My story

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

Hello, I'm Taffy! I was born in May 2024, so I’m getting to be a bigger kitten now, but I’m very much still young and impressionable.

I had a lonely start in my kittenhood, and spent several months not trusting humans, but my foster mom has been so patient with me, and I’m so happy that she has, because it’s nice to have someone to be my bestie. I come to sleep with my humans when I feel lonely, and come to get pets when I’m feeling confident. I really am very, very sweet, just like taffy candy. I’m always happy to see you.

I still have my kitten mew-mew, and will talk to my toys, but also talk to you when it’s time for snacks. Sometimes, I get so excited for mealtime, I will make biscuits as I eat. I’ve also recently started to make biscuits at cuddle time, and my foster mom is so proud of me for coming this far! I’ve also recently discovered my tail; why it keeps moving when I try to catch it, I don’t know!

I'm looking for a patient, experienced cat parent that can help continue to teach me to trust humans. I didn't know love as a young one, and so day-by-day, I'm learning to be loved. I need a home that will look forward to the reward that comes with developing me into a social family cat. I would be fine by myself because I love attention, but I would love a play buddy if you already have someone at home that is itching to play.

A quiet house would be ideal for me as I come out of my comfort zone and you show me that it's OK to be loved. I'm making so much progress on that front! I'm so happy to be learning this new life of love. I don't think kids or dogs would be good for my home because a lot of commotion is still scary to me.

Adopt me and let's create sweet memories together!

Taffy has been spayed and microchipped. She is up to date with the vaccinations and rabies. She has tested negative for FeLV/FIV.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

1. Review the description of the pet you are interested in to make sure that the information we have fits with your particular needs and desires. In most cases, the information on the website is current and gives the information that we have about the particular pet. The picture of the pet does not tell the whole story.

2. Complete the adoption application at https://pawsforlifenc.org. Please make sure that you give us as much information about yourself as you can. List all animals currently living with you including other dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and rodents. The application needs to be complete in order to help us determine if the pet you have chosen is a good match for your home.

3. Once the application is submitted we will contact you, your references, and your vet.

4. We require a home visit prior to dog adoptions.

5. If more than one person applies, we will go with the BEST fit. If all things are equal, we go in the order the applications were received.

6. Once the home visit has been completed, you will be asked to complete an adoption agreement.

7. The adoption fee is $325 for dogs under 6 months, $300 for 6 months and older. The adoption fee is $125 for kittens under 1 year ($225 for 2 kittens), $85 for cats 1 year and older. This fee helps us to provide the necessary medical care and other needs for the pets while in foster care.

8. All Paws For Life NC pets are spayed or neutered if old enough, current on shots, micro chipped, and to our knowledge, in good health before they are adopted out. Puppies under 6 months of age will require a $100 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee and a special puppy spay/neuter agreement. Kittens under 6 months will require a $50 refundable spay/neuter deposit in addition to the adoption fee. We are all volunteers and receive no monetary compensation for our work with the pets. The adoption fee is used to help defray costs in the rescue and care of the pets.

9. Congratulations! You are on your way to having your new companion. We hope that you and your new companion share a life of love and happiness. We welcome any comments you may wish to give us about your pet at any time.
