Story
Meet the handsome royal Prince of Purring! Prince might just be the easiest, most down to the earth kitty ever - he is sweet and gentle and will do just about anything to lay on someone's lap and get rubbed. He is the perfect gentleman with other animals in the house (dogs and cats), and loves to play gently with the 9 year old human boy too. Prince will do great in a home with other cats, dogs, and kids, though he'd also do fine with just human companionship. Prince of Purring is neutered, up to date on rabies & FVRCP {combo distemper} vaccinations - tested negative for fiv/felv & heartworm. Interested in adopting this happy kitty? Just send an email to us at njcattitude@gmail.com - we will send you our Cat Adoption Application. Or you can access the adoption form on our website at njcattitude.org. Questions? Please send an email. Please take a look at the Cattitude Inc Facebook page where you will see lots of photos and videos of previously homeless kittens and cats as well as information about our all-volunteer, non-profit, rescue corporation. Cattitude Inc volunteers have rescued thousands of homeless cats & kittens and placed them in purrever homes. We are not a business. We do not have a business address in Piscataway. We do not have a shelter. We are not an Animal Rescue Service.

Good with kids, Not good with cats, House-trained,
Story
She is genuinely an amazing, sweet, and friendly girl. She is the perfect candidate for an ESA animal…She is absolutely in love with any human she comes across and loves cuddling with you and getting chin scratches. She is best as a single cat in your home, and she isn’t fond of other cats, however she is friendly with dogs who don’t bother her too much. She is currently in my home with my two cats and isn't doing the best…i want her to be more happy with just her humans <3
