Adoption information
About Snowy
Snowy is your typical Ragdoll. When you pick him up for a cuddle, he just flops against you and would probably stay in your arms forever if you let him. He loves to be around people, but in his current foster home he has quite a bit of competition, which he is highly unimpressed about!
While Snowy is currently fostered with lots of other cats, it's clear he would prefer to be an only cat. He tries his absolute best to swat the other cats out of the way so he can have the humans to himself, but oddly they get really annoyed with him. He's perplexed! He's absolutely fine with the resident foster dog.
Snowy is perfectly happy to sleep the entire day. If you're looking for an active, playful cat, Snowy is not the cat for you! He might deign to swat at a dangly toy, but he's not going to go looking for one! He's not bothered by noise and activity, but that activity is unlikely to be something he's participating in. He's happy just to sit around and show off his floof.
When Snowy came to the rescue he had quite significant dental disease. He's now minus quite a few teeth, but he's a a lot more comfortable and happy (and less drooly). His new owners will need to make sure they look after his remaining teeth and make sure the tartar doesn't build up again.
Snowy would really be happy in any home but would be best suited to a home where he is the only cat. He wouldn't mind if his owners were at work a lot of the time. He's happy to sleep until you get back. As long as there is food and cuddles, he's a happy boy.
Medical notes
As per his profile Snowy came to the rescue with significant dental disease. He has had multiple teeth extracted, and the vet has said we will need to be careful with caring for the ones that are left.
Adoption details
ADOPTION PROCESS:
1. An Adoption enquiry should be made via
https://form.jotform.com/shellys.place.rescue/adoption-enquiry
2. Once your application has been received, one of our volunteers will contact you for a phone interview. This is to determine whether one of our cats or kittens will be a good fit for your home. We all want long-term success in placing rescue animals, so finding the best fit for the animal AND the family is very important.
3. 'Meet & Greet' with the animal and their carer will then take place if the application is approved.
4. A property check will take place via a video. Once this has been successfully completed, adoption paperwork finalised and the adoption donation processed, the pet can be collected from foster care.
5. A 14 day settling-in period commences once the animal has been collected from foster care.
6. Adoption is finalised after 14 days. Paperwork/records will be included in an adoption pack.
7. All animals will be rehomed desexed, 1st vaccinated, microchipped and treated monthly for fleas and intestinal worms. Once the adoption is finalised, the new owners are responsible for all vaccinations and preventative treatments.
As we are run entirely of volunteers we endeavour to respond to your enquiry as soon as we can. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
PLEASE NOTE: We are unable to hold any animals. Please only apply if you are ready to adopt now.
