About Midge

Adoption Fee: $50

SPECIAL NEED: It was discovered, at time of spay, that Midge has a grade 5 of 6 heart murmur which is pretty strong.  That means she could need an EKG or medication down the road, and when she has any type of surgery, they must be cautious with anestesia.  This is likely early sign of heart disease which could mean she leaves many years or many months, we just don't know.  As of now, she seems happy and healthy and as with all our pets, we hope that will last for years to com.    

Tortie (tortoiseshell) kitties are known for being strong-willed and spicy, and Midge is a perfect example. This beautiful lady has a big personality. She often starts the morning with a strong case of the zoomies, while she impatiently waits for breakfast. For a petite kitty, she has a great big voice, especially at meal times, which in her mind is every moment of the day. She is so food-driven, she may literally bite the hand that feeds her, but luckily it doesn't hurt a bit. She loves watching birds and squirrels out the window or cozying up with her humans for some face scratches and pets. At night, she'd love to settle into bed for the night (after a few minutes of enthusiastically rubbing her face against yours) and may even rest her little head on your pillow while she sleeps. She doesn't complain about not being allowed in the bedroom though, if that's your preference. Midge is sassy, energetic, demanding, hilarious and also full of love. Midge has gotten along very well with another cat in her foster home, even becoming playmates, but gets defensive with aggressive cats. She has not been introduced to dogs, but was observed to become upset at the sound of barking. She is not the ideal cat for a family with young children because she can sometimes become overstimulated during play or petting.

As with all cats available for adoption here, she is spayed, up to date on her vaccines, microchipped, FELV/FIV tested (she is negative), been given dewormer and started on monthly flea preventative.  

Apply to adopt to schedule a meet and greet with Midge.  She is hanging out in a foster home right now while she awaits her forever family!

Bagel is one of the more shy kittens of his litter, but he’s gaining confidence by the day. He’s still shy when you approach to pick him up, but once you’re holding him securely, this little buff boy purrs like no other kitten! His foster mom nicknamed him Rumbles. Once he starts purring, he keeps it going and going…  while eating, playing, and even using the litter box. He’s a funny, super-cute kitten who loves to play chase and wrestle with his sister, Breadstick. When you first bring him home, it will be best to place him in a quiet, small space with no hiding places… just give him a cozy bed and toys – he LOVES toys! – and hold him often so he feels the love of his new people. It won’t take long for him to settle in and show you his full, sweet personality. As with most kittens, he will do best when adopted with another playful kitten unless you have a friendly playful cat for him to play with already. Consider bringing Bagel and Breadstick home together!  Get $50 off the combined adoption fee when adopting a pair of kittens.  Meet Breadstick and Bagel at PetSmart, Bleachery Blvd from 6-8pm, Wednesday and 12-4pm, Saturday during our regular adoption event or 12-3pm, Sunday during our bonus event. You can also apply online to adopt to schedule a meet and greet another time. They are neutered, up to date on their vaccines, FELV/FIV tested, microchipped, given a few rounds of dewormer and started on monthly flea preventative.   show less

My name is Bailey.  I am an adorable young man.  If you want a lap kitty who wants to be petted, wants love and comes running to you for pets, I am your man.  I have been around my cat foster sister, she plays nicely and likes to snuggle with me.  You see I am FIV+ which makes me special.  You see I can be around other cats as long as they play nice with me (no fightiing that might cause a deep bite wound). I am, after all, a lover.  I arrived with an ulcer from an old eye injury and my eye is still healing, but the vet says I am fine now after they gave me some medicine for awhile. I think it makes me look mysterious. The doctor says I currently have limited vision out of that eye but it may continue to improve over time.  I also have shown a lot of relaxed and friendly interest in the polite dogs that have visited the store while I am hanging out there.  I think I would really like to play with a nice doggy!   Bailey is FIV+.  This means he has a compromised immune system.  He can still live with other cats as long as there is no fighting which causes deep bite wounds.  He did well with dogs when he was outdoors, surviving on his own until he came into our care.  He would follow the neighbor's dogs as they went on their daily walks, and he was friends with everyone around as long as they were friendly and calm.  Someone there would have adopted him, but there are restrictions of one pet per home in the retirment community he came from.  He is ready for a home where there are no other pets and lots of love and snuggle time from his people.  Apply to adopt to schedule a meet and greet with this handsome fella.  He is currently in a foster home while he awaits his purrfect forever family! All cats have been spayed/neutered, microchipped, FELV/FIV tested, are current on vaccines, been given dewormer and started on flea preventative.    show less

Attention: This is a courtesy posting only! This pet is NOT available through Mountain Pet Rescue.  Please do NOT contact MPR for information about the pet or apply to adopt this pet on the MPR website.  Contact Noahilles13@gmail.com (preferred) or 828.489.2314 for more information or to adopt the pet. Hey there! So you're looking for a pup?!  Well my name is Bear, and I am looking for a new home. I am a 2-year-old Black mouth Cur (I think), about 65 pounds, spayed, chipped and up to date on all my vaccines. Even though I am not allowed to walk without a leash yet, I do mostly well on a leash when I know where I am. Sometimes things distract me and I get excited, or even scared when I’m not familiar with the trail…hm, maybe that’s why I always need a leash. Either way, I love my daily 1.5 mile walks, and running around my ½ acre backyard; this really helps get my energy out. I don’t want to be picky, but I know a similar situation would be a must-have for a potential new family. Speaking of family, I was adopted when I was 5 months by a family with 2 young boys. I loved the big guy since the car ride home, but it took me a little longer to warm up to everyone else. I think I was really just nervous and scared being so young, because now I usually warm up to most people pretty fast. I play well with the boys, even though I can get a little too excited and have a tendency to knock into them or what they’re working on. I also like other dogs, but similarly, can be on the rougher side. I think it would be important that my new home does not have smaller children or dogs, but I would love another big dog to play with! I should confess that sometimes my love can require a lot more in return. I actually have separation anxiety when the big guy is away, and I can be a bit protective. I usually settle down when he leaves, or when I meet new people, but it can be a little hard for me at first. Really, I just need a lot of love and attention, with a bit of rough housing. Oh right, speaking of housing…I am quite proud of how well I learned to live in a house! Although I can make a mess tearing up my toys, I do not chew shoes or couches, and I always do my business outside! I also learned some basic commands (and a few not so basic) after we found the right training program for me. To be honest though, I may have forgotten a few. You see, I live in a more free roaming house, and the folks here are not really able to keep up with my training. I know in my heart that someone with good training experience, especially with ‘spirited’ pups like me, would be the best match.   Also, there is just a little bit of medical/dietary info you should know; a little while ago I started taking some joint health supplements after I was having some troubles walking. A surgeon had said that I don’t need surgery, but instead if I take these supplements for the rest of my life, I should be fine…so far so good! I also really like raw meats added to my kibble, especially ground turkey or salmon (I think the salmon really helps my joints, too!). I know this and the supplements are little more than most people are used to, but I would love it if you could afford me this…I really don’t require much more than that, not even treats all the time! Just one at bedtime! Well, I really hope you are considering bringing me into your family. Even though I love my current family, I think we are just at different stages in our lives that can make things difficult. Just to recap, I know it would be best if you could devote a decent amount of time and love to me, and use your training experience to keep me busy and on track. I look forward to seeing you in your big yard, and where we will always be walking! Please contact the big guy when you're ready to meet me, or have any questions.

Attention: This is a courtesy posting only! This pet is NOT available through Mountain Pet Rescue.  Please do NOT contact MPR for information about the pet or apply to adopt this pet on the MPR website.  Contact Shannon at sgillenwinney@gmail.com or 470-439-9316 for more information or to adopt the pet. Darcy is a good girl with dreams of being your best girl! She's just might be the most Asheville dog there is. Planning on going hiking this weekend? She'd love to adventure with you! Know a swimming hole that's your best kept secret? Let her splash around in it (and she'll be sure not to spoil its location to anyone!) Meeting up with friends at a brewery? She'll lay at your feet while turning on the charm, so that anyone who passes by is sure to give her a compliment! Darcy is super-friendly and has never met a stranger in either dog or human form, and she's likely less than 2 years old and weighs 45 lbs curently. She spent her first 4 months in Asheville living at Happy Tails Country Club for Dogs, where she mastered the art of playing with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperments. Since being moved into her foster home, she's learning her house manners and getting lots and lots of belly rubs (her absolute favorite!) Her ideal home would be with an active owner in search of an adventure companion - one that she can snuggle up with to relax afterwards. While she'd probably love being an only dog and soaking up all of the attention, she would do just as well (if not better) having another playful dog at home. She is crate-trained, housebroken, and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Thank you so much for helping us find Darcy a home! If you have any other questions, feel free to contact Shannon at sgillenwinney@gmail.com or 470-439-9316. show less
