❤️ Meet Fawn- your forever Valentine! ❤️Our 2 year old Fawn is a wonderful companion who enjoys spending time beside her human. This affectionate girl loves pets and is in all her glory when sitting on your lap. If she's not next to you, she's probably prancing around on her daily adventures around the house, checking out anything that might seem interesting. Oh yes, Fawn is a curious kitty who must know every inch of your home!Fawn would do great in a setting where there’s lots of space to roam about and where she can receive lots of attention. She is a fan of bird watching, catnip, and afternoon naps. She times her meals perfectly, and will happily remind you with a meow if you're behind schedule. She would do best with someone who picks up on her cues and appreciates her boundaries when she is ready to do her own thing. Same Fawn, same!  Fawn is ready to meet her match, don't miss your chance to fill out an application today!*You can meet Fawn at PetSmart in Warwick. Please avoid phone calls to the store, our team at Ten Lives can answer any questions you have. ___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here:  https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/Please Note:If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications. Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed. About Ten Lives:Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat. Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience! All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.

Story
Lincoln is a handsome gentleman with striking green eyes and the softest black coat. He is the definition of a “hang out and cuddle” kind of cat. This sweet boy isn’t complicated, he just wants to be near people and soak up your attention. Whether that means lounging beside you on the couch, draping himself over your shoulder, or curling up in a cozy bed nearby, Lincoln is happiest when he’s close. He has a calm, affectionate personality and would thrive in a home that appreciates a laid back companion who’s more into connection than chaos. If you’re looking for a loyal buddy to binge watch all your favorite shows, Lincoln is your guy! ADOPTION INFORMATION HOW TO GO ABOUT ADOPTING: 1. Come in during adoption hours to apply and fill out an application completely. We have applications on site. Open adoption hours take place at 44 Worthington Road in Cranston, RI.

Story
Meet Ike! Ike and Turner are two bonded kitties that have always lived together, and would love to go home with each other. They would likely do well with other cats since they do so well with each other, and they did live with a smaller dog in the past so they have familiarity with dogs. They're both very gentle and sweet. If you are interested in Ike and Turner, please call us here at (401)846-8276. You are welcome to stop by our Animal Care and Adoption Center here in Middletown, RI to meet with them at any time. Feel free to visit our website, www.potterleague.org, for more information on adopting from us.

Story
Meet Alma 💛 Sweet Alma is ready to begin her next chapter! Alma came to us as a pregnant stray and safely delivered a litter of beautiful babies while in our care. She was a wonderful mama, and now that her kittens are growing up, it’s finally her turn to be someone’s baby. Because Alma came to us as a stray, we don’t know her past experiences with other animals or children. For that reason, slow and patient introductions to new people, pets, and environments will help her feel safe and comfortable. Given time and reassurance, she blossoms beautifully. Alma is incredibly sweet and affectionate. She absolutely loves pets, attention, and being near her people. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who will happily soak up all the affection you have to give, Alma may be your perfect match. She’s been an amazing mama, now she deserves a forever home where she can be cherished. Come meet Alma and let her steal your heart! ⭐ If you’re interested in adopting, please fill out an adopter profile at www.parl.org/adopt and stop by during our open hours! ⭐
