About this Cat
All about Martini from her foster home! How would you describe the cat's general personality? Martini is a sweet old lady who loves sleeping and getting pet. She is very relaxed. She is really affectionate and people-oriented, but super chill at the same time -- she comes to check on me from time to time, and she likes to cuddle up at night, but otherwise she is happy to nap the day away. Does the cat enjoy being pet? Yes! If yes, on what parts of its body does the cat like to be pet? She loves getting scratched on the head and underneath her chin, and she loves getting brushed on her cheeks Are there any parts of its body that the cat does NOT like being touched? I did not discover any particular spots, but she can sometimes get overstimulated. She will gently nip or hiss when she's had enough. Does the cat come on your lap? No, but she often hangs out in the same room or beside me on the couch Does the cat like to be held? No Does the cat sleep in your bed? Yes! She sleeps in my bed every night Does the cat seek your attention? Yes Does the cat like to play? Not particularly -- she'll sometimes kick around a toy for a few seconds but I haven't seen any toys that hold her attention much What are the cat's favorite games and toys? She likes the small catnip fish, and she'll sometimes swat around a toy mouse How vocal is the cat? She's very vocal! What kinds of sounds does the cat make? She has a distinctive scratchy meow, like a rusty door hinge (or maybe a chain smoker?) I call it her "grandma meow". She meows at me a lot in the morning. She also sometimes meows very loudly from the other side of the house -- I will meow back at her and we can go back and forth for a while. She also has the loudest purr I've ever heard -- I can hear her halfway across the room! Does the cat scratch a scratcher? Yes Does the cat always use the litter box? Yes What food and frequency is the cat currently eating? Fancy Feast chicken feast, classic pate What is the cat's favorite treat? She likes Temptations and canned tuna. She really likes salami too but I only give her some once in a while, it's not very healthy Does the cat ever swat (claws in) at you? If so, under what circumstances? She has once or twice, when she was playing with the catnip toy and I reached in to pet her -- she seemed to want to play with my hands Has the cat ever scratched (claws out) you? No Does the cat ever nip (teeth without breaking skin) you? Once or twice Has the cat ever bitten you (breaking skin)? No To the best of your knowledge, how does the cat react to new people? Social? Fearful? She is generally fearful at first and will hide, but she can easily be bribed with Temptations Does that cat have any cute/quirky traits that aren’t covered by the previous questions? She purrs a LOT -- when she sleeps next to me she is constantly purring. She likes to sniff the ground and she will sniff and purr at the same time, so it sounds like a snorting noise. In your opinion, what is the best thing about the cat? Why should an adopter choose THIS cat to adopt? I would say her super loud purr. I think an adopter should choose Martini because she clearly has so much love to give -- she warmed up to me so much in just 2-3 months, and I am sure she will bond with someone wonderfully when she finds her home. What are the cat's challenges and how have you found to best manage them? Martini needs to take medication for her chronic constipation. It is a liquid med and the important thing is that she takes the entire dose. Giving it to her orally was difficult, but I figured out how to make her accept her food with the meds mixed in by splitting it into 2 daily doses and feeding on a regular schedule. She also should only eat wet food, preferably mixed with a bit of water. It takes a minute or two longer than usual to feed her because the food needs to be mixed each time, but it's totally manageable.

Adopt Martini and Receive Dogecoin
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, Martini's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Martini's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Martini, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Martini's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 Martini was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Martini’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Martini’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, Martini’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin 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!
