My story

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

Think of Sandra Bullocks' character in Miss Congeniality. That's Esmerelda. She may not photograph as the most beautiful, but spend just a little time with her and you'll find her to be everything you'd want in a cat. Sweetness, huggability, adaptability, caring (you should see her with her orphan kitten pal), with an occasional side of sass and drama (trimming nails is high drama time, though she acquieces without issue).

While Esme had a bad case of FOMO when she was first rescued, she has become more laid back and even sweeter than she was when she arrived (and she was outstanding). Playful on her own or with pals, she brightens everyone's day with her big, yellow eyes.

And she is not a black cat! Esme has a small white bib, and the very tip of her tail is white. Not a climber like her brother, she is more of a chair and sofa girl and likes to sit or sleep near her humans. She easily accepts being picked up and being smothered with kisses.

As a youngster, Esme does need to be adopted in a home with another cat and would need a proper introduction to resident cats (again, a bit dramatic). She has easily integrated with her foster crew of of cats, and she is best buds with her orphan pal Blueberry (after said drama). She would love being adopted with Blueberry Muffin (available soon) or her brother Salem.

Time for Miss Congeniality to walk down the runway into your heart.

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in Forever Fortunate Felines. We are very happy to have the opportunity to match you with your purr-fect cat-panion!

Once you complete the online application using the below link, you will be able to discuss and ask questions directly to the foster parent. We believe this is a big advantage to you as our organization is completely foster based, we really understand our cats personalities at a deep level. This helps to ensure a great match with you and your family.

In order to get the process going, would you kindly fill out our detailed online application located here:
http://www.foreverfortunatefelines.org/adopt

Completing our online application does not commit you to adopt from our rescue. Rather it helps us to understand your requirements and match you with the best possible cat or kitten.

Once you complete the application and it is approved, we can set up a meet and greet and if all works out, you may bring the kittens or cats home the same day. Please make sure to bring an adequately sized pet carrier with you to your meet and greet. We recommend a pet carrier which opens from the top as this is the easiest way to place a cat inside a carrier. If you do decide to adopt, we do expect you to take home your cat the same day as there are so many cats and kittens which need to be rescued from high kill shelters, we almost always rescue a new cat or kitten the very next day. If it is not possible for you to take your cat or kitten home the same day, we do charge a boarding fee of $10 per day for supplies and to encourage you to take your newly adopted cat home. We will board for a maximum of 3 days if needed to allow you time to get needed supplies.

Our adoption fees are listed at the link below. This fee includes full vetting, flea treatment, de-worming, spay surgery, FeLV and FIV test, microchip insertion, and vaccinations up to date for the kittens or cats age. We are able to PayPal or most major credit cards for the adoption fee.

We have streamlined our adoption process to make it easy! Everything from the application, to payment, to the contract is online. Additionally, all of the cats records will be placed in your free Petlovers account at petstablished.com to keep organized.

With Warm Regards,
