Nanuk – Adopted!

Nanuk, her momma, Sakari, and her siblings, Kavik and Miska, were rescued from Devore shelter in early June when she was just two weeks old. They were all very sick with a nasty cold, but with the help of KD’s great vets and fosters, they’re now all thriving in foster care!

Nanuk is the Inuit word for “polar bear”, which is exactly what this gorgeous, lilac-point, snow-shoed beauty looked like when she was a tiny ball of white fuzz. She has grown into a stunning little lady who, having two brothers and several foster brothers, can hold her own in a kitten wrestling match! Her tail seems to get fluffier by the week, and she holds it high when she struts her stuff on the cat-walk (coffee table). Like her momma, she has a sleek, but medium-haired coat of fur. Her foster mom’s favorite thing about her though is her little smudge of a white mustache! Nanuk oscillates between being very playful with her siblings- wrestling and chasing after toys, snuggling and purring with her foster mom, and needing a few moments of quiet time to herself…your typical girl! She will be happiest being adopted with a sibling (may we suggest Miska?!) or into a home with a young/playful kitty that can be her buddy. She gets along with everyone, even the dog when she’s not being rambunctious.

Nanuk was adopted October 5, 2018!

** Please be aware: Nanuk is a highly socialized kitty who has grown up in a foster home with playmates. She is best suited for a home that has other kitties close in age and energy levels or be adopted with another kitten from our rescue. We will not consider applicants who have no other cats and only plan on adopting one kitty.

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.
