Fancy Cats Rescue Team

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.

Meet Calvin was at the shelter 2 months

We're reaching out with a heavy heart and a plea for help for our dear Calvin. This sweet 8-month-old pup has been under our care for 54 long days, and every day that passes without finding him a loving home weighs heavily on our souls. Calvin arrived at our shelter full of hope and excitement, his tail wagging with anticipation of the wonderful adventures that lay ahead. But as the days turned into weeks, Calvin's optimism began to wane, replaced by a sense of longing and uncertainty. Despite his youth, Calvin has already spent too much time behind shelter walls, deprived of the warmth of a cozy bed, the joy of a playful romp in the park, and the unconditional love of a devoted family. And with each passing day, the light in Calvin's eyes dims just a little bit more. Calvin is a typical puppy in many ways - playful, affectionate, and full of boundless energy. However, it's important to note that Calvin has shown negative reactions when meeting other dogs. This behavior requires a bit of understanding and management, as Calvin navigates his journey toward becoming the best version of himself. Despite his challenges, Calvin's capacity to love knows no bounds. All he needs is a chance - a chance to show the world just how special he truly is, a chance to be the loyal and loving companion he was always meant to be.

Adoption Process
Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
