My story

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

SOLSTICE and COSMIC are an adorable sister and brother bonded pair of kittens.  Cosmic is an orange and white tabby (with a giant purr motor), and Solstice is a “torbie” – a combination of a tortoiseshell and a tabby.  These two had a difficult and dramatic start in life.  When they were about 6 weeks old they were found deep in the forest outside of Oakridge, miles from civilization, and were rescued by a fire service worker. Because of the deep trauma they endured, these kittens are understandably skittish around humans. Their foster mom has been working with them for several months, and they are well on their way to learning to love and trust people. The forever home for these kittens must be a place of calmness, gentleness and safety. These kittens will be a project initially, starting them in one room for as long as it takes for them to grow to love and feel safe with their new human(s). Eventually, once they feel safe, they will be as loving and affectionate as any tame kitties. It is crucial that steps are taken throughout their lives to be sure they never get outside, as with their PTSD they would be terrified if this were to happen. All the initial care, patience and love you devote to these kittens will be repaid a thousand-fold by the huge amount of love and devotion they will shower upon you throughout their lives!

SOLSTICE and COSMIC have been altered, vaccinated, microchipped, are negative for FeLV and FIV, and include a free wellness visit with our vet partners. To meet them in foster care, please submit an adoption application for consideration at CatRescues.org/Adopt or a paper copy available at Petsmart. A volunteer will contact you within 3-5 business days for a possible meet and greet. The $320 adoption fee for the pair allows us to continue to provide care and find loving homes for abandoned and neglected cats in our Eugene/Springfield community. For more information, send an email to AdoptInfo@CatRescues.org or call 541-225-4955 option 1. COSMIC ID# 2501-C0005  SOLSTICE ID# 2501-C0006

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All potential adopters are required to complete our application and contract. Our contract stipulates the requirements for care of our pets. These documents are available through e-mail or at our adoption events. The documents are reviewed by our staff and together with a face to face interview we explore the potential new home. If all parties agree to the specifics of the contract the dog or cat can go home. Adoption fee varies with age of pet.
All pets are current on vaccinations, health checked by our veterinarian, De-wormed, treated with flea medication, spayed or neutered, and cats are felv/fiv tested.

More about this rescue

Our mission is to provide care and find loving homes for cats and kittens of our community, with a focus on those with special needs. Currently we only work with Cats. We offer temporary housing in foster homes until they can be placed through our adoption process. We have adoption centers within both Petsmarts in Eugene, at Chad Drive, near Costco, and 29th and Willamette; PetCo by Valley River Center and Wags Dog Emporium on Coburg Rd. Cat Rescue & Adoption Network works with humane societies, other animal rescue groups, the public and government animal services agencies to offer them relief from their overpopulation problem. All cats in our custody receive the medical care they need. Cat Rescue & Adoption Network is a non-profit organization. All money raised is used to help Cat Rescue & Adoption Network save as many animal lives as possible.
