialogue with you based on the information provided in your application. We will talk about your home and family, as well as your experience with pets. We will ask you to tell us about the kind of life and care you can offer to the adopted pet, and we will inform you about any health or behavioural issues that you should be aware of. (For dogs only) Once an adoption is pending, we will come visit your home to ensure that the environment is suitable for the pet in question, based on its needs. We can advise you of modifications that could make the adoption more successful, such as fencing and other things you may not have thought about. The adoption process generally takes several days, and this time line is intentional. It allows you time to think about your decision so that you can be sure that you are comfortable with the decision that you’ve made. Adoptions are never approved within 48 hours of the application being submitted. Once we have successfully journeyed through the steps above, you can pick up your new friend to begin a wonderful life together! Signing an adoption contract is a requirement for every pet that is adopted. Adoption Fees are as Follows: Kittens (up to 12 months of age) $400 Adult Cats (1 yr - 8yrs) $300 Senior Cats (9 yrs and older) $250 Special Needs Cats (other than kittens) $250 Puppies (up to 12 months of age) $600 Adult Dogs (1 yr - 8yrs) $400 Senior Dogs (9 yrs and older) $300 Special Needs dogs (other than puppies) $300 Rabbits $50 Guinea Pigs $30 Rats/hamsters $20 Mice $10 Adoption fees for other species may vary
