About this Cat
We think Linus is about a five-year-old kitty who came into foster in late winter of 2021. He is pretty laid back, but sometimes chases toys or plays with ones that he can hold and kick. He gets along with the resident adult cats but would be happiest as an only cat or perhaps living with an older nonaggressive cat. He is not all that fond of being held, but he rubs and rubs and rubs some more against his humans when he is feeling happy. Linus has diabetes insipidus, a non-life-threatening disorder that is relatively rare in cats. His body does not produce vasopressin/ADH, a hormone that helps his kidneys keep water in his body (nothing to do with insulin or his sugar levels). His foster mom gives him subcutaneous injections of synthetic hormone twice a day. Anybody can learn to do this; once Linus trusts someone, the injections are easy. Without these injections, he spends most of the day drinking and then of course urinating all that he drinks (we know this because he was not diagnosed and treated until he came into foster), not a good life for a cat. He and his foster mom have come to an understanding about the injections. He gets half of a squeezable-type tube treat (he loves these!) each time he gets jabbed. Diabetes insipidus will not shorten Linus' life, and he can miss an occasional injection with no significant effect, but he will need to be treated for the rest of his life. If you'd like to meet Linus or think Linus 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!

Adopt Linus and Receive Dogecoin
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, Linus's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Linus's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Linus, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Linus's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 Linus was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Linus’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Linus’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, Linus’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin 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!
