My story

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

VELCRO KITTY WHO LOVES TO CUDDLE

DOB 6/12/24

Hey there, everyone. I'm Dionysus, and I'm a sweet, affectionate black DSH/ Bombay mix fella in the #Greek-god-gang. I was named after the god of wine and pleasure. I’m the softest little black cloud you’ll ever meet! Bombay kitties are often called Velcro cats because we like to stick so close to our favorite hoomans, and I'm no exception.

The second Foster Meowmy sits down, I crawl up in her lap to await her cooing over me as well as gently stroking me. I may even hug her hand to show how much I’m enjoying her attention; then again, I may give her an ever-so-gentle love bite. Even when I'm in the middle of playing with my siblings, if I see a chance for hooman attention, I come running to curl up in Foster Meowmy's lap. I’m very vocal when I want attention and will happily jump in her lap for petting and cuddling.

I also have a mischievous side to me. I love to play hide-and-pounce when Foster Meowmy least expects it. Also, to her exasperation, I love to splash my water bowl with my paws and maybe even drag it around.

My momma Hera had been a stray who had had multiple litters over several years. A Good Samaritan decided to "stop the cycle" and rescued Hera and her "fresh" litter, i.e. my three siblings, Hebe, Hermes, Apollo and me. I adjusted seamlessly to indoor life, even though my foster home has resident dogs. I tolerate them but prefer the calmer ones and jump up into the cat tree to get some distance from the hyper ones.

Now I'm ready to find my forever home. If you're looking for an absolute love bug and lap kitty, I'm the boy for you! Arrange to meet me today! I just may even hug your hand!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adopting an animal is a very serious decision and we want to be sure that our potential adoptive families have thought about the impact of this decision carefully. To adopt an animal through HOPE, we request that you complete an Adoption Application, a copy of which is available online for cats at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php or for dogs at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php. You may fill it out online or print a copy of the application and complete it prior to arriving at an adoption session. This will expedite the adoption process and will also assist our adoption counselors in matching you to a suitable pet.

We at HOPE make every effort to match our foster pets to appropriate homes. If you feel that we are too intrusive, please understand that it is because we care about their welfare.


Fees
All animals are neutered or spayed and have received age appropriate shots prior to being adopted. We ask that you provide a $100 donation for cats and a donation of $150 for dogs when you adopt your new family member from us. This donation helps us in defraying the costs of these and other medical needs of our animals.

Go meet their pets

Mobile adoption sessions are held on the weekends. All adoption sessions run from 12:00 - 4:00 pm at a variety of locations and days as noted on our website http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-locations/. For more information, please contact us at hope@homelesspets.net

More about this rescue

Our mission is to end the homelessness of cats and dogs through foster to adoption, feral cat Trap-Neuter-Return, and education.

HOMELESS & ORPHANED PETS ENDEAVOR (HOPE) is an all-foster, no kill adoption group based in the Houston area.

HOPE covers the cost of general medical expenses for the animals in the program, such as altering, routine vaccinations and treatment for parasites. Our foster families are asked to provide food, shelter and love to the animals for which they care. They receive no payment for the services that they provide. Without them, and the other volunteers who so selflessly do what is necessary to keep HOPE afloat, it would not be possible to run this nonprofit corporation.

One aim of HOPE is to develop a network of area rescue and humane organizations which will facilitate the rescue and placement of a variety of animals. The goal is to never have to turn away an animal in need. By forming a coalition of humane and rescue groups in the Houston area, we could potentially place all animals who need a temporary home until they are placed into a permanent one.
