Foster Notes: Nera needs a home with a cat whisperer - someone who will understand and respect her boundaries but will also be committed to continuing her socialization. When she came into care a few months ago, she was very scared and it took a look a long time for her to finally trust her fosters. Over the last few weeks, she’s finally come out of her nervous shell and discovered her snuggly side. She likes to talk/chirrup to her humans, she now likes to be pet (but gently), and we are working on her allowing us to pick her up (so far, so good!). She would do well in a home with another friendly cat. She has not been tested with dogs but given her nervous nature, it may not be recommended. Due to her nature, I would not recommend her in a household with children. She needs someone who will be committed to keeping her well groomed. As her hair is very long and thick, she needs daily brushing - this is something she actually enjoys in small doses. Nera has a sensitive tummy, and is doing well on a Veterinary gatrointestinal food. She may grow out of it , but we recommended to continue with this diet for now, especially when transitioning to a new home.

 

ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee is $165.00 (which includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner). There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
