Thom-Thom – Adopted!

Thom Thom was adopted December 11, 2020!

It was October of 2018 when then-2-year-old Thom-Thom found himself admitted to Devore Shelter. Bewildered, he had no idea how he’d wound up there and, even more concerning, how he was going to get himself out. After all, he was a handsome ginger kitty who had always been easy to get along with and never met another kitty or human he didn’t like. What on earth did he do to wind up in kitty jail, he wondered.

Thom-Thom was spared the effort of plotting his escape because the Kitty Devore Rescue Team had a plan to bust him out – and so we did. He was happily welcomed into his new foster home with open arms. There, he met new friends – most of whom had also been rescued from Devore Shelter. Never having spent time with so many other kitties, he realized his more mellow nature is one that prefers time on his own and special one-on-one relationships than large social gatherings. He found he also enjoys the company of dogs.

Yes, he definitely thrives on attention from humans – but on his own terms. After a trial adoption into a home with younger children, we discovered he’s not a fan and would definitely do better in a home with adults and much older teenage kids.

Most of all and because he’s of a more soulful nature, he loves hanging out in his kitty tree, surveying and observing the activities of others. Oh, and treats – he really loves treats, too!

If cats have a philosophy, Thom-Thom is a master of contemplation. If you believe this mellow, good natured fellow would be the perfect companion for you, fill out an application to meet him today!

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
