Francis

My story

Ideal Home: An adopter with experience, or willing to learn, how to help him live his best life! He would also benefit from at least one other cat in the home. Qualities: Affectionate, Curious, Playful, Resilient 2-year-old Francis is a playful and sweet feline who loves receiving attention and hanging out in his pink cat bed. He is a lovable fella who is currently fostering with other cats and doing great. We think he would be a great addition to your current feline family! Francis enjoys chatting with his foster family and is an excellent listener. Francis joined Ten Lives after his guardian could no longer care for him. He was born with a congenital hind leg deformity that gives him a unique walk but doesn't impede his desire to play and zoom around the house. He is really fast!  Due to this deformity, Francis needs special care, including wearing reusable diapers and maintaining hygiene. His foster family has developed a great routine, and they are happy to share it with his adopter! Francis is looking for a special adopter or foster-to-adopter who can give him the support he needs to thrive. Ten Lives is dedicated to Francis' success and will provide post-adoption support to ensure he continues to thrive!  ___________________________ Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here:  https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/ Please Note: If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications. Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed.  About Ten Lives: Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat.  Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience!  All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Francis, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
