Story
I am a handsome boy whose mom and seven siblings were adopted and now I am looking for MY forever home. I am friendly but may act shy around people I don’t know yet. I like to spend my days observing things through the windows, napping, and playing with anything on a string! I enjoy being petted and am given gentle kisses and hugs. I am curious and will do just about anything for a treat! I have lots of love to give. I get along with other cats and dogs as well. Dart is neutered, vaccinated against rabies, and FVRCP, flea and worm treated, and negative for feline leukemia and FI. If interested in dart, please fill out an applications Castawaycatsde.com.

Story
DEXTER & HENRY (Henry has been adopted) These sweet kittens were in the process of having their mom desperately relocate them along with their other two siblings to avoid being run over by a lawn mower. Someone witnessed what was happening and called us one night, so we picked them up and gave them to fosters. Mom cat is FIV + and passed it on to Dexter and Henry, but there is a chance they will become negative as they grow older. FIV + cats can safely coexist with other cats and live long and healthy lives. Dexter (Tabby Kitten) is one of the friendliest kittens ever. He seeks out his people often and will trill greetings then wait for pets while rolling around and purring. You can feel the love pouring out of him! He is gentle and really enjoys people, other cats, and dogs as he is extremely social, playful; and energetic! Dexter is very laid back and doesn’t let anything bother him! Henry (Black Kitten) is a love bug and is also very social, playful, and energetic! He is always purring and loves being where the action is! Sometimes he will curl up on top of you in bed for a little snuggle. He is friendly and definitely lets you know when he wants attention! Henry gets along with other cats and dogs. These two brothers would be a great match if looking to adopt two! Dexter and Henry are neutered, vaccinated for rabies and FVRCP, flea and worm treated, and negative for feline leukemia.

Story
*ONLY BART AVAILABLE* These two siblings were saved from the street. Bart is a sweet boy who is shy and needs a little encouragement to help him out of his shell. He is almost always purring! Bart loves playing with toys with his human or kitty friends. Lisa (no longer available) is a little shy with new people at first but when she gets to know you she will crack you up with her antics during playtime. She is a playful and energetic girl. Both Bart and Lisa get along with other cats but we aren’t sure about dogs yet. Both kittens are negative for FIV and feline leukemia, spayed/neutered, flea and worm treated, and vaccinated against rabies and FVRCP. Ideally these two cuties should be adopted together. They are waiting patiently for their furever home! If interested in adopting Bart and Lisa, please fill out an application at Castawaycatsde.com.
