ALTHOUGH THIS SWEET KITTY IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION THROUGH THE KING GEORGE ANIMAL RESCUE LEAGUE, he is available NOW through her foster mother.
Hi Everyone. My name is McKay and Iâm a young tuxedo cat. The vet thinks I'm about 1 or 2 years old. On September 20 and 21 I got so hungry that I dug through this nice lady's trash outside of her house. Then on September 22, I decided to make my move and befriend this lady, her husband, and their three dogs. Well, needless to say, they just fell in love with me right away. I mean, who could blame them? I am the friendliest cat youâll ever meet. I even love rubbing up against their 70 pound and 80 pound dogs. Iâm not really into playing, but I just love to be held and petted. I really want in the house, but something about her husband being deathly allergic to cats, so Iâm not allowed. Iâm scheduled to get neutered, UTD on my shots, FeLV/FIV tested, and dewormed on September 30th. Theyâve set up a little home for me on their porch and give me plenty of food and water, but I really need a place to call my own.
If you are interested in me, please email Dani at dlc9s@virginia.edu or call her at 540-775-4397. There is no adoption charge. Adoption process Submitting an application does not guarantee a specific dog or cat. We strive to match the personality and needs of our foster dogs and cats to a family who will best fulfill those needs. If a family is not approved for a particular pet, it does not mean they will not be a good pet owner, it just means that their needs and the needs of the particular pet don’t match. We do not adopt on a “first come, first serve” basis. Once your application is received, the application process begins. We will review your application, check your references, check with your vet (if there are other animals in the household), speak to a landlord (if you rent), and arrange for a home visit. Once your application is pre-approved (meaning, we don't see any red flags based on our preliminary review of your application), the applicant may be invited to meet their potential family member at a location convenient to the foster family (usually at the King George Petco). Adoptions will NOT take place at the meet & greet, this is just a chance for us to get to know you and for you to spend time with our animals. After the meet and greet, we will ask that you spend some time thinking over your decision and we will do the same. After the application review process is complete (meet & greet with animal, home visit, reference/vet checks, background check, etc.), if all is acceptable to both adopter and KGARL and we all agree to move forward, we will schedule a day/time to finalize the adoption. The adopter will be asked to sign the final paperwork and we will collect the adoption fee (cash, check, or paypal are all acceptable). At this time, you can either pick up your pet, or schedule a time to do so. Adopters will be required to schedule an appointment with their veterinarian of choice within 15 days of taking your new pet home. Please note that we do not do same day adoptions. If you are applying for a popular animal (such as puppies, small dogs, or special breeds), it can take several days for our volunteers to reach a decision that is best for the animal. We understand that it's difficult to wait, but please don't email us multiple times a day to check on the status of your application. We are a very small group and the same people that are reviewing your application are also replying to hundreds of emails and Facebook messages. We are all volunteers and have full time jobs outside of KGARL, so any time spent replying to emails/messages is time we are not reviewing your application.
