Snuggles, Tabby For Adoption In Belvidere, New Jersey

Price:

$100

Location:

Belvidere, NJ

Description:

Snuggles, (aka Wittle, because she was so little when we rescued her), also known as Baby Girl (which she loves), came to us while apparently nursing kittens. At the time she was only approx, 7 months old. She found shelter in a fox or groundhog den in the ground under boulders in the woods and would go there after eating. When she finally let us trap her, she was finishing nursing kittens according to the vet, and it became apparent that the kittens drowned during the torrential rainstorms here in New Jersey in July, 2023. We had her spayed, vaccinated, tested for FELV/FIV, dewormed, she did not have ear mites or fleas, and she is microchipped. Snuggles LOVES to be cuddled in her cat bed and kissed all over and even gives us her belly! She is cross-eyed and does not seem to jump high, but otherwise does not seem to have any visual impairments. She loves the laser light, and for us to dangle ropes and make them move on the ground like they are snakes. Snuggles is elusive. She currently lives most of the day in her cage because our rescue does not have a room or free-roaming space for her. She comes up to you for petting, but we can't catch her. We wait for her to go into her cage, which is her safe haven, to eat and relax. Her behavior is normal for a cat that is confined, and we are sure that when she has a room of her own that she will get adjusted to being held. Snuggles would be a great kitty to snuggle in a bed with a person. She is gentle and would be fine with a responsible child but we must give her time to get used to being held. If you are interested in Snuggles, please contact Communities Altering The Strays (CATS), 908-453-XXXX or fill out an adoption application at www.catsincorporated.org. Thank you!Adoption processWe require a pre-adoption application which supplies information to us about the type of cat that would be suitable for the adopter and the home environment. We visit the home with our cats (cats that interest the adopter, and cats that we believe may be a good match for the adopter). We have a leisurely visit with the potential adopter and we all observe the reactions of the cats with the people, and reactions of the people to the cats. Our fees are usually below $100 and all cats are sterilized, have received age-appropriate vaccinations, were tested for FELV/FIV, wormed, treated for fleas, and most are microchipped. We do not allow declawing of our cats,and all cats are adopted as indoor-only pets. Under certain circumstances we will adopt out cats that are suitable as barn cats.Shelter locationAdopters can visit cats in their foster homes, and all arrangements are made with the foster family as to date and time of visit. Private, in-home visits, can also be arranged in the adopter's home, especially if several cats are appealing to the adopter.
