Description

---

Sir Smudge is quite the complex fellow. He may seem timid and indifferent, but he's merely taking the time to study and become familiar with his environment. Once you've earned his trust he will gladly let you scratch under his chin. If you speak softly and shower him with compliments (and treats), he may even give you access to his glorious belly. Smudge requires patience and anyone willing to endeavor will surely win his heart.

Smudge was rescued his mom, Graycie, and four siblings.   Smudge is Smokey’s twin brother. He is a great guy, just a little timid and shy at first.  Therefore, he would do best in a quiet household with people who understand shy cats.  

Interested in adopting Smudge, his brother Smokey, or one of our other wonderful kitties? Please visit www.VivaLosGatosCatRescue.org and complete our no-obligation, online adoption application from any PC or mobile device. Viva Los Gatos is based in Cleveland, Ohio, and adopts to residents of Northeast Ohio. Adoptions to residents outside this area are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Adoption process

We like to think of ourselves as matchmakers for cats and humans. Follow these three simple steps to make to make finding your perfect pet a fun and rewarding experience.

APPLY
Complete our no-obligation Adoption Application. This is how we learn about you and your household, and identify our adoptable kitties that best meet your needs and environment.

EXPLORE
A Viva Los Gatos Adoption Coordinator will review your application and contact you to better understand your preferences. This is also your chance to ask questions about specific cats on your short list of adoptables. If we approve your Adoption Application, you will meet prospective cats and decide which are the best fit for you and your household.

ADOPT
If you decide to move forward with adoption, you will sign an Adoption Agreement. By signing, you agree to provide appropriate nurturing, a healthy environment, and ongoing veterinary care for your Viva Los Gatos kitty.

ADOPTION FEES
Kittens up to one year: $100 or 2 for $165
Cats one year or older: $80

Submitting an application is not a binding agreement to adopt. It is simply part of the process leading to a final adoption decision.

Viva Los Gatos reserves the right to decline any adoption.

Shelter location

You can meet our kitties at any of the adoption events listed on our website. If your Adoption Application has been approved and you’d like to meet a particular cat, we are happy to schedule a private appointment at a mutually convenient time and location.
