Poppy – Adopted!

poppy4POPPY is a petite calico beauty with a very sweet demeanor who is ALWAYS kissing and grooming her feline foster brothers and sisters. This young adult kitty instantly bonds with other kitties and spends all of her time with her furry pals, showing them how much she adores them and their affection. Poppy was most likely socialized a bit too late in her kittenhood with people, and so isn’t a love bug with her people, but she IS very much comfortable with living with them. She is out and about at her foster home, like any other confident kitty, taking cat naps anywhere and everywhere and sleeping in bed at night piled up with her foster mommy and the other kitties. And when it comes to play time, she comes running full speed to get in on the action!

Poppy would make an EXCELLENT companion for a lonely, sweet, and friendly kitty and will thrive in a home where she can love another feline. In fact, her foster mom has not seen a kitty more in tune with other cats and her tenderness with them is heart warming. Poppy is most in love with her foster kitty sister, Abby Newt, and does her best to be near her a great deal, but she doesn’t lavish ALL her time and love on Abby alone.

Poppy is very happy to curl up with any ol’ kitty that will have her attention! Her foster mom will see her sweetly approach the other kitties to snuggle in for a cuddle nap, or walk up to them and just start groom their faces- it is adorable and heart melting… and so is Poppy. She is an easy- like- Sunday- morning kitty who will make a lonely or affectionate kitty looking for a BFF very, very happy.

We must note that this darling little kitty requires a soft food diet, as she only has her 4 canine teeth. She suffered from LPGS (Lymphocytic/Plasmacytic Gingivitis Stomatitis, a very painful automimmune disease of the gums and teeth) until a full mouth extraction relieved her of all of that. She can still eat kibble (and really likes it when it is served as a treat) but a kitty with 4 teeth needs a soft diet to ensure they get adequate nutrition. And, because a moist diet is the best diet for cats, all of the kitties in Poppy’s foster home eat a moist food diet exclusively. So, there is no difference at all between her and them. Poppy is a beautifully hearty, perfectly healthy, and extremely happy go lucky kitty with no health issues or concerns. 🙂

What’s Included In Our $175.00 Adoption Fee?

Kitty Devore Rescue is committed to rescuing responsibly. 

This commitment means we hold ourselves to a high standard of care when it comes to the kitties in our foster care program. It also means each Kitty Devore Rescue kitty has undergone 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 a fee less than ours – but their fee may include fewer vetting procedures that we consider necessary to ensure a kitty’s optimal health. Some offer kitties for adoption who have had no vetting procedures at all.

If you were to adopt a kitty for less or one “free to a good home” and, as a responsible pet parent, opted to have all the vital and necessary health procedures done that every cat in Kitty Devore Rescue care receives, this is what that “free” kitty is likely to cost you:

Spay/Neuter – $60.00 to $150.00

FeLV and FIV Testing – $40.00 to $80.00

FVRCP Vaccine(s) – $10.00 to $25.00 per vaccine (kittens need a series of 3 for optimal immunization)

Rabies Vaccine – $10.00 to $25.00

Microchip – $25.00 to $50.00

Flea/Earmite Treatment – $15.00 to $30.00 per monthly dose

Deworming – $15.00 to 25.00

Exam fee each vet visit – $30.00 to $75.00

Total: $195.00 to $455.00

•

These are just the basics.

Most veterinarians charge somewhere within these price ranges for these basic procedures.

Kitty Devore Rescue kitties undergo basics and, in some cases, even more! Kitties in Kitty Devore Rescue foster care who are in need of 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 all our adopters with full veterinary records and history of their newly adopted KD kitty, information about the microchip transfer* and an adoption box containing toys and treats for their new feline family member by USPS mail within 3 weeks of the official adoption date.

Additionally, the adoption fee is refundable in full if things don’t work out within the first 30 days. Even after 30 days, if for any reason you need to return your adopted KD kitty, we will always welcome them back into Kitty Devore Rescue foster care. We will always be their safety net for the duration of their lifetime.

And yet, our adoption fee is still $175.00 for every cat and kitten. Or $325.00 for two!

So, if you’re looking to adopt a new feline family member and friend, what are you waiting for? Apply to adopt a KD Kitty today!

* Microchips are transferred from KD’s microchip registry to the adopter 30 days from the official adoption date
