My story

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

Hammy and RJ are an adorable pair of kittens who were surrendered by their owner on July 24, 2025 along with their two sisters (Meeko and Stella). The kittens were 4-weeks old at that time.

Hammy is a handsome male Tuxedo kitten. He has a black-and-white short smooth coat in a tuxedo pattern, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable face with golden eyes, a black velvet nose, a small patch of white on the right-hand side of his muzzle, and long white whiskers. Hammy has a beautiful white/silver undercoat.

RJ is a cute female Chocolate Point Siamese kitten. She has a cream/ivory short smooth coat, a long chocolate brown tail, and an adorable face with blue eyes, a large brown mask, a pink nose, a white muzzle, and long white whiskers.

These siblings dearly love each other, but they are still working on their social skills with regard to their people friends. They have made progress in our shelter since their arrival, but they are not yet ready to be held in your arms or snuggle up on your lap. We believe that they would do much better in a home environment with a family or individual who has the experience/patience to let them acclimate to their new home (realizing they may choose to hide for awhile until you gain their trust).

The siblings have been separated into pairs so that they will have a best friend for comfort/security: [Hammy & RJ] and [Meeko & Stella].

Hammy and RJ were neutered/spayed on September 23, 2025 and were also given rabies vaccine. Hammy weighed 6.7 lbs that day while RJ weighed 5.2 lbs.

Hammy and his sister RJ are sharing a cage and are quite compatible. RJ plays the role of the proverbial 'little sister' who depends upon her big brother. They are being listed as a bonded pair and will be required to be adopted together.
