***This kitten can be quite nervous/timid. Would do best in a quiet, patient home*** THIS ANIMAL IS NOT FIXED AND IS BEING ADOPTED ON A SPAY/NEUTER AGREEMENTCome visit me at PAW - People for Animal Wellbeing!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.

Come meet me at PAW!Adoption fee: $250Meet Princess!All hail Princess—your future royal roommate with a big heart and a slightly spicy personality! Princess is a sweet, affectionate girl who truly enjoys spending time with her people. She loves pets, attention, and being part of your daily “court,” whether that’s supervising your activities or claiming the best seat in the house like the royalty she believes she is. Like any proper monarch, Princess has her limits. When she gets overstimulated, she may give a quick “royal decree” (a gentle nip) to let you know it’s time for a short break from the royal audience. She does best with people who understand feline etiquette and respect her signals—after all, even queens need boundaries! With the right match, Princess shines as a loving companion who is equal parts cuddly and confident. She’ll happily share her affection on her terms and reward patient adopters with loyalty, purrs, and plenty of regal charm. If you’re ready to welcome a tiny ruler into your home—one with a big personality and an even bigger heart—Princess is ready to move into her forever castle.
