Poppy ADOPTED

6/21/08 Adopted

5/14/08 I love to sit in the laps of people I've come to know. I talk a little. I have pretty blue eyes. So how come no one has adopted me yet? I'll be good! I'd prefer adults, okay?

1/13/08 These are new pictures of me. I may be a bit quirky, but I know everyone here loves me. I like to sit on your lap if it is my idea. I talk a little bit. I can get grumpy so probably I'm best with adults or older, calmer kids. Come talk to me!

7/16/07 Well, I'm baaaaaaaaaack.

Diary 3/12/07: I am really trying my hardest to get a home of my own, rubbing up against people, jumping in to their lap, and all that. What more can I do? I want my OWN HOME!

Update 11/5/06: As time has gone by, Poppy has settled in well and approaches visitors for love and attention (though still on her terms). She is endearing, and quite the character!

Poppy is a young adult white cat with blue eyes (not deaf). She's a bit of a goofy character, meows silently or not so silently for no apparent reason, and likes to be close when it is on her terms. Poppy tested negative for Leukemia and AIDs, is spayed and current on shots. NOTE: Poppy fought like a wild cat when we put her in the carrier to go to the vet. So any adopter must be aware of this! Poppy might take quite a while to come out of hiding and befriend a new someone, so lots of patience and love is required. She can look quite fierce! We think a quiet adult home would be best for her . UPDATE 4/25/06 Poppy is settling into the 'main cat room' at the shelter and approaches people for some attention. If you sit or lay down, she'll investigate if there are cuddles available. For the right person, she'll be a darling.

Our adoption fee is $45 with a cardboard cat carrier, or $40 if you provide a carrier. All cats must be transported safely in a carrier. Additional carriers are $5 each. The fee includes:

• Worming


• Testing for Leukemia and AIDs


• Core vaccinations (including rabies tag)


• Ear mite and flea check and treatment


• Spay/neuter or voucher for spay/neuter


• Free sample bag of Hill's Science Diet Cat/ Kitten Food


• Lifetime guarantee of the right for the cat/ kitten to be returned to the shelter for any reason.

Come to the shelter to complete an adoption application, or print one from the 'adoption' page of our website http://www.guardianangelscatclub.org and bring it in. Out of town adopters or those wishing to expedite the adoption process may bring proof that pets past and present have been spayed/neutered and kept current on shots. Please note we do not ship cats! Adopter must come in person to the shelter.

Our adoption contract requires that cats be returned to us if for any reason at any time you cannot or will not be able to keep the cat. This includes giving us the option to accept the cat back at the shelter if your vet recommends euthanasia (unless the cat is obviously very injured or sick and sufferering at the time).
