Are You Looking for the Purr-fect Companion?

June is National Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat month, and these five felines from Animal Adoption Foundation would love to find their fur-ever homes! Take a look, and perhaps you’ll feel a connection.

Angelica

Angelica is a young, black-and-white female cat with adorable white socks. AAF tells the story of her arriving at the shelter:

“This girl came to us pregnant and gave birth to five kittens. She is shy at first, but given time is very loving. She loves laps and belly rubs. She is even good with dogs (as long as they like her).”

Karma

Oh, a sweet black kitten! His sister may have already been adopted, so he is a wee bit jealous. Just look into his beautiful eyes and see if you’ve found a soulmate.

“Hello, I’m Karma! I was found as a stray with my sister, Drama. I am a friendly little man who enjoys attention. I adore my sister. After living on the streets for who knows how long, I am ready for my own home. Will it be with you?”

Cleocatra

Cleocatra gets along well with other cats and is an adult female. AAF volunteers love her, but would love even more to see her find her forever home:

“Cleo is a very special girl with the most beautiful markings and the sweetest face ever. Cleo loves to play with the cats that are in other rooms. She has frequently been seen playing pattycake with cats in rooms 3 and 4 particularly. This awesome girl has a ton of personality and is a volunteer favorite!”

Pom Pom

This adult female cat gets her name from her adorable bobtail. AAF is certain she would love to get to know you:

“Pom Pom is a sweet talker. She looks you in the eye and tells you sweet nothings while she rubs all over you. This girl simply cannot get enough love from people. She is a charmer. And, oh how pretty she is! Pom Pom has a bob-tail that we all think looks like a cute lil Pom Pom You just gotta meet this wonderful kitty!”

Haven

This young, female cat is full of life and character! AAF gives you a peek into her personality:

“Haven is the most photogenic cat at the shelter. Just take a look at her photos…she really mugs for the camera! Look at that smile! Haven is a sweet, outgoing little lady. She is so pretty! She makes the cutest little noises, and has a most unusual but endearing purr! Haven is full of sugar and spice! She is not shy about letting you know what she likes and what she doesn’t like. Haven enjoys playtime and chill time. She absolutely LOVES that little red dot that humans use to drive her crazy! She will stalk and chase that dot for an hour or more! Come in and meet Miss Haven, you’ll fall in love!”

Animal Adoption Foundation is a non-profit, no-kill shelter for dogs and cats in Hamilton, OH. Volunteers and donors make sure these animals enjoy loving care before finding their fur-ever families.

Billie is the Cat of the Month

This three-year-old domestic short hair female is really something special:

“Billie is a a cat with a special form of catitude. She gets along well with other cats in her room, and also enjoys her independence. She will let you know when she wants attention. Wet food is the way to her heart. Billie is a bird watcher. She loves checking out the English sparrows that fly to and fro. Billie was rescued in the middle of winter when she was a stray living in Hamilton. She wants what every cat wants…a ray of sunshine to lie in; yummy food to eat; warm binkies; and love an attention. Billie gets along well with other cats and enjoys just hanging out. We can’t believe this unique girl has been at the shelter over a year now! Please come and meet this lovely girl!”

Not everyone can adopt a cat during Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month, but perhaps you can help a cat in need. Animal Adoption Foundation allows donors to sponsor an animal through a monthly donation. The suggested donation is $30/mo, but donors can choose an amount they are comfortable with.

“Whenever possible, we recognize sponsors on the pet’s information sign and in our newsletters. Sponsored pets may get a little more notice from potential adopters. Will you become a sponsor and help a pet in need?

“Your donation may be tax deductible. AAF is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) no-kill animal shelter located in Butler County (EIN 31-1378848). Questions? Eric Johnson, AAF Director, can be reached at (513) 737-7387 or office@aafpets.org.”

Learn more about sponsorship through Animal Adoption Foundation.

Animal Adoption Foundation’s Cat of the Month

Libby – DSH Brown Tabby

2 years old.  Female

Libby is positively radiant on the inside and the outside.   Libby just glows with love and warmth.   She is uniquely exotic looking with her diffuse light tabby coat and huge green eyes.   She is reminiscent of the Egyptian cat in her appearance.   Just beautiful!   Libby was a pregnant stray and gave birth to an adorable group of kittens while in a foster home.   She is very friendly, loves to play and cuddle, and loves playing with  string.   Now that Libby has weaned her babies, she is ready to live her best life in a loving home!

To learn more about Libby, contact the Animal Adoption Foundation.

2. Submit an adoption application and schedule a first date (a chance to meet your pet before you adopt).
3. Complete your adoption and bring your pet home!

A Chance to Win When You Share Your Pet Adoption

My Furry Valentine is offering Adopter Raffle Baskets to raffle winners. Here are the details:

SPCA Cincinnati’s Fur Ball Gala is an annual event not to be missed, and we are glad we don’t have to this year! The Great Catsby is going to last the week of Sunday, August 23. The week wraps up with a live Gala at 6PM on Saturday, August 29.

What’s the Fur Ball, a first-time guest may ask?

The SPCA Cincinnati’s Fur Ball Gala is the largest and most important annual fundraiser. Each year the generous people of the Greater Cincinnati area come together to support the SPCA Cincinnati and the thousands of adoptable animals we care for each year. Traditionally, this black-tie optional event includes a cocktail/silent auction reception, live performances, a live auction, raffles, and much more.

Animal Adoption Foundation is still offering pet adoptions by appointment only. Here are the shelter’s guidelines:

Due to the pandemic. Adoptions are by appointment only. Our doors are closed to the public otherwise. If you are interested in adopting a pet from the Animal Adoption Foundation, you must first complete an adoption application (you can find that if you scroll down on this page), and then email the application to aafpets@yahoo.com. Your application will have to be processed before we can schedule an appointment. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for opting to adopt.

During COVID-19, shelter animals still need care and attention. Consider making a donation to the shelter to help out.
