*Princess Rhyme Domestic Short Hair Mix Forest, VA

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Princess Rhyme, affectionately known as "Little Bit," is tiny and mighty! She seems to have stopped growing at 3.5 pounds, so she will always be kitten-sized, but she doesn't let small stature keep her down; she has a big purrbox and loves to snuggle and play! She is vocal and tells you all the news, and she gets along with other cats of all ages; she is also respectful of adult cats and does not annoy them.

Princess Rhyme is an extra special girl; she had months of mystery ailments when she was very young, which our vets believe to be due to a neurological condition; she takes a daily dose of Phenobarbital to prevent seizures, and she gobbles down her tiny dose every night without hesitation (Phenobarbital is thankfully an inexpensive medication).

She also seems to be intolerant of canned food, so it is likely she will always need to eat dry food.

If you're looking for a sweet, one-of-a-kind forever friend, Princess Rhyme is the one for you!

Her adoption fee is $75. Many cats do so much better in pairs, especially kittens, which is why we offer a reduced adoption fee of $25 for the second cat (or more!). Interested in this animal? The first step is an application, which can be completed at www.cvrrescue.org/adoption-applications/.

The adoption fee helps cover a portion of the care provided for our animals, including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm testing for dogs, FeLV/FIV combo testing for cats, deworming, age-appropriate vaccines (including rabies vaccine), and any medical care received while in our care. All cats and dogs are on flea/tick and parasite prevention for the duration of foster care.

Notes about puppies: Adopters can expect a new puppy to have accidents, chew things they shouldn't, and have other normal, energetic puppy issues until they are trained, including jumping, mouthing, and general youthful naughtiness. If you experience puppy issues, please feel free to contact us; we're happy to offer guidance. Also, if a puppy is a mixed breed, we cannot guarantee an adult weight. If your residence has weight restrictions or if you're looking for a specific adult weight, we don't recommend applying for a mixed-breed puppy.

We also offer rehoming services for pets currently owned by individuals. In these cases, we list the animal as a courtesy to the owner, and the animal is not currently in the care of CVRR, such that we can make no representation or guarantee of the animal's behavior, demeanor, or health assessment. All information listed for a courtesy-posted animal is provided by the current owner and should be verified by any potential adopter.

CVRR is a nonprofit organization. We have no paid staff, and all applications are reviewed and processed by our volunteers. Please be patient and understand that it may take 7-14 days to process your application, check your references, and gather follow-up info. You can expedite the process by providing accurate phone numbers and email addresses for your vet and landlord references, and by answering each question fully. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if the animal picks you, too. If it seems the adoption will be a good match for all, we will collect the adoption fee and complete the adoption contract.

CVRR is a NO KILL rescue organization, and we have a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to all of our animals. If for any reason the adoption does not work out, the animal must be returned to CVRR. We will reevaluate the animal and choose a new home based on the best fit for it.
