Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Atlantic, Iowa

If you are looking for a lap cat, look no further. This guy is one of the sweetest cats I've ever known! (and I have known A LOT of cats! 😅) He's cuddly, talkative, affectionate, and he follows me everywhere I go in the house, he doesn't have much desire to go out anymore(he was a stray who came to our door and I started feeding him and eventually coaxed him inside). I have had him neutered, vaccinated, treated for flea and tick, and microchipped, and he uses the litter box. The vet thinks he is about 2.5 yrs old. *We have 4 cats already, and a chihuahua so I'd prefer to find him another home, otherwise I would keep him, he's so sweet. I'll keep him as long as it takes. Fee is negotiable, I spend a lot on food, that was a consideration ***I can meet you within Iowa, Nebraska border, just let me know where you are and I can make it work.

Meet Bambi, a resilient young lady born in June 2021 who has already overcome some challenges in her early days. Initially a feral kitty, Bambi has made remarkable progress in transitioning to indoor life! Her foster caregiver notes that one of Bambi's major accomplishments has been learning to trust people. She now welcomes affection from humans and is gradually engaging more with the other resident felines. While she maintains an independent nature, Bambi has been observing positive interactions between her foster and the other pets, which has boosted her confidence and sense of security. Although she prefers to be near her foster rather than picked up, she has a special fondness for mealtime and treats. Described as gentle and already well-versed in litterbox etiquette, Bambi thrives in an environment where patience is valued - progress at her own pace is key! Additionally, she thrives in the company of other resident cats, as their presence has been instrumental in her acclimatization process. Notably, Bambi has formed a close bond with a new kitten in her foster home, displaying affection and nurturing behavior towards the little one. Stay tuned for updates as Bambi continues to flourish on her rescue journey! The suggested adoption donation for Bambi is $65. We are a 501c3 organization which means that your donation may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. All donations go toward the high cost of veterinary care for our animals in rescue, providing supportive services to animals in homes, and funding for special programs like Muddy Paws Parvo Puppy Project. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application is approved, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver.  If this pet is not spayed or neutered at the time of adoption due to limited vetting availability, a voucher will be given to the adopter for a free spay/neuter procedure at Val Verde Animal Hospital. Spay/neuters completed elsewhere will be reimbursed $80/dog or $55/cat once proof of alteration has been received by Muddy Paws. Alterations are required for all Muddy Paws adoptions. The adoption contract states alters must be done within ONE month of the adoption date or the adopter will be in breach of the contract. Adopters are required to provide proof of alteration to Muddy Paws Rescue immediately following the procedure. Thank you in advance for your compliance. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.  To learn about Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue or donate to our animals, please visit our website at MuddyPawsSecondChanceRescue.com or our Facebook Page.  ##1178358##

Meet Lucky, a Domestic Shorthair born approximately 4/2019. Lucky is a typical young cat who loves attention, regularly climbing and zooming around. He's very vocal and friendly and curious about new people. He likes to be close and pet, but doesn't love being held. He loves being brushed and plays with his toys often. Lucky is a very curious little guy, so it may be best to keep things out of reach, especially shoes. He also has accidents outside of his litter box from time to time, so he'll need a lot of patience and possibly re-training. Lucky wants to give you all of his attention, so give him a chance today! The suggested adoption donation for Lucky is $65, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).
