Roosevelt

Roosevelt is a one to two year old red smoked tabby & white bi-color (very rare color - never seen one in rescue before!). He is neutered, microchipped, FIV/FELV negative and has been wormed, vaccinated and flea treated. Roosevelt was rescued from a Texas kill shelter. We have no idea how such a sweet, loving, and outgoing boy ended up in such a place! Roosevelt is one of the COOLEST CATS we've ever had in resuce. He's just awesome - he loves to play, loves attention, loves belly rubs. This boy is very, very active - which is extremely unusual in a persian: he will race around the house - playing with other cats or just by himself; he LOVES wands toys - he will leap and do flips; he also loves the chase the laser pointer. And Roosevelt is a BIG boy - he weighs a small ton. Becuase of his energy/activity level, this boy does need to go to a home that has another kitten/young cat for him to roughhouse with. And Roosevelt gets along great with other animals. Adoption donation - $150. Sorry, we do not ship our cats or provide any transportation. All potential adopters should reside in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, or Louisiana. We will not adopt outside of those states.

Who We Are: We are a not-for-profit organization who is committed to helping Persians, Himalayans, exotic shorthairs, and ragdolls. All of our expenses are funded by personal and private donations. All of our cats are kept in foster homes - please note, we do not have a shelter facility, so appointments must be made prior to visiting foster homes. All of our cats are spayed/neutered, FIV/FELV tested, wormed, de-fleaed, and vaccinated prior to adoption.

Adoption Process: We require all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application prior to setting up an appointment to visit with the cat(s). We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. If you email us, we will provide you with an application by email.

Adoption Fees: Our adoption donation for persian, himalayan, exotic shorthair, ragdoll and Maine Coon breeds are as follows: for an adult cat is $150, a kitten is $175 to $275 - depending on age, gender, and breed of kitten. Other breeds may have differing adoption donation amounts. We occasionally have reduced fees - these will be noted on the individual cat's listing. If someone adopts more then one cat from us, we will reduce the subsequent adoption fee(s) by $25 to $50 (depending on age of cats/kittens adopted). The adoption fees help defray SOME of the costs associated with rescuing/fostering these kitties. Except for the persian, himalayan, and exotic shorthair cats listed on this site, South Texas Persian Rescue cannot guarantee the parentage or breed of cats on this site (unless otherwise noted that the cat is "purebreed"). Please note: if someone places a deposit on a cat/kitten to "hold" them until they are ready to go home, and the person changes their mind, the deposit is non-refundable - it is only refundable if the cat/kitten become unadoptable for some reason.

Donations are always welcome!
