Meet Sesame! This lil girl is so curious and sweet! She was the first of her siblings to show interest in people. She loves to rub on her fosters legs and get pets on her ears. She rolls over on her back and likes to show her belly. Sesame is young and playful and would need to be adopted with one of her buddies from foster or to a home with another young kitten. Sesame is fully vetted (spayed, UTD on vaccines, de-wormed, treated for fleas, microchipped, and combo tested negative) and her adoption fee is $150.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Squeak! This girl got her name because when she was in separate quarters when she first came in she would greet her foster with lots to say when she came to spend time with her. Squeak is a silly and energetic girl. She loves to play with any toy and run around. Squeak didn't seem cat friendly at first but it turned out once she was comfortable she loves to wrestle and chase with other high energy cats/kittens. Squeak has a little trouble with table manners and is still learning she doesn't have to be worried about food but her foster has been helping her understand. Squeak will need a slow introduction but could live happily with another cat who could match her energy or could go home with one of her foster friends. Squeak is fully vetted (spayed, UTD on vaccines, de-wormed, treated for fleas, combo tested negative, and microchipped) and her adoption fee is $100.

Deena is a blast in a glass! Deena is the sweetest cat around. She loves making air biscuits and snuggling her face into her foster.

Deena is fully vetted (spayed, UTD on vaccines, de-wormed, treated for fleas, microchipped, and combo tested negative) and her adoption fee is $100.
