Ace (JAMC-C-8904)
Ace and Samuel are the sweetest
brothers, now 15 months old. They have been with Adopt-A-Pet since
they were teeny babies. Due to the glut of kittens in the summer
season, Ace and Samuel have literally grown up in their foster home,
being constantly passed over in favor of other kittens. Their crime?
Their color. Ace and Samuel suffer from what is known in the animal
shelter world as Black Cat Syndrome. What this means is that black
cats are the last to be adopted and the first to be euthanized in
pounds all over the country. Of course, Ace and Samuel's lives are
not at risk since they are in Adopt-A-Pet's care. In that sense they
are the lucky ones. But, Ace and Samuel really need to find their
forever homes!
Ace is a sleek black and Samuel is black and white, both are
short-haired. Their wonderful foster mom has this to say about them:
They are quite the definition of brotherly love: they play, wrestle
and groom each other when not napping or being curious about what
our family is doing. They curl up with our daughter at night and in
the morning patiently wait for her or another family member to wake
up. Sometimes they will sit on your lap but more usually want to be
near us. They love having their bellies rubbed and call to us when
they want some attention. They are truly bonded and would be
heartbroken if separated. Ace and Samuel would love to live together
in a forever home with children and activity so they can be a part
of it! Therefore, if you are looking for a sweet pair, here they
are!
Ace's adoption fee of $100 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia test,
FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination,
deworming and neutering.
Archimedes (KS-C-9069)

My name is Archimedes. I’m a handsome
medium-haired orange tabby boy with a huge personality to boot. I’m
super friendly and love to talk to my foster parents to let them
know when I’m hungry or when I’d love to be picked up. I really
enjoy being held and purr loudly to let you know I’m happy.
I have a lot of fun playing with the other foster cats in my house,
but LOVE playing with my older foster sister, Fuzzball, the best.
We’d love to go home together! I’m also really comfortable around my
100-lb foster dog, too!

and napping on my foster mom’s lap. Once you meet me, I know you’ll
want me to come home with you!

Leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, deworming and neutering.

black tuxedo kitten, all dressed up and nowhere to go! I'm the
strongest of all my siblings! I love to be pet and will climb in
your lap and fall asleep. I love to play with everyone, but
especially Dasher. I'm adventurous and like to explore. I'm even
good with dogs! Santa rescued us during the holiday time and brought
us to Adopt-A-Pet to take care of us until we were big and strong
enough to be adopted into our forever homes. So now it's time . . .
Come meet me and I know you will decide that you just can't live
without me!

test, FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, microchip, deworming and

Boston Blackie (HAWK-C-9079)
Hi, my name is Boston Blackie, and I am
the cutest kitten ever! I'm the one with the attitude, as you can
see from my pictures. But, I'm also the most lovable - my purr is so
loud I sometimes sound like an outboard boat motor. That is how you
can tell I am happy. I am usually found sleeping in the laundry
basket. I don't know why I am so attracted to it, but I am. I hope I
don't end up in the wash machine! I'm best buddies with my brother
Mask, and it would be awesome if we could go to our forever home
together. If you're looking for a fun-loving couple o' guys to liven
up your household, here we are!
Boston's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV
test, FVRCP vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

Chester (IK-C-9035)
Chester is a gorgeous and petite
pumpkin orange tabby with the softest fur in town, estimated to be 3
years old and is 2-paw declawed, much smaller in person than his
photos make him look. He is a sweet boy who would prefer to be your
one and only cat but would tolerate another calm cat. He transitions
somewhat slowly to his new environment, but once he is settled he
does just fine and loves to sit next to you on the couch, follow you
around and to pounce and play with catnip and jingly toys like a
kitten. Chester has grown more brave since he’s come to his foster
home, and now likes to greet people at the front door. He has been a
purring motorboat when he gets petted and can be somewhat talkative.
He shows more and more personality every day but does not like to be
picked up. His foster mom is impressed with his obedience as he left
her assortment of plants alone after only having to tell him no
twice. Chester will make an excellent companion for a single person
or childless couple.
Chester's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia
test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies
vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering. Chester is also
2-paw declawed.
Fluffy (DMC-C-9064)
As friendly as they come! Fluffy is a
soft, brown/gray tabby boy who loves to play and cuddle with his
person and his siblings. A typical active, curious kitten, he is a
good jumper and explorer and will keep you entertained with his cute
kitten antics for hours! He also is a great cuddler and will purr as
soon as you pick him up. Come meet this little fellow and fall in
love!
Fluffy's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV
test, first FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, deworming and
neutering.
Fluffy's estimated date of birth is 4/6/10.
Fred (TMP-C-9084)
Fred is a wonderful orange and white
medium-haired male, about 6 years old. He is front-paw declawed.
Fred's elderly owner had to enter a nursing home after suffering a
broken hip, having to leave her beloved Fred behind. Fred and his
"siblings" were left alone in the home for the last 6 months in the
hopes that their mom would be able to return after rehab, but
unfortunately that is not to be. So Fred is now on a mission to find
a new family willing to give him a new life and a loving home.
Though currently a bit traumatized at his ordeal, he is a sweet,
deserving boy that will re-acclimate just given a little time.
Fred is currently sporting his shaved summer "do" because he was
quite matted, so his new family will have to make sure he is
regularly groomed. Fred is used to other cats (and used to live with
a dog too) and will fit in perfectly in a multi-pet household.
If you are looking for a calm, mature and very handsome boy to add
to your family, please consider Fred! Fred's prior owner has just
celebrated her 90th birthday, and she would like no better present
than to know that Fred is being taken care of and loved.
Fred's adoption fee of $100 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV
test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, and
neutering. Fred is 2-paw declawed.
Harry (HAWK-C-9080)
New Arrival!!
I'm Harry - if you'll pardon the pun!
I'm a fabulous longhaired gray tabby kitten. When I first got to my
foster home I was shy at first, but it only took a couple of days
for me to warm up to my new surroundings. It was a bit scary at
first since I was never exposed to those big creatures called dogs!
Now they think I am the boss. One of the dogs in my temporary home
thinks she is my mother. (I let her think so just so she will get
off my back.) My foster mom often calls me her little Cupie doll,
but I am a boy. What gives? I would fit in nicely in any home
needing a little beautification. How about yours?
Harry's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV
test, FVRCP vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.
Harry's estimated date of birth is 3/20/10

%20cat%20009-3-14.jpg)
Josiah is a young, front-declawed,
Adonis-type hunk that we believe to be about 1.5 -2 years old. He's
gorgeous, sleek and solid black (except for one white whisker!) This
fellow is a stitch...so funny, lively and animated. He's got a
personality to beat the band ... not shy at all, loves to meet dogs
and actually thinks he is one. He's just a blast to have around. He
loves to do office work ... he's one who will investigate whatever
you're working on, so if you're a work-at-home person, get ready for
a little office helper! He is good buddies with his foster roommate,
Joey, and we would love to see them be adopted together. It's not
mandatory, but, since he is so playful he would need to have the
company of another rambunctious kitty to wrestle around with - so if
you already have a kitty at home looking for a playmate, Josiah's
your guy! Or adopt him and his pal, Joey, and you'll have a
ready-made family. Also, if you really would like a dog, but are not
able to have one - again - Josiah's your guy!
Josiah's adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, flea preventative,
feline leukemia and FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination,
rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

handsome tabby boy medium-haired with a gorgeous plume tail. He is
soooo very friendly and the definition of "lap cat." He is amazing
with children (and adults) and even gets along with other cats
nicely. It's a pretty safe bet to assume he'd be fine with nice
dogs, too. Kendall's two favorite things are looking out the window
and being stroked by a human. If you're looking for an all-around
nice kitty, Kendall is the one for you!
Kendall's adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, flea
preventative, feline leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies
vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

Loco is a handsome little tuxedo boy,
all dressed up in his white shirt and gloves - just waiting for you
to take him to the gala! The more rambunctious of the pair, he loves
to hide in his fort and jump out at his sister. When he's tired, he
cuddles with his foster mom, is very affectionate and loves to purr.
He's very people-oriented, follows his foster mom everywhere, and,
being the more talkative of the two, likes to discuss politics as
you're having your morning coffee. He's best buddies with his sister
Coco and they would love to get adopted together. If you're looking
for a ready-made pair, look no further!

white feet and a white chin. He is called Magic because he can get
into or out of anything! He is very curious and will keep you in
smiles! Pick him up and his purr engine goes nonstop. He comes out
the minute you come in the room and wants attention - loves to be
held and kissed. This guy is definitely our "pick of the litter"!
Abracadabra - give him a home - wave your wand and make him your
own!

with Adopt-A-Pet since they were teeny babies. Due to the glut of
kittens in the summer season, Ace and Samuel have literally grown up
in their foster home, being constantly passed over in favor of other

Sno-Babie (RH-C-9074)
New Arrival!!
Sno-Babie is a magnificent Himalayan
(mix?) male, 3 1/2 years old. He's snowy white with faint flamepoint
tips. He was left in a sealed box in a vet clinic's lobby, with a
note that allergies prevented him from staying in his home. Because
the box was left in an area where people regularly drop donations
off, and he remained quiet, nobody knew he was in there and he was
not found for 3 days. He was full of mats and underweight. Despite
this bit of trauma, he's an easy-going boy. Though just a tad timid
at first, he's loving and affectionate once he gets to know you. Now
all cleaned up and at a healthy weight in his foster home, he's very
active and playful and would love a kitty playmate that is his equal
on the playfulness scale. As with all Persians, he will need regular
brushing/grooming in order to keep his coat free of mats.

leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming,
microchip and neutering.

New Arrival!!
My name is Tipper and I am a good
little kitten. I am a handsome gray tabby boy, and the end of my
tail looks like it was dipped in white paint - hence the named
Tipper. I had to adapt to my new foster home and did well after only
one day. I now get along with other cats and even dogs. Can you
believe it? One of the big resident cats in my foster home always
herds me along as if I were her child, and is always cleaning my
face. I guess I am a bit messy eater! I will miss her, but I am
ready to go to my forever home. It would be great if you had another
cat or kitten that I could become buddies with.

has become the perfect cat.

Wilson (JDRF-C-8816)
Wilson is such a handsome orange tabby
with the cutest pink nose. He is about 3 years old. He is an
extremely loving and affectionate cat. His foster mom has decided
that he would probably be happiest as an "only" pet and that is most
likely the type of environment he came from. When the other pets in
the foster home are not around, he will jump on your lap or rub up
against you and wants lots of cuddling and attention. He will make a
wonderful companion and lap cat.

shorthaired male, about 2 years old. He has adapted to his new foster

is extremely friendly, enjoys head rubs, chasing down thrown toys and
sleeping next to the foster parents at night. He has the perfect balance
of being a lap cat and maintaining his own independence. He does not
constantly whine for attention, but will make himself heard when
necessary or when the sound of a can is being opened. :-)

flea preventative, feline leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper
combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination and tag, deworming, microchip and
