Story
Meet Dodger, an adorable tuxedo kitten with a big personality and an even bigger heart! Dodger is one of the friendliest kittens in his litter of six and absolutely loves being around people of all ages. Whether he’s climbing into your lap for cuddles or asking to be held, he’s happiest when he’s close to his humans. This playful little guy is full of energy and loves romping around with his kitten siblings and chasing toys. After playtime, Dodger is always ready to curl up for affection and attention. With his sweet nature, playful spirit, and love for companionship, Dodger is sure to bring joy and laughter to any home. As a general rule, we recommend that young kittens only go in pairs or to households that already have another pet. Young kittens on their own, no matter how much attention they get from humans, usually get bored and tend to be more destructive.  They need another animal to help socialize them (to learn how to appropriately wrestle, boundaries, etc).  Most times having another cat is the best, though some may be okay with a gentle dog. You can see more pictures and videos of our fosters on our facebook page:  Sophia L'Orange Kitten Rescue All of our adoptable animals are cared for and assessed in foster homes (we do not have a shelter), up to date on age appropriate vaccinations and have been spayed or neutered and tested for FeLV/FIV, before they are adopted. They have had de-worming medication as a standard of care and Flea/Tick/Ear Mite preventive treatment. Medical records will be released with the adopted pet. ##2680324##

Story
Meet Georgette, a beautiful calico kitten who looks just like her mother. This sweet girl is a bit more timid than her siblings and prefers affection on her own terms. While she may not enjoy being held, Georgette has her own quiet way of seeking attention and companionship when she feels comfortable. Georgette loves to play and can often be found chasing cat toys or wrestling with her kitten siblings. Her playful spirit shines once she settles in and feels at ease. With patience, understanding, and a loving home, Georgette is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion.

Story
Meet Conejito With her soft light orange coat kissed with hints of white and the most stunning green-blue eyes, Conejito is incredibly beautiful. She’s one of the girls from the Quattro litter and she’s as sweet and gentle as she is playful. This little lady loves to play, romp around with her siblings, and then slow down for cuddles and affection. Conejito has a gentle, loving personality that makes everyone fall for her. She’s looking for a forever family where she can be cherished, spoiled, and loved for life — and she’d be especially happy if one of her Quattro littermates could come along too. Conejito is ready to find her forever home, could it be with you? As a general rule, we recommend that young kittens only go in pairs or to households that already have another pet.
