Peabody is a very special kitten who recently arrived at our rescue from Kalamazoo County Animal Control. He is very eager to find his forever home, but is happy to hang out with his foster family while he waits! We believe that Peabody was born partially blind, and that he can only see shadows and light depending on the room and environment. He gets around pretty well for his age and disability, and is a huge sweetheart who is going to be a great lap cat. He will need a home that is willing to work with him and make some small adjustments to their home in order to keep him safe, but for the most part he is a completely normal kitty and easygoing!

The Animal Rescue Project is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.

Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet.

Please understand that these animals are still new to us and their needs and requirements can change at any time as we learn more about them. We will try our best to get them updated online as soon as possible.

All cats and kittens are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medical to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and mites they may have. All cats and kittens are feline leukemia tested, and cats at least a year old are also tested for feline immuno virus. Each cat or kitten receives the FVRCP vaccine; if a kittens stay with us is long enough, two or three boosters will be given after the initial vaccination.

Most cats and older kittens are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of kittens not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization.

The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.
