     Thanks to Rescue Me, we have the sweetest kitty boy in our lives. Mickey was wanted by many, but thanks to Debra Jambon, he found his way to us. Thank you Debra for your due diligence in vetting the perfect fit for Mickey. He has settled in as if he has always been here. You are such an angel for advocating the happiness of all involved. Mickey was the purr-fect addition to our family. We are totally in love with this guy and have begun competing to see who in the house can spoil him more. I also want to thank the family that loved him first. Thank you for helping to drive him halfway across the continent and into our hearts.

     Thank you so much for offering this site as a way to find forever homes for these sweet animals. My baby got rescued the day I posted him on Rescue Me. Thank you!

     Adorable Christian, who received record hits on our organization's Facebook site, was delivered to his new home by his caretaker just a couple of days after he was posted. His caretaker was so thrilled about this adoption, because it was close to where she lives and his new parents promised her that they will keep her posted on his integration and well being. Christian joined two 10-year old Male Sphynx boys (not related). His new human mom works from home, so there will be a readily available lap if he wants to sit on one. She loves her older Sphynx kitties but she was so thrilled to have a younger and more energetic version of this breed. We are sure they will all be amused and charmed by this little one of a kind character. Thanks, Rescue Me!

     What a dream come true to be able to help a kitty in my community in need. It seems that kittens always seem to find a place to call home, but not older cats. It was exciting to help a kitty that had lost it's human.

     Rescue Me was not only instrumental in helping me find my buddy, but when my circumstances changed and I was unable to care for him, Rescue Me provided an overwhelmingly positive response from all over the country. With the ability to contact all potential families and get to know their members and their home setups, I was able to find the perfect new home for Sundance, where he'll be loved, cuddled, and cared for the same way I always have. Even those who responded but ultimately weren't able to adopt Sundance were respectful, kind, and happy for my buddy. I couldn't have done this without Rescue Me.

     Nermal was adopted by a loving family that were able to help him with his problems! They were very experienced with the Sphynx breed and have had another rescue Sphynx before! They are close by and we are still able to check in from time to time! Thanks so much to Rescue Me for the chance to find a great home for him!

     Thanks to Rescue Me, Chico has found his forever home. I apologize to everyone I could not respond to, but I experienced true animal care and love by everyone who reached out.

     Thank you, Rescue Me, for helping us find a new forever home for Jude. There was a lot of interest and after narrowing it down, we found a great person who would be able to provide an awesome loving home.

     A week ago, I was looking online for information on adopting Sphynx cats. I saw there was one post. I called the phone number the next day. I was so happy to hear he hadn't been adopted! I arranged to drive today to adopt him. Now he's in his new home. Thank you, Rescue Me.

     Thank you so much for helping me find a loving, forever home for my sweet Yoda. Rescue Me was awesome and I was able to find her a home in less than 24 hours of posting here.

     My boys found a wonderful new home in less than a week, where it's quite clear they will be spoiled rotten!


Sender: Greta Jensen     Date: February 10, 2014 _
     I signed up for email alerts to rescue a Sphynx and or a Cornish/Devon Rex within a seven state radius. I received an alert about Roz. Roz's mom called and we talked on the phone for about an hour, and I knew that I really wanted to meet Roz because she sounded like a perfect fit for my family. Upon meeting Roz, I knew I could give her the love and forever home she needed. I want everyone out there that is trying to adopt a special breed to know that it takes time and you should be very familiar with the breed you are wanting to rescue. I feel like too many cats are given up because the first owner doesn't realize how much work goes into them.

     A very special thank you to the applicant who adopted Mala. After a very difficult application review process, as there were so many interested in adopting, I made a decision to connect one applicant with Mala based on many sensitive criteria. Thank you everyone who applied or connected with me with interest in adopting her. To anyone who's in search of a Sphynx, don't give up. Many appear on Rescue Me!, and please always ALWAYS rescue!

     We had two cats prior to adopting via Rescue Me! One cat had become withdrawn and independent, the other had become more co-dependent and needy. We knew we needed to find a companion for the second cat. Our youngest daughter is extremely allergic to most animals, though not affected by our cats. We were hesitant to introduce large amounts of new dander, afraid of an asthmatic reaction. With some research, we decided a Sphynx cat could be a great fit for our needs. I always think rescuing is the way to go when getting a new pet, so I subscribed via Facebook to Rescue Me's Sphynx Rescue updates. As soon as Kiara was posted, I knew she would be the perfect fit for our family. She is the same age as our other cats and very easy-going. She has been here a week and a half and is getting along well with everyone. The co-dependent cat has found her companion and the independent cat is happier now that she is not being followed around. The kids are smitten with their snuggly new kitty friend. We could not imagine our lives without Kiara. She was the missing piece of this family. Thank you, Rescue Me!

     When I posted little Isabella's picture on Rescue Me!, I never dreamed I would get the results I got. Within twenty minutes of posting, I was receiving so many candidates for this Sphynx Cat, I actually had to turn off my iPad for the night. Within two days, I received over 40 inquiries. I narrowed down these calls to the best six candidates. It then took another full day to talk to each caller and get a deeper understanding of the personalities and stabilties they each offered. I have now chosen the perfect new Mommy for Isabella, and I feel confident that Bella will live a full and happy life. Obviously I am thrilled that Rescue Me 'Rescued Me.' I don't know how my search could have been so fulfilling without such an organization.

     Rescue Me! Has allowed me to successfully rehome my two sphynx cats. After only being up for two days, Rescue Me! Has helped me get in contact with a rescue organization that will allow the cats to be properly cared for and rehomed to a good home.

     Wednesday and Igor, our two family sphynx cats were adopted thanks to this website. We had so many requests for them. We found a family in Cherry Hill NJ to adopt both of them. Thank you everyone!!!

     Piper was adopted. We got a couple of dozen of requests for Piper. She just went to her new home today. Hopefully she will transition well with her new family. Thank you for your service. I love that it allows for breed specific and national searches. People were able to contact me and correspond through this site. It can be a difficult process when trying to find your pet a home. Thank you for eliminating some of the difficulty and providing this as a free service. If I ever had to list another pet for adoption, I would use this site.

     Thank you so much!!! I was so exhausted trying to find my cat a good home without having to board him or put him in a cage at some humane society. Thanks to this site and Jeff, I was able to find my little man a loving home within an hour of my posting, unlike my other options which had me hunting for the last two months with no hope. I love the site setup, options and the love that was put into this. Thanks again!!!!

     Hi, Jeff, Jetson was just adopted by a wonderful family! My experience with RescueMe was amazing! A fabulous site, very easy to use with quick results. I posted my ad in the morning and before lunch I had my Elf Cat adopted. I feel very confident that he went to a great home. Thank you very much for having a site like this. I was afraid and nervous that I couldn't find Jetson a home, but your site made it easy and now I can sleep well at night knowing he's with a family who'll love him as much as I do! Gail

     Thank you for your amazingly well organized web site and system for adoptions. I was torn to have to adopt my sphynx out, I needed the best family for him. Within 24 hours I was reviewing hundreds of caring families wanting to adopt. It was so easy for me to review and respond to applicants, all the info was right there. I feel very good about my choices thanks to the great communication of your web site. Although my heart was sad, I know I made the right choice for him. Thank you! -Sarah

     Fritz found an incredible home in a matter of three hours. We couldn't have been happier with Rescue Me. Only problem (which isn't really a problem) is the overwhelming response of phone calls and emails, etc. Thank you so very much for your service. I think Fritz is now living better than me!!!!

     Bethany went home with her new mommy tonight. :) I was very torn, but Bethany was a rescue and I never intended to keep her. I fell in love with her but my other kitties did not. Rescue me helped me find an excellent home for her. Thank You.

     Hi Jeff, All too often individuals purchase exotic animals or exotic breeds as pets for the novelty factor to impress friend and family, but once the honeymoon is over the novelty wears off it's a different matter all together. My wife and I have two Sphynx cat's namely Bella & Zuri and decided to rescue Torro, give him a good home were he can live the rest of his natural life with love and affection including companionship from his own breed. Cheers, Colin
