THIS ANIMAL IS NOT FIXED AND IS BEING ADOPTED ON A SPAY/NEUTER AGREEMENTCome visit me at Petsmart!Adoption Fee: 295.00The excitement of adopting a kitten! Kittens are so irresistible, who can say No. Here are some tips to help ensure a smooth transition into your home.-Kitten proof your home (block of nooks and crannies, move electronic cords or other items you don’t want played with).-Be prepared and plan for your kitten’s arrival. Pick up supplies to help your kitten settle in their new home (kitten food, kitty litter, appropriate scratching surfaces, toys ect).-Provide lots of affection, play time and supervision to keep your kitten safe, out of trouble, and socialized.-Don’t overwhelm your kitten on day one. Provide a quiet area or allow them to explore a small room you have set up first. Once your kitten is settled, expect to see scratching of surfaces, wrestling and climbing. Kittens have boundless energy and curiosity. They will require more of your time and attention than an adult cat, but the reward is watching your kitten grow into a sleek adult cat, along with years of love and affection.

Story
Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $250 - Meet Winnifred!This beautiful black-and-white sweetheart is looking for a patient and loving home to call her own. Winnifred came to the shelter after being surrendered due to having too many animals in her previous home. While we don`t know much about her past, we estimate that she is around 6 years old and are enjoying getting to know her gentle personality.Winnifred is a timid gal who is still learning that the world can be a safe and kind place. She would thrive in a quiet home with a family that understands she may need a little extra time to settle in and build trust. While she may not be the type of cat to curl up in your lap right away, she does appreciate a good cheek scratch and the company of caring people who respect her pace.With patience, understanding, and unconditional love, Winnifred has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. She is hoping her perfect family will find her soon and give her the chance to enjoy the comfort and security of a forever home.Could Winnifred be the missing piece of your family?
