Adopt a Domestic Long Hair (long coat)

Domestic Long Hair (long coat) Cat

Papa & Freddie the Cat needs a home

Papa and Freddie have always been together. They were probably abandoned pets at one time because they had experienced human contact.  Luckily, some kind people cared for these homeless cats, responsibly spaying and neutering all the strays they were feeding.  Eventually, the caregivers had to move, but they didn’t give up on the cats.  They found good barn homes for them and safely relocated the colony.  But Papa and Freddie deserved more than a barn home.  They were friendly with people.  They deserved a real home, so they were brought into the shelter for adoption.  Sadly, Papa and Freddie have been at the shelter all winter long waiting for their furever home. We don’t think they’ve minded too much, it’s the best winter they’ve experienced in a long time... it sure beats being out in this cold!  These cats are best buds, and the person caring for them has paid half of the adoption fees in order to keep them together.   They are very well behaved, sweet boys who just want (and certainly deserve) a warm sunny spot to bask in, or a permanent lap to sit on.  They are very gentle, and would make loving companions for a family.  Please come in and meet Papa and Freddie... see if there is room for both of them in your home, and your heart.


 

Here is the adoption process:

 

You must come to the Shelter to complete an application which is reviewed right away. If everything is okay you can meet any of the animals. All animals are $60, if they are not spay or neuter, there is a $35 refundable deposit that is returned upon proof of surgery. 

 

If Volunteers For Animals spayed or neutered the animal, we are suggesting adopters make a donation of $35 to help with the cost of the surgery which is significantly less than if you had to go to a vet. All of that donation will go directly towards spaying and neutering the next animal we take into the Shelter. You will be helping to "Spay it Forward" and reduce the homeless pet population. 

 

We only accept cash or checks. Please bring a carrier for cats to go home in or you can purchase a nice cardboard carrier for $5 from us. If you live in Genesee County, all dogs must be licensed before they leave the Shelter which is done through your city/town clerk's office (typically M-F 9-5). Please bring a leash when you pick up your new friend. Our adoption hours are Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 1-3; Wednesday 7-9 and Saturday 11-1. 

 

If the cat or kitten is at Petco, you can go in anytime during Petco's store hours to complete an application and see the cat or kitten. Once a day a volunteer stops into the store to review applications and will call you with questions or let you know the adoption is approved. You can return to the store anytime to pay the adoption fee and pick up the cat or kitten. The adoption fee is $40, cash or check, and the animal must leave in a carrier. 

 

Thank you for considering a homeless animal.
