Meet Buttercup! Adoption Fee: $325 Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/NCYmet7DbsGM6zr36 The next litter of 4 kittens available for adoption has 2 little girls, Buttercup & Tiger and 2 boys, Sergio & Leo. They are currently 10 weeks old. So, if you're looking for a pair, these are your kittens. We do prefer kittens be adopted in pairs. This group is currently in a foster home with other cats, a dog and kids. They're very socialized and friendly. We only adopt kittens in pairs unless there is another kitten friendly pet in the home for the new kitten to play with. Having a feline friend can be incredibly beneficial for their social and emotional well-being, providing comfort and support throughout their lives. There is a reduced fee for adopting more than one kitten/cat. All pets are microchipped, and the fee is pre-paid for a lifetime.
