HELLO HOOVER! This very special boy was rescued from a Bronx street in November 2021. He was skinny, starving, dehydrated, and it was obvious that he was deteriorating fast. As you can see from the pictures, HOOVER has half his left ear missing and some bare patches above his ears, sad reminders that life was tough for this little guy! Once inside, HOOVER would eat anything and everything put in front of him. Can you guess how he got his name? It took a few months, but HOOVER has really flourished!!! After HOOVER was neutered, we learned that he was FIV+ (sounds scary but totally isn’t). Check out this link to learn more: https://furkids.org/blog/open-your-home-and-your-heart-to-an-fiv-cat This HOPEFUL HOOVER needs a foster or an adoptive home to continue prospering. A calm and happy environment would be best as he is still learning to trust again. HOOVER is HANDSOME and neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and tested for FIV / FeLV. ***\tTo ADOPT please complete an adoption application at bit.ly/btcradopt *** \tTo FOSTER please complete a foster application at bit.ly/btcrfoster We require adopters to fill out an application, have basic references checked, allow a home visit (to ensure conditions are safe and reasonable), and pay an adoption fee. We allow all adopters an up-to-2-week-long tryout period to determine if the cat is a good match for them. If not, we will retrieve the cat(s) and return the adoption fee in full.
