Dinky – Adopted!

dinkyDinky is exactly as her name suggests, very small. At 11 months old she is a whopping 5.3lbs. She is expected to stay small as she grows into an adult.

As her foster, I’ve had the joys of watching her grow from 6 weeks old to the pretty girl she is now. We jokingly call her the “grandpa cat” because of the shape of her head, which is kind of blocky, and the funny expressions she makes. Also, her meow is low. The best way to describe her meow is like an old smoker, low and gravelly.

She is shy with new people and would take some time to come out of her shell in a new household, but she is soooo worth it. She is very loving and is the best night time cuddler. She enjoys playing with our other kitties. And don’t let her size fool you; she will chase around any kitty while playing. She is not afraid!

She does not seem to be a fan of dogs, and if she had her choice, would rather not be in a home with doggies.

Dink is a very very special girl and needs a home that will take excellent care of her. She does have a minor heart murmur which has gotten better with age. Originally it was listed at a grade 3 out of 6, but was recently reviewed to a 1-2 grade. So any future anesthesia needs to be done with great care, and with a very low dose and should be discussed with the vet before any surgeries. Because of her size it’s recommended to keep her on a very healthy food diet, and to keep up with regular vet visits. Kitty Devore had blood work done to see what could be the cause of her small size, but the blood work came out fine, with no explanation. Her new family should keep up with regular visits to a vet that can get to know Dink and track her growth.

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.
