Gracie (JKH-C-8913)

 

Jackson  (JKH-C-9046)

 

Noelle (JKH-C-9042)

 

 

Hi, I'm Gracie. My foster mom named me that because I'm such an elegant and graceful girl. I'm medium-haired with the gray coloring of a russian blue, with gorgeous green eyes and a beautiful plume tail. I'm barely a year old - really, just a kitten myself! I'm a sweet, gentle girl with a great personality. I'm affectionate with humans and great with other cats. Just pet me and I'll purr up a storm for you! I just got done nursing my kittens and they're all off to their forever homes. Now it's my turn. My foster mom says that I've become more kitten-like myself now that I'm not nursing or responsible for so many little ones, tossing toys in the air and chasing mice toys.

My adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming and spaying.

*************************************************

Jackson is a sweet "teenage" kitten, about 6 to 8 months in age. He's a very handsome tabby tuxedo with the cutest little white socks! He's a friendly, outgoing boy that enjoys the company of others, both human and feline. Jackson is new to Adopt-A-Pet, so stay tuned for further info. as we get to know him better.

Jackson's adoption fee of $125 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV test, flea preventative, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

*************************************************

My name is Noelle and I’m a beautiful 8 month old medium-haired Tabby kitten with striking colors (bright white chest & “snow dipped” paws along with my striking stripes). I have about the softest fur you’ve ever felt and a beautiful mane. It’s so soft, I feel like a mink! (no kidding!)

I’m a very affectionate girl with a thick, loud, melodic purr when I’m petted - and even when I’m just spoken to in a sweet voice. I respond very much to an encouraging voice and I make little mew-purr combination noises to talk back to you. I even come when I’m called most of the time. I love to be petted and like to lie near you. I meet new friends easily, both humans and other cats. Sometimes I’m more interested in watching what you’re doing than playing by myself. I could use a little encouragement to play, though I especially like to chase a ribbon dangling from a stick or feathers in the air. You could teach me some new games to play. When I’m not visiting you to see what you’re doing or to be petted, I pretty much stay out of your way.

I’m an extremely well behaved kitty. I don’t jump on anything or play with anything I shouldn’t. If my Foster Mom tells me “No”, I listen right away. I don’t even sharpen my claws very much and have taken to the scratching pad my foster Mom got me for that. I would like the stimulation of another cat or kitten to play with, but I’d also do fine with just you and the family.

Noelle's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and spaying.

Tipper (HAWK-C-9077)

 

 

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.

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

Hi my name is Mask, so named because -- well, I have the coolest mask - very unique! Aren't I awesome looking? I am a very good little boy and very playful. Lay me on my back, tickle my belly and I will play with you forever. I love to snuggle with all my human friends and my brother Boston. We are great playmates and would love to be adopted together. I'm a typical kitten that loves to explore around the house - you never know where you'll find me! I also get along with other cats and dogs. Take me home and I will love you forever.

Mask's adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

Mask's estimated date of birth is 3/1/10

*******************************************************************************

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.

Hi I'm Princess, a gorgeous, sleek, shiny, black beauty. Although I'm regal in looks, I'm not snooty at all. I have a friendly personality and like being around people and getting some one-on-one time, then I'm off exploring again. I came to Adopt-A-Pet with my baby kittens who are soon to be off to their forever homes, and I'm looking for my forever home too. I'm just about one year old, just barely a kitten myself. I can be paired up with one my my kittens, or will also make a nice single companion for some lucky family. I'm low maintenance - all I need is a warm bed, some good food, a sunny window to perch in, and of course, lots of love. I'm good at giving love too, so if this describes you, we may be the perfect match!

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!

You can probably tell why they call me Smudge. I'm white, with the softest, silkiest, russian blue "smudges". I'm a 10 month old kitten and I live with my sister, Swizzle, in our foster home with other cats and a dog. We all have a lot of fun playing together. I like to be around people, too, and will keep you company when you need companionship or a soft, silky cat to pet. I'm not a real lap kitty, but I'll lay in the middle of a room just waiting for you to stop by and pet me! I really enjoy being petted and I will purr real loud. I've grown up around other pets and would be happiest being adopted with my sister Swizzle unless there's another kitty friend in my forever home. Come over and meet me and you’ll see what a nice little girl I am. I've been in foster care my whole life - you see, I'm a "leftover" kitten from last year's group here at Adopt-A-Pet. There were SO many kittens that some of us are still waiting for our perfect family to come and find us! But really, I'm not a leftover at all - I just like to think of it as saving the best for last!

Ace (JAMC-C-8904)

 

Samuel (JAMC-C-8905)

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.
