About this Cat
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! BASIL was born in a foster's home. Her family came from a horrible situation. There were 10 cats saved. 6 of them were pregnant (one of them being BASIL's mom). They were all living in a yard where they were occasionally allowed in a garage in Moreno Valley, California. Most of the cats were all named after SUPER HEREOS, except BASIL's mom and aunt (ELENORE and MOLLY MOO). It seemed fitting since they were all basically surviving and being fed scrapes, fighting other cats and dogs. They were living off a dangerous street where people were actually poisoning the cats. So BASIL has never known the street life. She has lived a nice pampered life. The two sister moms raised their kittens together so we really don't know if ELENORE or MOLLY MOO is her mom. Our beautiful girl has not lost her love. We got her adopted at 6 months and her family returned her after a year and half because they were "supposably" allergic to her. We were so disappointed that she had to have her heart broken like that. Meet BASIL, a young feline filled with sweetness and curiosity. Her friendly nature makes her the perfect companion for anyone seeking a loyal friend. BASIL's independence means she is comfortable exploring her surroundings, but she always returns for a cuddle or a playful game. Her goofy antics and gentle demeanor will bring laughter and calm to your days. With her smart, energetic spirit, BASIL is always ready for a new adventure. Her funny, playful side will keep you entertained, while her cuddly, loyal personality will make you feel loved. BASIL is more than just a shelter cat; she is a companion, a friend, and a source of endless joy. Adopt BASIL and experience the unique bond of a human-feline friendship. Her love and loyalty are waiting for you. BASIL is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / ABYSSINIAN MIX. She is about 3 years and 2 months old. She is good with cats and dogs. She has lived with young children.

100% of BASIL's Dogecoin balance will be sent to whoever adopts BASIL.
Adopt BASIL 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, BASIL'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 BASIL's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the BASIL, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming BASIL'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 BASIL was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, BASIL’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 BASIL’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, BASIL’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!
