DooDoo Voodoo Pet Odor And Stain Remover Pets Available

Welcome To Our Pets Available Page

Shown here are needy animals currently residing in our Indianapolis rescue facility and awaiting their forever homes. They've had regular vet care, eat only the best veterinary-quality foods and drink purified water. We have a great facility for them, but it's nothing like the sense of belonging they'd get from living in a real home. We and our part-time caretakers are only in the facility in the morning and evening, so these deserving cats don't get nearly the degree of human interaction they'd prefer. Please consider adopting one of these needy animals.

To receive an adoption application by fax or e-mail, please e-mail eric@doodoovoodoo.com or call 317-356-6733.

	This is Rudy, a fellow with a few years on him, but with a lot of love left to give. Rudy had been adopted by an elderly woman, but when she fell ill, and he needed expensive radiation treatment for a thyroid disease, he came back to us. Now that he's had the thyroid treatment, he's happy and healthy, but would rather live with you than in our rescue facility with a bunch of other cats. He's a quiet kitty who doesn't get into mischief. Could you provide his forever home?
	This awesome picture is of a mom and her 4 offspring we rescued from a marina near the reservoir we live by. The picture was shot when we first brought the cats home and before they loosened up...a bit. They're still not lapcats by any means, but they aren't clinging to each other like they used to, and they'll come around for brushing and petting. They might not "show" as well as we'd like, but they're nice kitties who would warm up in a real home. All are healthy. There are 4 girls (Abby, Carmen, Daphne and Eileen) and one boy (Benny). Could you adopt one or two...or the whole bunch? They love being around each other...obviously.
	JimBob is an insulin-dependent diabetic, large fellow who would do best as an only pet or with one of our other (submissive) cats he is familiar with. (His good buddy is Zorra, shown below.) He enjoys lapsitting and definitely never turns down an opportunity to be brushed. He was found alongside a busy road and was friendly from the get-go. He had a home for a short time, but the husband got jealous of all the time JimBob was spending with the wife, so JimBob's back with us. He wants & deserves a good home again. Here's another picture of JimBob.
	This is Harley, a very large, long-haired male who came to us after being thrown out of an alcoholic's rented apartment when the alcoholic's two boa constrictors opted not to eat Harley. Honest. He was living outside and was in sorry condition. A good grooming and some vet care, including neutering, put him back into tip-top shape and he's ready for his forever home. Harley is unbelievably friendly, loves human interaction and is currently so large he gets stuck in the pet door going out the the screened porch. He gets along well with other cats.
	Sally (top, when she was a kitten, and here 3-6-04) & Zorra (bottom, when she was a kitten) are 4 year-old sisters with tortoise-shell markings who were found eating out of a dumpster. Both can be quite timid until they get to know you---and perhaps even then!---and would do well in quiet homes without small children or other pets. They really like to be brushed and are very pretty girls. If you have a quiet home and a big heart and are in the market to help a couple of needy kitties, Sally and/or Zorra might just be purrfect for you. See another, more recent, pic of Sally here. See extra Zorra pics here & here. Update: Sally & Zorra have become a lot more receptive to petting lately. Sally & Zorra have both been arching their backs while we pet them and often will raise their chins to facilitate our scratching 'em, so we're encouraged that these two are showing signs of coming around, human interaction-wise. Sally often "flops around like a fish" while getting brushed.
	This is Phoebe (top) and Zoe (bottom), a two-sister team we rescued. They're never far from each other and would do well in a home together. They will sometimes beat up on submissive cats, so they'd likely not do well being introduced to a home where there are existing pets. They love petting and brushing and are healthy girls.
	This is Marco. As you see in the picture, one of his pupils is larger than the other. This is because he has a brain abnormality. In fact, one vet told us Marco would never be right and should be euthanized. Glad we didn't; Marco has turned out to be very happy, healthy otherwise and well adapted. He loves other cats and, even though he can barely see, gets around quite well in our rescue facility. Marco deserves a real home, though, and urges you to consider him.
	Blackie and Tiger's story is an interesting one. In December, 2003, Blackie & Tiger were brought to the I-CAN Feline Spay/Neuter Clinic by their mom, 81-year-old Katherine Louise Stapp. Their surgeries went fine, they tested negative for FIV/FeLV and they were vaccinated. Mrs. Stapp didn't drive, so she had to take a cab to and from the clinic. She didn't have pet carriers, so we loaned her two of ours. She was spry, well-groomed, well-dressed and carried herself with an air of quiet sophistication. On Tuesday, March 2, 2004, we received a call from Mrs. Stapp's attorney notifying us that she had committed suicide and had left a note asking him to contact us to see if we would take care of her cats. We were stunned, to say the least. So, off to Mrs. Stapp's we went to collect Mrs. Stapp's cats. When we went to the home, it was in quite a state of filth, so we couldn't find Blackie or Tiger among all the rubbish. We set a humane trap with some food in it and we waited. It took a couple days, but finally Blackie was humanely trapped. His brother, Tiger, took a few more days and never did get trapped. I had to go to the home a couple times to try to find him and when I finally did, he turned into a "flying cat" and nearly took my head off. The capture didn't take long, but I was almost wearing Tiger on my forehead after he leaped at me from the shelf in a closet. Blackie was quite timid after he was trapped and while he was at the spay/neuter clinic, where he again tested negative for FIV and Feline Leukemia. Once we got him home, though, he warmed up nicely over the course of three days. Now he comes to us most times we call him and he loves to be petted and brushed. He had a couple injured patches above his eyes that bloodwork showed to be from hemobartonella (the bacterium that causes cat scratch fever). They patches weren't bad and they healed up after a course of antibiotics. Blackie had a couple hernias, which we had our veterinarian repair. I've slept on an air mattress with these boys and they seemed to enjoy the company. Blackie is quicker to socialize with you on the mattress than Tiger is, but Tiger seems to trust Blackie's instincts and will follow Blackie's lead (even though Tiger's older and larger than Blackie). Tiger's much more trusting of humans when they're lying down or sitting on the floor than when they're walking toward him, so in an adoption visit he might not "show" as well as you might like (this may be an understatement, but he's quite worthy of your affection). As with so many other timid cats we've rescued over the years, though, we believe these two guys will only get more and more comfortable around people as time goes on. Naturally, they'd likely not do well in a raucous home with small children or dogs. The boys are really bonded to each other, so we'd love to see them go to a lifelong home together, especially given what they went through with Mrs. Stapp.
	The three cats shown to the left are, top to bottom, Jake, Minnie and Mickey. They belonged to my father, who passed away unexpectedly on February 2, 2007. Minnie is Mickey's mom and has only one eye. Jake is a very large cat who currently weighs 30 pounds (he was less in the picture). He desperately needs to be in a home of his own. In fact, I'd even go so far as to say that it might save his life. He has become morbidly obese. We are willing to subsidize Jake's veterinary care, food, etc. Please contact us right away if you have room in your home and your heart for this big guy. Minnie and Jake are friendlier than Mickey, but even Mickey loves to be petted, brushed and held (once in awhile, at least). All have had their vet care, including worming and, in the case of Jake and Mickey, shaving to get rid of their matted fur and let their skin heal from the flea bites they had. These poor kitties are really missing their dad (my dad) and we'd love to find them a real home where they can spend more time with humans. They're living in our rescue facility with our other rescued cats, but it's sure not at all like when they lived with their dad and were able to spend so much time with him. If you have room in your home and your heart for these special kitties, please contact us. They deserve your strongest consideration, given all they've been through lately.
