My story

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

Spitfire is a 3 month old, male, Domestic Short Hair kitten. He has a big personality behind those curious eyes. He and his littermates were trapped from beneath a deck on a dangerously cold night just before a storm, and the journey from frightened to friendly has been remarkable.
His name fits his spirit. Playful bursts, bold little pounces, and a hint of mischief appear once he feels secure. He is still learning that hands bring kindness, but he warms up quickly with patient, gentle handling.
Spitfire requires an adult only home with someone experienced in working with shy kittens. Beginning in a small, safe space will be essential. With patience and time, he will reward his person with trust, playfulness, and a lifelong bond.

More about this rescue

We are a volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill shelter.
Visit our website at HeartofRI.org for an in depth view of our policies, procedures, fees, and exactly what they include.

Unfortunately, due to past issues with landlords/housing/insurance, a restricted breed policy is in place for Bully breed/Pit Bull type dogs. This means that you must own your home and provide proof of homeownership to adopt a Bully breed/Pit Bull dog or puppy. While we understand that this may be an inconvenience, it is necessary to help reduce the number of devastated dogs being returned.  We apologize for the inconvenience.
