About this Cat
This sassy, friendly little porker came to CCR because he'd suffered some sort of major injury out in the wilds of a Nashville neighborhood. He was treated at the local trap-neuter-release clinic for a large open wound on his neck and chest. Because the TNR clinic isn't designed as a long-term care center, his ear was tipped (marking him as a neutered stray) and he was going to be put back outside despite the open wound. CCR stepped forward and secured a foster home where he could safely recover. And recover he did. In fact, he thrived. Based on an inside joke in the foster's home, he's been dubbed 'The Warden' (Warden for short). He's gained four pounds and his wound has completely healed with no visible scarring. Even though Warden was badly injured and, more than likely, in pain, his foster human quickly discovered that Warden is exceptionally friendly (particularly for a cat rescued from the streets). He demands to be picked up and held; he loves getting attention and he's incredibly sweet. He also takes medication and other 'hassling' (i.e., nail trimming, minor grooming) without much complaining or struggling. He absolutely appreciates being a pampered indoor cat. While he likes having his foster human's attention, he's indifferent about having feline or canine attention. He doesn't pick fights with the other cats or the dog in the house; he just doesn't care that they're there (though, sometimes, he'll hiss at or swat at the resident dog, who is a large hound, just to make sure the dog knows who the top dog is). He currently does not insist on being a lap cat, but that might be due to circumstances in the foster's home (namely: other cats claim the foster's lap as their own), but he will insist on being picked up and cuddled. Warden would do just fine either as a solo cat or in a home with other cats or with a dog/multiple dogs. However, if you are searching for a companion for another cat (or for a dog), he's likely not the best choice, even though he's adorable; he's just more human-oriented than he is feline- or canine-oriented (who can blame him? the other felines and the dog don't feed him!). Consider making Warden part of your home - he will show you his appreciation every day! (Warden is difficult to photograph because once he realizes he has your attention, he wants to be petted, so he approaches the camera - hence lots of sleeping/just woken up photos.) To be considdered for Warden's forver family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at [email protected]. APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. (Warden is currently in Tennessee but can be transported north upon adoption.)

Adopt KITTY WARDEN and Receive KITTY WARDEN'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, KITTY WARDEN's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is KITTY WARDEN's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the KITTY WARDEN, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming KITTY WARDEN'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 KITTY WARDEN was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, KITTY WARDEN’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the KITTY WARDEN’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, KITTY WARDEN’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!
