 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-01-00423Cotton (male)
Hello! My name is Cotton. I'm a super awesome 10 year old cat who acts 2. I love attention, people, and other animals. I don't really like to be picked up, but I will tolerate it. I love to headbutt legs and hands, and also snuggle on your lap. I love to stay indoors, but will venture out for an hour or two every so often. Most of all, I need a great home to go to. I'm a foster cat and would love to see a forever home! Let my foster human know if you can bring me home or know of someone who can. Meow! Ps. My family had taken care of Cotton since he was born, but he needs a good home since I am moving soon. Thanks! He's a big sweetheart. I ... (Read More)will gladly provide a litter box, some litter, and some food, if needed. (Less) Deschutes County Redmond, OR MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-04-01-00420Debra (female)
Debra is a 3 year old female cat. She's a tuxedo, black and white. She's a little skid-dish at time, but loves people. She does well with kids, but just ok with other cats. She will hiss at them, but never start a fight. The only cat she has been friendly with his her brother a while back. She is indoor and outdoor. She would really make a better single cat pet, but I've had her with a couple of other cats and she does just fine, except for hissing. She is very soft and affectionate (although not overly), with a soft meow and purr. I would love to find a great home for her, as she's a great big sweetheart. The heart on her nose proves it! :) ... (Read More)She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her immunizations. (Less) Deschutes County Redmond, OR MAP IT!

 | Animal ID: 14-04-01-00155Caroline (female)
Caroline has been with us almost a month, in our small bathroom. She had been dumped in a neighborhood and left to fend for herself. Then, she had kittens. Someone brought her to the shelter. The kittens were adopted, but not Caroline. She went into a foster home, the foster mom got sick, many other cats were there%BD'%BD|and Caroline was the last to be retrieved from the home, 5 months after she'd arrived. She spent much of that 5 months hiding. So by the time we got Caroline, she was skeptical about people. Now, she seeks me out. In just one month, she has become a purring girl who asks for chin scratches, makes muffins when ... (Read More)petted and will play all day with you. Until recently, she was unwilling to get onto the floor in our presence (her hangout is a waist level shelf). But now, when I sit on the floor she leaps down and is ready to play, going behind me, rubbing beside me, ready for fun. About 2 weeks ago she started meowing when I'd come in -- a big deal for a girl who felt she had to be quiet and hide to be safe. This is very loving, affectionate cat who would do well in a quiet home environment where she would be allowed to take her time getting used to things. Probably a 1-2 person household best, no kids. Caroline has a startle reflex -- i was petting her on the floor, and someone walked down the hall on the other side of our closed door, and she had to scoot back up to her shelf. That kind of thing. She is getting better about being picked up. We will start working on getting in and out of a carrier soon. Caroline needs a catty person. No magical powers required. Just a person willing to take the time, and actually interested in helping Caroline take steps of progress. Someone who could find joy in that. She needs an indoor home, and I think she would enjoy other cats. She trills to our cats through the door at night and seems very interested in them. She is not aggressive at all--has never put a claw in me even by accident --so I think other cats would be fine. This sweet, shy girl has shown she can come out of her shell. Wanted: someone who can help her do it, and give her the forever home she has never had. Please call Judy, 541-471-2986. (Less) Josephine County grants pass, OR MAP IT!

 | Animal ID: 14-03-29-00312Bella (female)
3 year old female, spayed and chipped. She is not family friendly, not great with kids or other animals. She tends to be bitchy more often than not. She CAN be sweet though. She used to sleep with me at night (we have recently moved). She has no desire to be outdoors. I think she would be a great pet for someone who is lonely and at home a lot.

 | Rescue Me ID: 14-03-10-00512Bombay (male)
Bombay is a total lover. He is content with a warm lap, spot in the sun, and a soft blanket on your bed. He has been declawed and has lived indoors his whole life. He is 12 years old. He has been raised with a dog, and is very comfortable with her. He does not like dogs that chase him. He does not get vaccines, as he is severely allergic. He has almost died twice, so I stopped getting him vaccinations. He is healthy as a horse! Just had a blood panel done in fact, and everything came back normal. Over the past year, he has started pooping outside of his litter box. I am not sure if this is due to us moving, but it is a new behavior. ... (Read More)Unfortunately, we are pregnant and I cannot work with him on this right now. I have tried everything I can think of - 2 litter boxes, cleaning it immediately after he goes each time, etc. But sadly, my husband is insisting we get rid of him. I have been putting him in our backyard, but he constantly meow's to get back in. I want him to have a better quality life than we can give him at this time. He will be your shadow and companion, offering cuddles and lots of purring. He is very vocal (as Bengals are!) and loves the water! He is my sweetheart, and I want to see him go to a loving and patient home, with someone that has understanding of this type of situation and can work with him. I am asking an adoption fee because I want him to go to a good home, not just go to anyone that wants a free cat. (Less) Multnomah County Portland, OR MAP IT!

This kitty is so sweet. Today I called him 'Target' from markings on his side.He was dumped in our neighborhood,collectively a couple of us have feed him and had him fixed. Loves to be with and around people. My mom is on a walker so we can not keep him as a forever home. He is so deserving of one. Lane County Eugene, OR MAP IT!

 | Animal ID: 14-02-24-00290Dexter (male)
Wish this sweet boy, Dexter, Happy 3rd birthday (DOB 03/29/2011)! This white with brown markings is a snuggle-bug guy who loves having his neck and chin scratched. He is a shy boy at first but once he warms up to you he becomes very affectionate. His favorite activities are sitting on the windowsill watching the birds and picking on the dogs. Yes, he has lived with a couple dogs and has enjoyed their company. He has also lived with another cat and they were two peas-in-a-pod although he does enjoy his one-on-one with his human parents. Dexter hasn't lived with kids but has watched them play from afar when he has gone to visit schools or just ... (Read More)when nieces and nephews have come over to play. He prefers to be around the older kids verses the smaller children because he's not a fan of the tugging and pulling that sometimes happens with smaller kids. If you're laying down for a nap and leave the bedroom door open, Dexter will take that as an open invitation to come snuggle up next to you and share your pillow. He is a sweet boy that is looking for someone to take good care of him. (Less) Lane County Eugene, OR MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 13-12-30-00288Elphie (female)
About Elphie: I am a sweet, 11-year-old spayed girl whose mom's living situation changed and she can no longer keep me. I am really healthy, but do take a medication (only $4/month from Fred Meyer) to help me with my anxiety as I can sometimes be shy and get stressed out around other cats or small children. I'm current on all my shots and have a great relationship with my vet at Fremont Veterinary Clinic. I do really well in a calm, quiet environment with a parent who likes to cuddle in bed or on the couch. I have always been an indoor cat and don't have much interest in exploring the outside world or getting up on countertops. I have ...

Miss Priss is a very sweet older girl who just wants to love on you and share your home. Her owner had to be placed in assisted living unexpectedly, and she is currently being fostered by someone from her vet's office. She gets along fine with her two foster brother cats, and has loved all the people she has met. She has mild allergies, but is otherwise in tip top shape, and very feisty for her age :) Washington County Beaverton, OR MAP IT!

 | Rescue Me ID: 13-12-05-00465Bob (male)
We found Bob as a stray and took him to the shelter (MCAS) about a month ago. A few weeks later, the shelter called as we requested they do if he was at risk of being euthanized. Bob was considered unadoptable because he was paralyzed with fear while at the shelter. Hours later, after we picked him up, Bob was curled up beside me on the couch asking for a belly rub. This sweet, belly-rub loving cat needs a forever home. Could it be yours? All About Bob Bob is a very sweet, generally laidback cat. He's very food and affection motivated - loves wet food and belly rubs! He enjoys a balance of play and relaxation. Stringy cat dancer toys are by ... (Read More)far his favorite, though he likes his mouse toy when no one can play with him. Loud sounds and sudden movements by people, other animals or objects do spook him. He will hide, but once reassured by the voice of someone he trusts (ie. person feeding him his wet food) he will come out of hiding easily. It's unclear how much exposure Bob's had to other animals, but with slow introductions he's been fine with our dogs and cat. Based on observation, we think Bob would do best with a dog who is very laid back and not easily excitable and/or a cat that likes other cats. We've had him for over a month now, providing him with his own room and slow introductions as recommended. He's already acclimated to our dogs barking and is even curious about them. He doesn't mind when our dogs lay near him on the same couch and they've even sniffed each other a few times, but he's still not 100% comfortable without a bit of distance (6 inches when they're napping or sniffing about) and sudden movements do spook him. With our cat, he's been curious and hasn't displayed any aggression towards her when we've introduced them. He will meow at her and try to approach, but unfortunately our cat is not at all welcoming and growls/hisses, so have to keep them separated. In terms of Bob's homeless history, he'd been living outside our home for over a year. We thought he was a neighborhood cat, but realized he had nowhere to go when the temperature dipped below freezing so we took him in. Just before taking him to the shelter, I found out from his microchip the name of his previous owner, but no contact info was listed. I searched for her online and visited the 3 listed addresses, to no avail. The shelter gave us his vet records after we took him back. We found out his name is Bob, that he's 5 1/2 years old, been neutered and vaccinated and is terrified of the vet. We were given meds to calm him down prior to vet visit and it works really well. (We had to take him to our vet to get him treated for the respiratory infection he picked up at MCAS, which has cleared up and he is no longer contagious.) When we took him in his skin was a mess and he was loosing fur at the base of his tail due to flea and possible flea allergy. So he's now on a monthly preventative flea treatment - we give him Advantage b/c apparently Frontline no longer works. His skin has healed up nicely. Now that he's healthy, he just needs a home. We want to make sure Bob finds the loving home he deserves. After years of fending for himself, we hope to find someone who will take good care of him and love him as much as we do. Please email if this person could be you!

| PIease Read Before Adopting a Cat in Oregon | |||||||||
Cats can make good pets in Oregon if they match your IifestyIe. Domestic Cats have been intriguing companions for humans since ancient times. Worldwide, cats are even more popular than dogs as pets. Sadly, huge numbers of cats are in need of adoption and care. A cat owner who no longer wants the cat, or is no longer able to care for a cat, may drop the cat off at a shelter or simply abandon it. Overcrowding in shelters, along with too few adoptive families for the cats, leads to many wonderful pets having to be euthanized. Abandoned cats fend for themselves and breed in the wild, forming colonies of feral cats. Feral cats have such a difficult existence that they typically only live an average of two years, whereas domestic cats can live an average of twelve years with proper care. Organizations exist that can catch and tame feral kittens, and then place them in a home, but adult ferals can rarely be socialized to trust humans. Meanwhile, many prospective cat owners choose to purchase a kitten from a pet store or breeder, and may not know that even purebred cats and kittens are often available for adoption. Once someone is ready for the responsibility of caring for a cat, adoption can be an incredibly rewarding decision. Adoption benefits cats, owners, and society alike. Adopting a cat is typically much less expensive than purchasing one. Shelters often have a wide selection of very sweet, friendly cats and kittens, including purebreds. Adoptive owners enjoy bonding with their pets, and have the extra satisfaction of knowing they have rescued a wonderful companion from a hard existence. Every cat adopted means one less cat has to be euthanized. Every kitten purchased new results in one less opportunity for adoption to take place. If you are ready for a pet cat, please consider adoption! Rescue Me! - HeIpingAnimaIs in Need. |  | ||||||||
