We Will Be Actively Looking to Adopt Kittens in Pairs Health & Background Estimated Date of Birth: 6 April 2026 ✅ SPAYED ✅ NWS Transport Protocol: Credelio CAT and Capstar administered orally prior to transport from a New World Screwworm (NWS) affected area. ✅ FIV Test (SNAP): Negative ✅ FeLV Test (SNAP): Negative ✅ Eclipse 4 (FVRCP+C) Vaccination: Protects against Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (Herpesvirus-1), Feline Calicivirus, Feline Panleukopenia (Feline Distemper), and Chlamydia felis. Rabies Vaccine: Too young to receive. ✅ Microchipped with 24PetWatch and registered with the Free Pet Chip Registry. ⚖️ Weight: Approximately 3-4 pounds. Why We Will Be Actively Looking to Adopt Kittens in Pairs We will be actively looking to place kittens in pairs whenever possible, as animal behavior experts and feline welfare organizations consistently recognize that kittens develop better socially, emotionally, and behaviorally when they grow up with a feline companion of a similar age. Benefits of adopting two kittens together: Built-in playmate: Kittens have endless energy. A companion provides a healthy outlet for wrestling, chasing, and play, helping to redirect natural hunting instincts and play aggression away from people, furniture, and household items. Teaches bite inhibition and boundaries: Through play and wrestling, kittens learn how to control the force of their bites and scratches. When one kitten plays too rough, the other responds immediately, teaching important social limits that humans cannot easily replicate. Faster learning and social development: Kittens learn by watching each other. They often develop appropriate grooming habits, litter box skills, confidence, and social behaviors more quickly when raised with a companion. Reduces loneliness and stress: Kittens thrive on interaction and stimulation. Having a bonded companion provides comfort, companionship, and security, especially when family members are at work, school, or away from home. Helps prevent boredom and destructive behavior: Two kittens are far more likely to keep each other entertained, reducing the chances of unwanted behaviors that can result from boredom, frustration, or excess energy. Provides lifelong companionship: Many kittens form strong bonds with their feline companions, giving them a source of friendship, comfort, and enrichment throughout their lives. While every kitten and family situation is unique, adopting a pair often creates a happier, healthier, and better-adjusted outcome for both the kittens and their adopters.  Our adoption fee's are $250 per kitten or $400 for two.

Snoopy is a handsome gentleman who has seen his share of street life. He is estimated to be between 2 and 3 years old and came into foster care after several months of living outside. He is adjusting well to the indoor lifestyle. Unfamiliar noises still make him a bit nervous, but his favorite Churu treats help him feel brave. He also loves lots of pets and brushing from his foster family which includes gentle children. A small, quiet space will help him ease into a new environment. Once he feels safe and loved, he will reward you with his show of affection by giving you many head bumps. Sweet Snoopy is FIV+ and he will need to live indoors only (catios are okay!). Snoopy does well with other cats that respect his request for personal space. He has no known experience with dogs. To meet Snoopy, go to queencitycatsvt.org to fill out an adoption application.
