Cady and Gretchen – Bonded Sisters

Gretchen and Cady were surrendered to Devore Animal Shelter in May 2026 when they were only five weeks old. Because they were too young to remain safely at the shelter, a plea was sent to rescue partners asking someone to take them into foster care. Kitty Devore Rescue answered the call. The sisters first stayed in a temporary foster home until they were old enough to begin their vetting at eight weeks, then moved into the care of their long-term foster family, which includes two young girls who have happily welcomed them into their daily adventures.

Gray-and-white Gretchen is the confident big sister: a little fluffier, a little bolder, and overflowing with charm. She is independent enough to explore on her own but never too dignified to join her human sisters for Barbie adventures or stroller rides around the house. Gretchen loves affection and rewards attention with gentle purrs and playful head bumps. Curious, intelligent, and easygoing, she is equally happy chasing toys, lounging in a sunny spot, or keeping watch over Cady’s antics. She is wonderful with children, is learning her kitty manners beautifully, and may also be comfortable sharing her home with a calm, cat-friendly dog.

Petite Cady is the sweetheart of the duo, with charming calico spots sprinkled across her back and a heart full of affection. She believes every human deserves a little feline supervision, especially while working, and will happily perch on a shoulder to make sure everything is being done properly. Curious, playful, and devoted, Cady follows her people from room to room, curls up in their laps for naps, and brings them her favorite feather wand when she is ready for a game. She is gentle and patient with children, accepts nail trims and handling with ease, and is learning not to scratch furniture or climb on counters.

Gretchen and Cady are deeply bonded sisters who bring out the best in one another, so they must be adopted together. They play hide-and-seek beneath blankets, race through the house in joyful bursts of kitten energy, cuddle, and comfort each other. Every kitten deserves a best friend with whom to share life’s adventures, naps, and occasional troublemaking, but most of all, every kitty deserves a forever family committed to loving them for their entire lifetime. To apply to adopt Gretchen and Cady, please visit www.kittydevorerescue.org and submit an adoption application today.

Our regular adoption fee is $200 per kitty, but when you adopt a bonded pair, you receive a $25 discount and the adoption fee for both is $375.00!

Cady and Gretchen reside in a foster home in Lakeside, CA, in San Diego County. If you are interested in adopting this dynamic duo, please know that we will expect you to travel to their foster home for a Meet and Greet.

Our Kitties Have It All!

Kitty Devore Rescue commits itself to rescuing responsibly. 

We hold ourselves to a high standard of care regarding the kitties in our foster care program. Each Kitty Devore Rescue kitty undergoes a comprehensive vetting and post-shelter rehabilitation process before we consider them ready for adoption.

Some rescue groups and shelters offer kitties for adoption for an adoption donation less than ours. Still, they may include fewer vetting procedures that we consider necessary to ensure a kitty’s optimal health. Some offer adoptable kitties who have had no vetting procedures at all.

“Free to a good home” kitties are not necessarily free to adopters. Responsible pet parents who care about the vital and necessary health procedures every kitty needs to ensure good health will find their out-of-pocket costs looking something like this:

Spay/Neuter – $80.00 to $200.00+

FeLV and FIV Testing – $40.00 to $80.00

FVRCP Vaccine(s) – $15.00 to $40.00 per vaccine (kittens need a series of 3 for optimal immunization)

Rabies Vaccine – $15.00 to $40.00

Microchip – $25.00 to $50.00

Flea/Earmite Treatment – $20.00 to $30.00 per monthly dose

Deworming – $15.00 to $30.00

Exam fee each vet visit – $40.00 to $80.00

Total: $250.00 to $550.00

•

These are just the basics.

Most veterinarians charge somewhere within these price ranges for these standard and essential procedures.

Kitty Devore Rescue kitties undergo basics and, in some cases, even more! Kitties in Kitty Devore Rescue foster care needing dental, medical, or surgical intervention receive immediate and quality veterinary attention and treatment. We address all observable and discoverable health issues – both internal and external. If there is an issue, we address it – even if that issue costs us thousands to treat and correct.

Once adopted, we provide our adopters with complete veterinary records and the history of their newly adopted KD kitty while in our foster care program. Additionally, we relay information about the microchip transfer* and an adoption box containing toys and treats for their new feline family member by USPS mail within three weeks of the official adoption date.

We refund 100% of the adoption donation if things don’t work out within the first 30 days of the adoption date. Even after 30 days, we always welcome previously adopted Kitty Devore kitties back into our foster care program, remaining their safety net for their lifetime.

And yet, our minimum adoption donation requested per adoptable cat or kitten stands at a flat $200.00 and $375.00 if you adopt two!

So, if you’re looking to adopt a new feline family member and friend, what are you waiting for? Apply to adopt a Kitty Devore Rescue kitty today!

* We transfer the microchip registration to our Kitty Devore adopters 30 days from the official adoption date.
