My cats can be friendly, but tend to avoid the dogs, so they don't want much to do with her when she barks at them, we've done some introduction, but the cats don't like to be barked at. <br/>Ideal Home<br/>Basil would thrive with a family committed to providing plenty of appropriate chew outlets, enrichment activities, and continued training. This little has some smarts and she is trainable. She would enjoy a busy home while also appreciating time to relax after play sessions<br/> <br/><br/>Current on DHPPV vaccinations, deworming, and microchipped.<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $350

The Furry Farm Rescue's Adoption Policy
When you see an animal you would like to find out more about and meet, please go fill out our adoption application to start the process. Our adoptions are not first come first served, but a match of the needs of the animal with the best potential adopter. You can expect to hear from us within a week or two after submitting your application. With review of your application, we conduct a phone interview, check references, and speak to your veterinarian. During that process we will also schedule a time for you to come meet and get to know your new furry friend. If you have other animals, we will want to do intros at that time. We then ask you to take a few days to think about it and let us know. Next, we come to your house and do a last meet and greet before finalizing the adoption. All adopters sign a contract with the Furry Farm Rescue. All of our adoptions come with a 2 week trial period for dogs, and 1 week for cats. This allows you and your new furry friend some time to bond and decide if this is a forever family. Our Adoption fees vary between $50 to $275 for dogs, and cats are $40 to $60. Each pet’s fee will be listed in their biography.
