Colorpoint Shorthair kittens & cats in Connecticut

Meet Osono, an inquisitive kitten with a heart of gold and a distinctive orange tail.  Named after the warm and welcoming bakery owner from the film, he may take a moment to warm up to new people, but his playful side quickly shines through. This curious kitten enjoys exploring his surroundings and will shower his favorite humans with affection once he feels comfortable. “Kiki’s Delivery Service," a beloved anime movie, follows the journey of a girl finding her place in the world, aided by a beloved talking cat. Similarly, the kittens of Kiki’s Delivery Service are on a quest to find their special place in the world, and with your help, they can embark on their own magical adventures." As a general rule, we recommend that young kittens only go in pairs or to households that already have another pet. Young kittens on their own, no matter how much attention they get from humans, usually get bored and tend to be more destructive.  They need another animal to help socialize them (to learn how to appropriately wrestle, boundaries, etc).  Most times having another cat is the best, though some may be okay with a gentle dog. You can see more pictures and videos of our fosters on our facebook page:  Sophia L'Orange Kitten Rescue All of our adoptable animals are cared for and assessed in foster homes (we do not have a shelter), up to date on age appropriate vaccinations and have been spayed or neutered and tested for FeLV/FIV, before they are adopted. They have had de-worming medication as a standard of care and Flea/Tick/Ear Mite preventive treatment. Medical records will be released with the adopted pet. ##1945238##

Chunk is an affectionate guy who gets along with other cats and is bonded to Caroline. He has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). There's nothing to do or medicine to administer. FIV means that Chunk's immune system is compromised. He needs to live indoors exclusively (just like all of our adopted cats), eat high-quality food, and live in a stress-free environment. Like all companion cats (and dogs), he should see his veterinarian every year without fail. ~ FIV is a retrovirus that compromises a cat's immune system. ~ FIV is a feline-only virus that cannot be transmitted to humans. ~ Cats who test positive for FIV can live for many years without serious symptoms. ~ A positive FIV test result is not a death sentence. ~ FIV is most often transmitted through a bite from an infected cat, therefore, cats who test positive for FIV CAN live with FIV-negative cats with minimal risk of transmission as long as they do not fight to the point of biting. ***************************************************** Our adoption process: Prospective adopters must be at least 25 years old and live in Connecticut.
