My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tigger is a beautiful 4 month old gray tabby kitten. She loves to play, especially with strings and wand toys. Very energetic as kittens go, and she is very curious about everything! She loves to be petted and will reward you with rubs and rolls and wonderful purrs. She loves to curl up in her soft fluffy kitty bed or lay perched up high on her kitty tree. She needs a little time adjusting to new situations, but once she is comfortable she is an affectionate and loving purring machine. Tigger would make an awesome addition to a loving home willing to spoil her with the attention she loves! Tigger is currently in a foster home. If you are interested in meeting her, please contact Lori at catquestions@adoptpetshelter.org.


THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE ADOPTING A KITTEN:

1. The average life span of a cat is sixteen to twenty years. Will your life style continue to accommodate a cat for the next twenty years?

2. While your house may be child proof, is it kitten proof? Clothes washers, dryers, refrigerators and toilets can be hazardous or deadly to kittens.

3. It is natural for a cat to gravitate to high places such as counter-tops, tables, etc.. The best way to alleviate such problems is to provide your kitten with a cat tree.

4. Cats have a natural need to scratch. Providing a good scratching post or cat tree along with regular nail trims is a great way to protect your furniture.

5. Folks who have not been exposed to cats may be allergic. Ask a counselor about the pillow test to check for allergies.

6. Active children may not mix well with small kittens. You may want to consider an older kitten or adult cat.

7. Young kittens (under five months of age) are very active and would benefit from the company of another kitten or young cat to keep them busy and develop normal cat social skills. We typically require that kittens be adopted in pairs.
