Babe – Adopted!

Babe was adopted on Saturday, January 13, 2024, by the same adopter who adopted her daughter, Matilda Wormwood, two years ago!

Say hello to Momma Babe! Babe is the sweet matriarch of her large family of SEVEN kittens – Amelia Bedelia, Ramona Quimby (adopted), Curious George (adopted), Matilda Wormwood (adopted), Paddington Bear (adopted), Madeline (adopted), and Corduroy (adopted) – were rescued from Devore Shelter in San Bernardino at the end of June when she was barely a year old and her kittens were almost 8 weeks old. She was exhausted from caring for all of her littles at the shelter and seemed so relieved to finally have some help from her foster mom when she was rescued!

The whole family was named for classic Children’s Storybook characters and, just as the pig in the story oversees and cares for all the sheep on the farm, Momma Babe has dutifully cared for her large flock of kittens! And now it’s time for Babe to find a family who will care for her!

Babe is a sweet girl who loves to be pet and receive attention. She can be a little mouthy when she gets excited from the attention, so small kids might not be a good match for her. She doesn’t mind the dog in her foster home, and she loves to snuggle with her kittens … she even seems to have a favorite snuggle buddy in Amelia! Babe generally gets along with the resident male cats in her foster home, but she can be a bit of a bully to the female cats that aren’t her kittens, so that’s something to keep in mind when deciding if Babe might be a good match for your family.

She would be ecstatic to be adopted with her kitten, Amelia, but would also be quite happy to be adopted with any of her kittens, or to be an only kitty in her new home if she were to receive lots of attention!

Babe is still quite young, so she likes to play with toys and chase her kittens around the house when she’s feeling playful. When she tires from the play time, she’s happy to curl up near her human for some love and affection!

Momma Babe has tested negative for FIV and FeLV and has been spayed. She’s also been microchipped and is up to date on her vaccinations! If you’d like to turn the page of your book with this beautiful kitty by your side, then what are you waiting for? Apply to give this little lady a place in your story and your heart 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.
