Meet Phoenix

If you're looking for an energetic boy who follows you around the house, Phoenix is for you! He's a toddler in cat form - almost 14lbs, solid and wiggly like a piggy, he is inquisitive, personable, and has a lot of love to give.  

 

He has come a long way since he was rescued as a stray with a large facial wound; it left him with a scar and potential dependence on steroid medication, but he takes his pill easily in his food. He would do well with an experienced cat owner who can  understand his journey. 

 

Likes - attention, spring toys, running, shredded cheese, belly rubs, clean clothes in the laundry basket, hunting his toys, climbing, mealtimes, being held like a baby, and getting brushed before bedtime. 

 

Dislikes - the vacuum (although he stands his ground!), loud noises, crowds of people, when his toys go under the couch. 

 

Good with older kids, interested in other cats, dogs unknown. He would enjoy another active kitty playmate to wrestle with or an older kid who will play with him in a quiet home. 

 

He is currently getting lots of love and playtime in his foster home, so check out his Instagram to see him in action -

Phoenix's adoption fee is $ 135.  If you are interested in meeting Phoenix, please fill out our Online Application today!

Phoenix is still available for adoption but might have other applicants. Learn more about our pet adoption process.

All pets adopted from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation include the following as part of their adoption fee:

  • Spay/neuter or a certificate for a low-cost spay/neuter when medically recommended
  • Microchip and registration, a permanent identification to reunite lost pets with their owners
  • Initial de-worming and flea and tick treatment
  • Age-appropriate testing for heartworm/FIV-FELV
  • Age-appropriate vaccines
  • Pre-adoption medical exam
  • A certificate for a free healthy pet exam at one of A.R.F.’s participating veterinarians within 7 days of adoption
  • Offer for a no-risk 30 day free trial with Trupanion pet medical insurance

If a cat or dog is on our website, it is still available for adoption but might have other applicants. If you find yourself interested in one of our animals, submit a no-commitment application immediately. Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal, but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions until your application has been approved in approximately 3-5 business days.

We do not schedule meetings until you have an approved application.

A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit all of our animals.  The majority of our dogs and cats are brought to adoption events by our volunteers. We invite everyone to come to our events, but we give priority to pre-approved applicants.

If you’re invited to meet an animal:

  • Plan to arrive early, as we cannot hold animals for any reason.
  • All human household members and dogs (if adopting another dog), must be present in order to be considered as a potential adopter.

Thank you for your interest and cooperation!
