About this Cat
Gus is a male tabby cat that the vets estimate is 1.5-2 years old. We found him living outside with a ruptured eye about 9 months ago. He had surgery to remove that eye as it was beyond repair, followed by dental surgery to remove all of his teeth due to severe dental disease and stomatitis. He's neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. He's had excellent and extensive vet care, so he's in good shape now. He does have FIV, however because he has no teeth the vets assure us he cannot transmit this to other cats and we've had him around ours for months. He's clear of all other diseases and is overall very healthy, but will require the normal kitty checkups and such. He's incredibly sweet, cuddly, and social. Kind of more dog than cat, a best buddy. He's generally well mannered, no aggression, doesn't scratch or bite. He needs to be an indoor only cat, but likes a harness and leash. Seeking a loving home as we are unable to keep him permanently. After all this time of knowing and loving him, we feel the best home for him would probably be a home where he is the only cat, or maybe a home with another male cat that would stand up to him and hopefully play with him, or even with a dog. We think he would probably be great with children too, but haven't had the opportunity to test that.

Adopt Gus and Receive Gus's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Gus's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.

How will Gus receive the contribution?
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Gus, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Gus's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Gus was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Gus’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
What happens to unclaimed funds?
We want the Gus’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Gus’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
