About this Cat
Prissy has been through A LOT. Her “family” got her at a bodega as a kitten but quickly gave her to a family member who didn’t want her. They viewed her as an inconvenience and did the absolute minimum to care for her. She never went to the vet. She had inconsistent food and water. When her “caretaker” got older, the family decided it was time for Prissy to go. They were ready to put her outside (she’d never been outside in her life). Someone got in touch with us and we rushed over and got her. She’s supposedly 9-11 years old. We think she’s younger than that, but she’s not a baby. She’s spent her life unwanted. When she came to us, she was (rightfully) mad at the world. We had to keep her in a crate to try to get her settled down, and she hissed and swatted and lunged at us. But we saw glimmers of the real Prissy: she’d roll over on her back and show us her belly. She started letting us pet her a little. Finally, we had some cats move out and were able to move her into her own room. Prissy was all over the map—she loved to play and accepted pets while eating but she was still swatting at us. Finally, she got into a scuffle with one of our resident cats and had a cut on her ear. We had taken her to the vet twice before but only for routine purposes. This time, she needed medical attention for her boo-boo and, for the first time in her life, someone took care of her. We got home from the vet and Prissy finally understood how much we love her. She climbed into her foster mom’s lap, relaxed, and purred. Ever since then, Prissy has finally blossomed into the sweet girl we knew she was inside. She climbs on top of you in bed. She jumps into your lap. She head butts. She really loves human company. She’s still getting used to understanding love—she gets overstimulated easily and will still forget herself and try to swat or bite in the excitement of the moment, so she shouldn’t go to a home with small children. She also does not get along with other animals—no cat or dog friends for Prissy! But with people - especially once she trusts them - Prissy is a loving, adorable girl. Prissy is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV. If you’re interested in this special little girl, please fill out an application at www.brooklynanimalaction.org/adoption-forms and designate Jennie AnneS as the rescuer. Thank you for your interest in a rescued kitty! All adoption fees and donations go to saving the next sweetie.

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