My story

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

Ben came to us with 4 of his other littermate siblings: Eddie, Chloe, Blake and Macy. He is curious, engaging and friendly once he has warmed up to you.

Ben and his siblings came to us just after Thanksgiving 2025. He is a little skittish around new folks but is curious of his surroundings.

Ben is neutered and has received his distemper and rabies vaccines. He is up to date on flea & tick preventative and is feline leukemia & FIV tested. He is negative for both.

We do not know how he would do with dogs - this is something we have not tested. He doesn't seem to mind other cats.

Ben likes to play and snuggle with his other kitten friends. He likes people once he has warmed up to them. He enjoys playing with cat toys and his kitty friends. He is a very sweet kitty with gorgeous cream and orange markings.

Ideal home: Ben would do great in most homes - homes with super young kids might scare him some until he adjusts. He certainly needs a home where he can be him, comfortably so, and on his terms.

Ben is a good kitty and worth the investment and wait. With time and familiarity, he may come out of his shell more and be a wonderful companion for someone.

Additional adoption info

We are a donation based operation located in Redwood Falls, Minnesota. We fully vet, vaccinate and medicate animals that come into our care according to their age under the direction of our team of veterinarians: Riverside Vet Clinic. All dogs and cats receive a comprehensive wellness exam, distemper, rabies (if old enough), are dewormed & medicated for flea/tick/heartworms (as a preventative). Occassionally, we will receive a very sick animal who will require significantly more vetting than others and those vet fees are offset into the adoption fee. This would be why some animals are priced higher than others.

Anyone is welcome to visit during our open hours of operation unless indicated differently on our social media. Our animals would love to meet you and play with you. We also host 'doggie day out' events where a family can take a pup out for a day on the town while we are open. It's a great way to get to know the animal and the animal to get to know you!
