Story
Meet Gingy! Gingy is a lovely, affectionate kitten girl who’s fully vetted and ready for her forever home. She may have an adventurous spirit, but her favorite activity is curling up for a cozy nap. What makes Gingy extra special? She’s incredibly friendly — she comes when called, loves to snuggle, and makes friends with people and cats alike in no time. Whether you’re looking for a cuddle buddy or a gentle companion, Gingy is the perfect fit. We adopt AND foster-to-adopt! Preference and adoption fee discount given for adopting two kittens together. Fill out our adoption app to start the process: https://tinyurl.com/MMAdopt. Kittens will be fixed, fully vetted, and tested negative for FIV/FELV/SNAP prior to going home.

Story
Tigre (Spanish for Tiger) was a stray kitten brought in to our home over a year ago. Tigre birthdate is unknown but he is certainly less than 2 years old, He’s very timid at first but then he comes around for ear scratches and petting. He has all his shots up to date and is also neutered. Unfortunately, due to my busy work schedule I am afraid he may be lacking the attention and stimulation he deserves.
