Chex – Adopted!

Chex was adopted June 19, 2020!

Chex it out! This boy is the one for you. Chex is an extremely affectionate kitty that can’t wait to be welcomed into your home. Chex is absolutely beautiful with long, soft, golden hair and piercing jade green eyes. Chex loves to cuddle up right next to you, or on your chest, and purr until the cows come home. He can be a little shy at first, but once he has adjusted, he’ll be super happy to play, take long naps in the sun, and hang out with your family.

Chex has a pending adoption! We are so sorry but we are no longer accepting applications for this handsome boy.

Chex was one of over 20 kitties Kitty Devore Rescue took in from a former rescue partner rescue group after they announced they were closing their doors in 2019. At the time, he was estimated to be about 6 years old. Coming from a previous group where kitties were able to intermingle with one another, Chex does enjoy the company of other cats – but, now that he’s in our care, we’ve found he enjoys being the center of attention and would likely fit better in a quiet family comprised of adults or adults with older children who want an only kitty or who are seeking to add a second one. He’d also be best suited to people who appreciate a playful, attention-loving kitty – because he’s definitely that! Chex does not scratch or bite. He also doesn’t talk very often, but when he does, he speaks in adorable chirrups. He loves to luxuriate on soft surfaces, stretch out his paws, and knead the ground in happiness. Chex will find ways to play by himself, zooming around the room, or happily play with you and any cat toys that you offer him. You can tell he’s excited when his butt wiggles and he’s about to pounce on the toy.

Chex has an adorable, mischievous side. If you watch TV, he’ll sneakily watch you from around the corner or make you laugh from his silly faces and mannerisms before coming up to sit at your side. When he gets all tired out, he’ll curl up into his cat bed and tuck his face into his fur. He’ll blink sleepily and adoringly at you if you start to pet him. So throw Chex into the mix and fill out an adoption application today! He Chex out!

Kitty Devore Rescue is committed to rescuing responsibly.

This commitment means we hold ourselves to a high standard of care when it comes to the kitties in our foster care program. It also means each Kitty Devore Rescue kitty has undergone 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 a fee less than ours – but their fee may include fewer vetting procedures that we consider necessary to ensure a kitty’s optimal health. Some offer kitties for adoption who have had no vetting procedures at all.

If you were to adopt a kitty for less or one “free to a good home” and, as a responsible pet parent, opted to have all the vital and necessary health procedures done that every cat in Kitty Devore Rescue care receives, this is what that “free” kitty is likely to cost you:

Spay/Neuter – $60.00 to $150.00

FeLV and FIV Testing – $40.00 to $80.00

FVRCP Vaccine(s) – $10.00 to $25.00 per vaccine (kittens need a series of 3 for optimal immunization)

Rabies Vaccine – $10.00 to $25.00

Microchip – $25.00 to $50.00

Flea/Earmite Treatment – $15.00 to $30.00 per monthly dose

Deworming – $15.00 to 25.00

Exam fee each vet visit – $30.00 to $75.00

Total: $195.00 to $455.00

•

These are just the basics.

Most veterinarians charge somewhere within these price ranges for these basic procedures.

Kitty Devore Rescue kitties undergo basics and, in some cases, even more! Kitties in Kitty Devore Rescue foster care who are in need of 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 all our adopters with full veterinary records and history of their newly adopted KD kitty, information about the microchip transfer* and an adoption box containing toys and treats for their new feline family member by USPS mail within 3 weeks of the official adoption date.

Additionally, the adoption fee is refundable in full if things don’t work out within the first 30 days. Even after 30 days, if for any reason you need to return your adopted KD kitty, we will always welcome them back into Kitty Devore Rescue foster care. We will always be their safety net for the duration of their lifetime.

And yet, our adoption fee is still $175.00 for every cat and kitten. Or $325.00 for two!

* Microchips are transferred from KD’s microchip registry to the adopter 30 days from the official adoption date
