Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Pumpernickel is a fluffy little tux kitten with the quietest (so far) personality of his brothers. He's very playful with his siblings and particularly loves playing in his kitty tunnel/behind the bookcases and wresting with his brothers. He's not particularly loud nor needy, just a well rounded quieter kitten. In addition to his 3 brothers, he lives with two other fosters under a year (Peapod & Lulubelle) and also a 65lb dog sister, who doesn't faze him at all - so if you have a friendly dog, he'll likely fit right in. He also has an uncanny ability to appear absolutely silly and goofy in pictures - each one is funnier than the next. Sometimes he's peering over the stairs in the background, sometimes looking at something with his head cocked to the side, sometimes just had the most ridiculous expression on his fluffy face. So, if you're in the market for a playful tux who can fill your photo frames with goofiness, he might be right for you.
Behaviorally and socially, it’s best to adopt kittens in pairs, or into a home with a compatible playful cat. Kittens really need a feline playmate in their forever home…and then they can get to play, and snuggle while you're not home, wrestle with each other instead of with your ankles, and grow up with an always-available companion. Bored cats can become destructive cats. If you are only interested in adopting a single kitten, and you’re home most of the day, and able to spend interactive time with a kitten, we may consider adopting out a single kitten. We usually prefer that they be 4 months or older. But each application will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Many of our kitten litters may also be able to be mixed ‘n matched to make a pair if they are not particularly bonded with a sibling. Each foster home knows the kittens' personalities best, and we follow their recommendations for single placements or mix/matching.
Pumpernickel's approximate date of birth is 9-2-23, and his adoption fee of $195 includes: vet exam, Feleuk/FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, routine dewormings, microchip and neuter.
