🐾 Piper, Colby Jack, Stitch and Lilo have all been fostered to adopt, with Stitch and Lilo going home together! Fostering to adopt allows kittens to find their homes sooner-in most cases they are too young to be spayed or neutered, and haven’t received their complete set of vaccinations. After their little surgeries are complete and they are all up to date on shots, they graduate to officially adopted!🐾

🐾 Tangerine, one year and nine months old, is a gorgeous brown and orange Torbie. She’s a shy girl who will warm up to you if you are patient and give her time to adjust. Once she begins to trust you, Tangerine is a lovely and affectionate cat. She loves being scratched on her head and under her chin. When she starts to do air biscuits, you will know that she is beginning to feel content and safe! She also loves playing with wand toys and enjoys the company of other cats. Tangerine will require a quiet home, and her person will need to be patient with her while she adjusts to her new surroundings. Once she overcomes her shyness, she is sure to be a wonderful companion! 🐾

SFAR Venice

St Francis Animal Rescue of Venice is a 501(c) limited admission, free roaming, no-kill cat Rescue. Established in 1994, we support 100+ cats and kittens on-site and 75 in short and long term foster care. 30-40 cats are available for adoption, with the remainder in our care permanently or in long term care. The shelter is funded by donations and a thrift store. We have a small team of employees to manage, medicate and clean. A dedicated volunteer team of approximately 50 individuals do whatever is necessary to keep our shelter and thrift store operational. Cats in our care receive medical treatment from local veterinarians. Foster care families care for kittens until they are ready for adoption and others help to socialize cats who otherwise would be considered unadoptable. We consider ourselves a rescue and try to focus on helping cats who, without rescue and care, would not be adoptable and would likely be euthanized.

We assist our community with education on cat behavior to keep cats in their homes. We provide referrals to other rescues to free or low cost spay and neuter clinics in the area. We support trapping for TNR programs. We provide donated food for feral colonies and furnish food to families and food banks so pets can remain in their homes.
