Story
See our adoption page: https://xxxx@xxxx.x / Recently, a feral cat in our neighborhood deposited her litter on the doorstep of a nearby relative. Fortunately, our loving aunt Patti was available to provide temporary shelter. Unfortunately, our friends and family circles are already at full, cat-capacity and simply cannot take them in. As such, please reach out if you're interested in adopting.​​ ​By all accounts the kittens appear healthy, social, well-adjusted, and all take to their litter boxes just fine. They are playful, loving, entertaining, and absolutely perfect in every way. They are currently indoors in a safe environment and not permitted outside.​ As of today, December 10th, 2025, we suspect the litter is approximately 7-8 weeks old. Note that the pictures provided throughout this site were taken less than 2 weeks ago. We will continue to update this site with updated pictures and videos. Additional videos and PICs are available upon request. Thank you !!

Story
Meet Bonnie! She is an energetic, smart, and loving forever kitten who is looking for her forever home. She loves to play with her favorite mice and watch bird livestreams on the TV! She wants to keep you all to herself, so she needs to be a solo friend, but she's great with strangers and isn't shy about rolling over for belly rubs. Bonnie's favorite downtime activity is curling up under the blankets with you, so not only is she super cute she also acts as the world's softest space heater. She would be great for an owner of any experience level and would be great with kids. She's ready to find a new best friend for the holiday season.
