My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Are you ready to be a HERO??? Chum Chum needs a patient, loving, kind person or family to give her a chance at a wonderful life. We have cats that come to us from rough circumstances. They have never had a loving interaction with a kind person. They have learned to fear people. Often when they are young they can come around. However, this is difficult when they are among another hundred cats at a shelter. They are looking for that special person to take the time to work with them. Some people call these guys, semi or soft Feral.

Chum Chum came to us from a neighboring county's animal control. She was on their euthanasia list because they felt she would never get adopted since she was a scared cat. We believe that all lives matter and took her in. She is now in our adoption room and loves cuddling with other cats.

She has a couple of favorite friends, but she especially loves Spunky Spud. They would make perfect companions in a home and we find sometimes it is easier to work with 2 of these cats than one. She also spent time in a kennel with another kitty, a tortie named Mattie. Either of these would be great options for adopting together.

Chum Chum has been fully vetted - altered, vaccinated, combo tested and micro-chipped. Because she will have to be “worked with”, we are offering her at a reduced adoption fee of $75 to cover a portion of the vetting. She needs to be kept inside and acclimated. Once familiar with their family and territory, she may be able to become an indoor/outdoor cat. But remember, they haven’t been outside since they were tiny, so take that into consideration.

If you are that wonderful person, please let us know and we will set up a meet and greet!!

Here is a little more information about Semi-Feral Cats: These cats are generally born outside, and not having human contact, are very shy initially. With lots of love and patience, a semi-feral cat can become a loyal, devoted pet. The semi-feral cats at the shelter have been socialized to varying degrees. Some let you pet them and some you cannot touch because they have not yet learned to trust. They are not aggressive, just frightened. Semi-feral cats generally love the company of other cats, and therefore, make great companion animals. Please keep in mind that semi-feral cats do not make good pets for households with young children, as they are easily frightened.

Additional adoption info

Our kitties are ALWAYS spayed/neutered and vaccinated before we put them up for adoption.
The adoptee will need to fill out an application and be approved, then they will be contacted regarding setting up an appointment to meet our available cats and kittens. If we feel it necessary, we may request a home visit. We want to make sure the adoption is a good fit for both owner and pet.

We have adoptable cats and kittens at Petland in East Rome and Petsense in West Rome, GA or by appointment. We keep our shelter location private so that we do not have kitties dropped off with us.

More about this rescue

Floyd County has the 3rd largest intake of cats in the state, including all Atlanta-area shelters. Floyd Felines was created to stop the weekly euthanasia. We pull sick cats and young kittens out of Floyd County Animal Control, now known as Public Animal Welfare Services, and take them to our private shelter where they are able to get necessary attention. We also pull hundreds of healthy, adoptable cats and kittens to be transported to Northern rescue partners to have higher chances of adoption. This work opens kennels at animal control so that it is no longer required to euthanize for space.

We also have a working cat program, where we match up “feral” cats to approved, outdoor homes where they can control the mice and snake population. These cats are usually some of the first to be euthanized at shelters, so we are thrilled that we are able to provide hope for their futures.
