Cole

Cole was taken in by a Good Samaritan when found as a stray and brought him inside for his safety. He has been neutered, tested negative for felv/fiv and vaccinated. He will be microchipped upon adoption. From his Foster Mom: Cole is a very handsome black cat with a glossy coat. The veterinarian estimates his age to be around 4 years old. He has short hair and shimmers in the sunlight. He is very playful and loves toys. He likes to jump and bat at toys thrown for him and would probably learn to fetch, too! His favorite toys are cat kick toys and stuffed mice. He loves the other house cat in the home, but that cat is elderly and does not appreciate being asked to play so often nor want to cuddle. He would most likely love a home with more playful friends. He has not been around dogs, but may be fine with a cat-friendly and gentle dog. He likes to cuddle and likes attention. He may be apprehensive of new people at first, but quickly becomes accepting and warms up after he realizes he will not be harmed. Cole is lively, looks outside in the mornings, rests during the afternoon on his perch. After supper he has play time, naps then plays again before bedtime. Cole is looking for a loving and caring family or person with maybe a feline friend who likes to cuddle and play. Could that home be yours? The adoption fee for Cole is $100. All cats and kittens are tested for feline leukemia and FIV, vaccinated with FVRCP vaccinations and rabies if 4 months or older, dewormed, given vet-approved flea prevention, spayed/neutered if older than 4-5 months and microchipped. We strive to do all that we can to make sure that we are adopting a healthy and happy kitty into a new home. In addition, all of our cats and kittens are fostered in either a private home or office setting so that volunteers can socialize the kitties, develop good litter box habits and get to know their personalities to make as best a match as possible with an adoptive home! Cat Adoption Guidelines: You must fill out an application to be considered for adoption. Send your application in directly at www.ForThePets.org. You can email us with any questions at [email protected]. This is not a first come process; we try to match the cat or kitten with a home that will be a Forever Home. We are a small group of volunteers that have full-time jobs outside of our volunteer time for the humane society. The time to process an application can vary depending on the availability of the Cat Adoption Team, the information provided on the application (whether it is completely filled out) and the number of applicants for that pet. We try to process them as quickly as possible. All of our cats are indoor cats only unless otherwise specified. We do not allow a cat to be declawed. If you are wanting a declawed cat, please do a search on petfinder and filter to declawed kitties to see what might be available. We do not fly or ship our cats due to heat/cold concerns and safety issues. If you are willing to fly out AND fly the cat back in the cabin (size restrictions) with you, that would be considered. We do adopt out-of-state, but we do not transport. If you apply to adopt a cat and are chosen, you must come to Murray, KY to pick up the cat and fill out the paperwork in person. We can't provide individual meet and greet sessions for each applicant. If chosen to adopt, you will have plenty of time for your family and pets to visit with the potential new family member before signing any paperwork and will not be committed to adopt if you choose not to at that time.
