Elara – Adopted!

Elara was adopted Monday, September 19, 2022!

Meet Elara! We rescued this dilute calico lovebug from Devore Shelter in May of 2022. Named after a nymph from Greek mythology and one of the moons of Jupiter, Elara is happy, cheerful, and loving, just as her namesake. She entered the shelter pregnant and gave birth to four kittens on her second day there. Shelter staff estimated her age to be approximately two years old, and our vets concur. 

While Elara has been a fabulous mama, her baby-raising days are officially over, and she is ready to become someone’s baby. She has spent the last two months in foster care raising her remaining three kittens: Dia, Arche, and Darth. While she may be a little shy at first, Elara adores cuddles from everyone. She enjoys being carried (with her petite size, it’s effortless to do!) and spends most of her time making biscuits. She chats, explores, and is a cat toy enthusiast. Her playful personality invites instant rapport with most four-legged friends. Energetic and social, Elara‘s happiness and well-being depend on other animals in her midst. 

If you’d like to start a biscuit factory, Elara is the kitty for you! She makes the sweetest cookies here. Please fill out an adoption application for her today!

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.
