When we or any other rescue or shelter adopt an animal out ( in our case cats and kittens) we all hope we are sending them off to their forever home and that it is a truly forever home. Adopting an animal should be a lifelong commitment.  In Darkmode’s case , he wasn’t that lucky :    We trapped this young man in Trenton (we think he is around 3 now) last June. It was really obvious he had a hard time on the street and had likely been beaten up by other cats (he has some scarring on his head), as a result he doesn’t like other cats.    We were thrilled that he got adopted to a home last September with no other cats and were hopeful he was going off to his “happily ever after”. We were contacted by his adopters , 10 months after he was adopted, that they had purchased a home in a community that does not allow pets, so if we didn’t take him back immediately, they were just going to dump him in a shelter. This wasn’t a “had to move situation” due to a hardship, this was a deliberate home purchase with no thought about the cat they adopted.   So now this young man ,who has already been through so much, needs what is likely his third home. He loves every person he meets the moment he meets them. Despite how his luck has been his three years of life, he has maintained his sunny, friendly and affectionate personality.  We’re looking for a person/people to adopt Darkmode who will truly love him and consider him part of the family. Besides loving and taking care of him, Darkmode’s only other requirement is that he be an only cat. He deserves the best home ever. He also wants everyone to know he is much handsomer in person, his pictures don't do him justice.  If you'd like to meet this cat or think this cat would be a good match for your family, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.trentoncats.org/adoption-questionnaire/ and let your references know someone will be contacting them soon. All our cats are neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed and flea-treated, tested for FIV/FeLV, and microchipped prior to adoption. Thanks for opting to adopt!
