FAQ - READ ME FIRST
If you’re ready to adopt a Miss Dixie’s kitten, here’s your chance to see if you could be their match.
Please thoroughly read the following information about adopting a Miss Dixie’s kitten before applying.
- Our adoption screening and processing can be broken down into three main steps: the application, the interview, and the meet & greet.
- The application portion is fairly straightforward. Please be as open, honest and thorough as possible. Our main objective for the application is to get a good general sense of your home, what your current resident animals are like, and additional pertinent information (like current veterinarian).
- After you have submitted an application, a member of our team should reach out within 24 hours regarding your application status.
- Next is the interview portion. If your home is deemed a potential match for our kitties, you will be sent a link to schedule your interview/virtual home check! All interviews are conducted with Zoom or FaceTime and are a required step to complete an adoption application.
- Finally, when your application is approved, we will reach out to schedule your meet & greet/adoption day!
- *Our adoption process is not a same-day ordeal. Most applications take a minimum of a week to move from application submission to finalizing adoption details. We take our time to ensure every kitty is placed in the home best suited for them.
- *Kitties are not placed in homes on a first-come-first-serve basis. Priority is given to earliest applications as long as the home is a good match for the kitten or cat. We choose the best home, not the first home!
- *We reserve the right to deny any applicant for any reason.
- *All applicants must live within an 8hr drive of Seneca, SC to be considered for adoption (except in regards to specific cases where drive radius has been extended).
All Miss Dixie’s kittens come with health records, are dewormed, vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and microchipped.
Please note that due to the high volume of inquiries about each kitten, you may not receive a response. We encourage you to also check out the adoptable cats and kittens at your local animal shelter.
Meet Dory
Meet Dory!
Although we are a kitten rescue, we also have a soft spot for our senior cats. Dory was found, in the pouring raining, huddled up next to a building. After taking one look at her, it was clear she needed help asap.
Dory came in severely underweight, sick and had a severely matted coat. It was clear she used to be loved as she is the sweetest girl to walk this earth, but had suffered either years of neglect. Soon after getting her into our care, Dory was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, arthritis and a grade III heart murmur. Thankfully kidney disease can be managed through diet, and she has taken to her new food like a champ.
This sweet girl is looking for a home to spend the rest of her life, even if it's a short time, in comfort. She's a simple girl really: she loves pets, butt scratches, a heated bed, some good food and a human to keep her company. Because of her arthritis, she needs an extra large litterbox that she can maneuver easily. She doesn't particularly care for toys. She really just wants a warm home, someone to love and a fluffy bed to rest.
We know finding the right home for Dory will be difficult. She is not a young kitten nor is she an older gal without any baggage. She has had a rough life and deserves a chance at her own happy ever after.
We are seeking a home willing to help Dory adjust to life indoors, a home that can provide her the special food she needs to keep her healthy and someone who understands that Dory loves love, but she's still figuring out how to give and receive it in a way that feels safe for her.
If you live within a 3hr drive of Seneca, SC and are opening to learning more about this girl, please fill out an application and we would love to schedule an interview to chat with you about her.
