About

Roscoe's approximate date of birth is May 4, 2022. He is neutered, age appropriately vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/Felv and he has a registered microchip. His adoption fee is $300.00 + tax. Roscoe would like to take this chance to tell you a little about himself and his demands for his new family! Dear Human, Before considering my adoption, please read the terms in my contract below. Humans must agree to all terms and are effective immediately upon adoption. This agreement is made for the purpose of setting forth the exclusive terms and conditions by which I, Roscoe, desire to have in my forever family. These terms are non negotiable. I. In the morning we will meet in the bathroom for a pep talk. You will sit and I will put my front paws on your legs to ensure proper eye contact. I will do all the talking, you will do all the petting. II. Following our pep talk, I will escort you to the kitchen. During this time, I will weave between your legs. This let's other strange cats know that you are in a committed relationship. I will do this daily. III. Once in the kitchen, I will supervise as you prepare my breakfast. If you take too long, I will kindly give you another pep talk to encourage you to move faster. I must eat my breakfast as soon as we wake up. After all, I do wait all night for it. IV. As you are putting on your shoes to leave for your human job, we will have one final pep talk. Again, I do all the talking and you do all the petting. Sometimes I will leave a toy in your shoe so you think of me while you are gone. Please check your shoes and do not smash my toys. V. While you are at your human job, I will require a place to lounge by a window. Preferably with sunshine and where I can see birds. Lots of birds. You know what birds seem to really like? Bird feeders. VI. Upon returning from your human job, I will greet you at the door. I will smell you to see where you have been and who else you have been petting. You will need to give me lots of pets to make up for the day. VI. You will be allowed to eat your dinner before serving me mine; however this will not be without consequence. Since I will be simply famished from waiting all day; I will insist you share your meal with me. I will be relentless. I will stop at nothing. VII. After dinner, you will most likely end up relaxing in your favorite chair or on your favorite couch. I will accompany you. You will pet me. I won't always be on your lap. Sometimes I will be on the arm, on the floor by your feet, or on a chair next to you. You must be ok with that. See next term. VIII. I was born in the wild outdoors and lived there the majority of my childhood. Tiny little unpredictable humans weren't so nice to me and sometimes hurt me. As a result, I fear my four paws leaving the ground and being immobilized. Please do not pick me up until I am ready. IX. At bed time, I will escort you to the bathroom. We will again have a little chat. We will tell each other all about our day, you will pet me and I will rub upon your legs. This is to keep other creatures away as you sleep. I will join you until you fall asleep. After that, I will scan the house for safety reasons. Sometimes I will return to bed with you, but sometimes I won't. I'm a cat, it's how we are. X. You must promise to love and commit to me forever. Every choice will be made in my best interest. If you are moving, you will take me with you. You will never put me in a shelter. If I am sick, you will take me to the doctor. If I am dirty, you will not bathe me (although in an emergency you can use a dampened towel). You will not remove my claws. You will never put me outdoors. I might make you think I'm interested in the outdoors, but I am not. You will keep your home clean and free of anything that can hurt me. I prefer not to, but if we have to take a car ride; I will be in a secure crate. When I am called to go home, you will be with me in my final moments. P.S: I almost forgot the most important term. You must have another cat! I have separation anxiety, but don't worry it's not THAT kind. I won't destroy anything and have never scratched furniture. In fact I only use my scratcher post when I feel the need. I only do my business in a litter box. I do not jump on countertops and I will respect your space. I am gentlemen. Getting back to the point, I hate being alone. Last time I was alone I cried and cried and cried. It's so scary. Plus, I LOVE other cats. I don't even have to interview them first; I just want to be friends immediately. I haven't ever met a cat I don't like. As long as they are nice to me, we can be best friends. I also like dogs. (If you tell anyone else I said that, I'll puke on your new rug). I just want to be friends with everyone. After all, wouldn't the world be such a lonely place without friends? If you can agree to all of these terms and want to be considered for the position, please send in your application. My personal S.T.A.R. assistant will get back with you as soon as she can. Thank you. If you would be interested in meeting a Saving Tails Animal Rescue pet or being considered for an adoption, please complete an adoption application at savingtails.org.
