PET OF THE MONTH: ELEANOR!
Elegant Eleanor and her siblings lived amongst a colony and were brought to safety by our TNR crew last year. Quite timid at first, she has made beautiful strides in becoming a loving, social cat.
Eleanor loves to be stroked and that includes her belly area. She isn't especially fond of being held but will allow you to hug her briefly. She prefers to sleep and lounge in her bed but will occasionally sleep with people though not at their faces. She is certainly not a dominant girl but neither is she afraid of other cats, despite her petite stature.
Eleanor gets along with the other cats and dogs in her foster home. She is litter box trained, spayed, microchipped and up to date on all vaccines. Her forever family should include another gentle cat or dog with whom she could socialize and would give her time to assimilate into new surroundings.
The Humane Society of Alamance County does not operate a shelter or facility. Our foster animals are cared for in private foster homes by our amazing foster families!
You may scroll to the bottom of the page to complete our Adoption Interest Form. References will be contacted, and a home visit completed (in person, via photos submitted or zoom call) before a "Meet 'n' Greet" will be scheduled between the applicant and the animal of interest. We ask that you allow our adoption coordinators 7 - 10 business days to process your adoption application and reach out to you.
PLEASE NOTE!
Serious inquiries only! (Please read each pet's description and make sure their needs match your family's expectations in a new pet before submitting a form on their behalf.) We work hard to rescue and take care of our foster pets and community animals in need, on a daily basis. If you submit an application to adopt one of our dogs or cats but adopt an animal from another source while we are processing your application, PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE AND INFORM US OF THAT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE so that we may move on to the next applicant and find our pets their true forever homes.
