Bendita's Story

(2 years, 42 lbs.) <br/><br/>Personality: affectionate, goofy, brave, playful, independent, attentive.<br/><br/>Bendita means "Blessed" in Portuguese, and that's how you'll feel with this darling girl in your life! Her favorite place in the world is right near people. If you sit on the couch, she is there with you. Move to a chair, and she hops up to share it. Walk into another room, and you will hear her footsteps close behind. Her love language is quality time, especially if it involves curling up in your lap for a long afternoon snuggle!<br/><br/>She is also happy to play independently with her toys until you are ready for a game of tug of war or more cuddles. Bendita has become a brave little city girl, taking in all the sights, smells, and sounds on her long walks. She is growing more attentive on leash and is making great progress, greeting people politely while out and about.<br/><br/>Bendita is house-trained and does well in her crate when her foster is out and about. She is working on settling comfortably in her crate overnight. She knows her name and the word "come." She can get excited during play or when seeking attention and is still learning appropriate boundaries, so at the moment Bendita might not be a good fit for a home with young children.<br/><br/>This loving girl is a very adaptable city dog, and ready to find her forever "hooman." Your life will feel blessed with Bendita by your side!

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue's Adoption Policy
All of our dogs and cats are in private foster homes. If you are interested in meeting one, please complete our application. Profiles provide all current information we know about the dogs and cats in our care. OUR ADOPTION PROCESS APPLICATION: Interested adopters should fill out an application for the cat(s) or dog(s) you are interested in. Only one application is required, and it applies for all cats or dogs listed on your application. If you are interested in adopting both a cat and a dog, you must complete an application for each type of animal. Important Note Regarding Timing: We screen all applications to find what we believe will be the best environment for each particular cat or dog. If we believe that we currently have a potential match for you, our typical response time is within a week. Please keep an eye on your spam folder! APPLICATIONS COUNSELOR: Applicants who pass the initial screening will be assigned a volunteer applications counselor to work with you throughout the process. REFERENCE CHECKS: If applicable, CDCK will call the applicant’s veterinarian to ensure that previous pets have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and well cared for. CDCK will also call personal references listed on the application. RENTERS/CONDO OWNERS: For renters, CDCK will check with an applicant's landlord to ensure that cats and/or dogs are permitted and that the cat or dog of interest wouldn’t violate any size or breed restrictions. We also review condo association rules regarding pets. ADOPTION CONTRACT: If the applicant is approved for adoption and decides to adopt the cat or dog, CDCK and the prospective adopter will enter into an adoption contract. The applicant will be required to pay an adoption fee, which helps cover our costs from spay/neutering (if age appropriate), microchipping, vaccinations, and any other veterinary attention needed while in our care.
