My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Jacob is a 9 month old tuxedo kitten that was found with his momma and litter mates at a very young age. He was the oddball from the start as the only black and white kitten, while his brothers were all orange. As Jacob grew, his fosters noticed another unique quirk - his snorty and wheezing breathing. Jacob often becomes short of breath when he runs around or purrs extra hard. This sure doesn’t stop him! He may be wheezy, but he certainly has lots of kitten energy and he is full of zoomies and playful behavior.

Jacob was seen several times by a few vets to diagnose his condition and discuss treatment. He has suspected laryngeal paralysis in one of his vocal chord flaps. Our vets do not believe his condition warrants removal of the vocal chord and have not recommended any ongoing care or maintenance. He will always be snorty, but that's part of his charm! 

Jacob has been socialized with other cats and should adjust well to dogs as he is very welcoming to everyone. He loves having furry companions to play and groom with and is a very sweet boy. He would love to have a feline friend in his new home! Jacob will be the purrfect companion for anyone.  He is being fostered in Kent, OH. 

Jacob's adoption fee of $100 i ncludes  negative test for Feline Leukemia (FELV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), neuter surgery, age-appropriate vaccines (feline leukemia, FVRCP, Rabies), de-worming, topical flea protection, and a microchip.
