Story
Mushroom is a 4 month old kitten that needs a loving home. He is very friendly, litterbox trained, and good around other cats. He is neutered, rabies vaccinated, and ear tipped. I want him to have a good home, so he is free. If you are able I would like to get any amount of the $90 I spent on her vet visit back. I can supply his records with your adoption. He is currently living outside, so he may have fleas. He sticks around everyday and loves his pets.
