Jiggy – Adopted!

Hi, I’m Jiggy and I’m a love bug! Sincerely, I love everyone – my brothers, my momma and all the other foster kitties in my foster home. I especially love my foster mom and dad. I think humans are great and love meeting new ones that stop by to visit my foster parents. I may be a little guy but my heart is full of love for everyone I meet – two legged and four legged, alike.

My momma, Maura, and my brothers – Bryz, Getzy and Cogs – were rescued from Devore Shelter in July of 2018. I don’t remember much about that because I was just a baby at the time. I was lucky to have grown up in my foster home where everything is safe, fun and where my whole family is loved.

My brother, Bryz, and I have the most unique white flecks throughout our tuxedo coats. When people meet us, they gush over us because they’ve never seen coats quite like ours before. We’re unique that way, and pretty special. Like all my brothers, I love to play, climb and wrestle. If you’re looking for an amazing kitty with lots of energy and who loves life with all his heart, then I’m your guy!

Jiggy was adopted February 3, 2019!

Baby Jiggy

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.
