My story

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

 



Dragon's such a goofy little goober. He's around 5 months old and comes from a litter of four kittens, so he's super cat friendly and would love to live with another kitty again, once he's cleared his ringworm infection! Dragon's hobbies include snacking and playing and napping in the sun.

Ringworm care can actually be a breeze with the right set-up and if you have the time to dedicate to it, but can be a bit tedious since it can spread easily to any living creature and requires some caution to prevent that. Ideally we would love to find a home without any really young kids or other pets, just to limit the risk of exposure, unless the home has enough space to keep everyone fully and safely separated. PAWS provides all of the medications and other treatments needed at our clinic, so please read through the info linked below and if you feel like your home would be a fit you can apply and reach out to us to learn more!

Age: ~5 months
Animal ID#: A180913

Location: Foster Care-- please email adoptions@phillypaws.org to set up a time to meet this kitty!

**This pet is currently being treated for ringworm, a mild fungal infection of the skin that usually clears up within 6-8 weeks of starting treatment. All the follow-up care we provide for your ringworm pet is free of charge at a PAWS facility while they finish their treatment with you, and we are with you every step of the way! You can learn more about adopting a pet with ringworm here.**

**Because this pet isn't yet altered, they are only eligible for adoption via our Pre-Adopt program, which will require an extra verification step as well as a $100 deposit per animal that is fully refunded after their spay/neuter surgeries. Any additional questions about this can be covered when you reach out about them!**
