Samantha and Fantastic Negrito - SPECIAL CASE KITTENS ...
Poor Sammie and Negrito - brother and sister - came from a seriously sad situation. Their momma was found in an alley way after she had been tossed out of a home with her 5 babies. One was found hit by a car and thankfully a kind Samaritan realized there could be more and found her. Momma was fixed and rehomed and the babies put into a socialization program. But... they are still very shy and take a long time to adjust once they move into a home.
Details about Sammy:
10 months old. spayed & vaccinated
- Petite with GORGEOUS Yellow eyes
**VERY Food motivated !! She will eat just about anything you have in your hand. She will also take food from hands, will eat off a plate and silverware as if she is royalty.
** Will allow petting from head to tail while eating a high value food item such as “CHURU” or “Temptations” squeeze tubes.
** WILL jump on your lap if you have a high value food item
**WILL NOT ALLOW full body petting without a high value food award, but WILL ALLOW nose and check touching without a high value food item
** LOVES TOYS especially crinkle balls & anything with feathers. Occasionally plays “fetch”
** SMART, SHARP and highly inquisitive. Loves to sunbathe and watch birds from the window
** Can be vocal (churring, chirping, chattering)
** Gets along well with other cats
** Excellent with litterbox (uses BREEZE litter system, but has also used wheat litter)
** Enthusiastic scratcher – HIGHLY RECCOMMEND MULTIPLE CAT SCRATCHING OUTLETS !!
** Eating Taste of the Wild dry kibble from Auto-feeder - Especially Loves Weruva Canned Chicken (shreds) - Regularly eats up high (counter)
**NON-AGGRESSIVE, but SCARES EASILY and FEARFUL AT TIMES. Does best with slow, thoughtful movement around her
**DOES NOT ALLOW picking up, but WILL sleep on your head, along your chest or between your legs at night. Occasionally allows head scratches while you are laying in a prone position.
** DIFFICULT TO CATCH – Non-aggressive when caught, but extremely squirmy (4 legs in 8 different directions – think octopus !! ) Once calm, good for nail trims, ear cleaning, vaccines.
Both Sammy and Negrito would be best in a multi cat household where they can first adjust to the new cats and then slowly start to accept their human counterparts. No small children. Would make great buddy cats too and just need a long time chance to relax and find that person to be patient with them.

More about this rescue
Welcome to Rock N' Rescue! We are a 501c3 cat rescue (and a few dogs!) based in Westchester County NY. Our goal is not only to save the lives of kittens and cats coming from high kill shelters, but to raise awareness of many issues concerning animal welfare. We also have a therapy cat program, providing special cats deemed gentle enough to be able to relieve stress for individuals suffering from illness, PTSD and other stress/trauma in their lives. All of our cats must go to an indoor only home and are not allowed to be declawed (unless they are rescued already declawed). Adopters are encouraged to post happy tales here too!
We also are happy to do custom searches if you are looking for a particular breed/mixed breed of cat or dog!
