Felines Available for Adoption

Curio was dumped in the country as a youngster. By the time he showed up at a friendly farm, he had a nasty nasal discharge. When I took Curio into our home, I hoped that we could treat his infection and readily find him a new home. After all, he is an incredibly personable, outgoing feline. However, the underlying sinus infection persisted. After treatment for well over a year, Curio is finally completely free of his chronic sinus infection and available for adoption. He is neutered and up-to-date on his vaccinations including rabies, distemper, and FeLV. Curio has tested negative for FIV/FeLV. He consistently uses a litterbox and is fond of cats and dogs and people. Adoption fee: $50.


Benson: ADOPTED

Benson is a precious approximately 6-month-old kitten who has been successfully transitioned from feral to housecat. He LOVES food and LOVES affection, so we have had an easy time getting him adjusted to life indoors. The dear boy has been neutered, vaccinated against rabies, and dewormed. He has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Benson uses the litterbox faithfully and loves to snuggle. He is a bit shy around strangers, choosing to hang out in the room and observe rather than seeking loving from people he doesn't know. But he will take treats from strangers. Yep, Benson's food motivated. Adoption Fee: $50.


Sigyn (SEE-gyn): ADOPTED

Sigyn and her two brothers turn 8 weeks old on May 18th and will be available for adoption at that point. Sigyn is a soft, lovable girl with beautifully tipped, fluffy fur. Sigyn is a quiet kitten, a smidge shy, and oh-so sweet. Sigyn eats both wet and dry food, loves to play, and uses the litterbox consistently. Adoption Fee: $50, fully refundable with verifiable proof of spay.


Loki: ADOPTED

Loki turns 8 weeks old on May 18th and will be available or adoption at that point. Loki has an adventuresome personality, enjoys exploring and discovering his world. He's a bit of a goofball, too. Loki eats both wet and dry food and uses the litterbox consistently. Adoption Fee: $50, fully refundable with verifiable proof of neuter.


Thor: ADOPTED

Thor turns 8 weeks old on May 18th and will be available for adoption at that point. Thor loves cuddling and happily crawls into a lap for a snooze after a romp. He loves food and eats both wet and dry food and uses the litterbox consistently. Adoption Fee: $50, fully refundable with verifiable proof of neuter.


Maverick

Maverick is a 7- to 8-month old kitten who has been transitioning from feral to friendly. Maverick now LOVES to cuddle. His favorite time? First thing in the morning. Once I stir, Maverick climbs up to my arms and rubs his head under my chin, rolling and purring and basking in loving. Maverick, however, does not show well. Whenever people visit, Maverick hides. We are hoping that he overcomes his fear of strangers and will continue to work with him. Maverick has been neutered, dewormed, and vaccinated against rabies. He consistently uses the litterbox. Adoption Fee: $40.


Puck: SPECIAL NEEDS

Puck is a precious 7-month-old kitten who faces bouts of eosinophilic granuloma complex. We believe her trigger is an ingredient in standard cat food and cat treats, so she is on a raw diet from Woody's Pet Food Deli. Puck turns up her nose at limited ingredient duck & pea food. Puck will always be petite in spite of eating more than any other cat in the house. Between her energy level and her metabolism, I don't ever expect Puck to reach six pounds. Right now she weighs 4.8 pounds. Puck had feline leukemia, but she has seroconverted and no longer carries the virus in her blood. She has been spayed, dewormed, vaccinated against rabies and distemper. The dear girl consistently uses the litterbox. Adoption Fee: $50.


Mr. Grigsby: SPECIAL NEEDS

Mr. Grigsby is another gregarious, outgoing fellow. People who visit to choose a home often fall in love with his handsome looks, outgoing personality, and soft fur. However, he will need a special home. After all, Mr. Grigsby is allergic to standard cat food. He can have limited ingredient duck and pea without difficulty or, what we feed him, ground up chicken from Woody's Pet Food Deli. Of note, it isn't as simple as that. Why not? Mr. Grigsby is food obsessed. He will go after any food in the sink and even has figured out ways to open cabinets (now all have magnets holding them closed). This boy will tear into bags of anything left on the counter. We do our best to keep Mr. Grigsby away from anything that will cause him to react, but he manages to get into something every six to eight months or so. When it happens, he needs to have a steroid. His face swells and his paws swell. His lips ulcerate. If Mr. Grigsby doesn't get a steroid in time, his paw pads crack and his paws become secondarily infected from walking in the litterbox. Yep, it's best to catch it early. Mr. Grigsby requires a home that can medically care for an allergic reaction. An organized kitchen is a must, one where nothing is left out for him to devour. With all that said, Mr. Grigsby is definitely worth all the extra effort. Adoption fee: $50.





MoMo: SPECIAL NEEDS

MoMo is our only declawed feline in the house. He arrived that way. MoMo, now approximately 7 years old, was found dodging cars scrounging for food in a grocery store parking lot. MoMo is a very quirky boy although his OCD tendencies are mellowing with age. MoMo does not want to live with other adult males (he will spray). He also at times prefers to use wee-wee pads over litterboxes. That has lessened with time, but MoMo still falls into a special needs category due to his unusual litter habits. MoMo lives in his own room in our home (apart from other adult males). Thankfully, he enjoys female company as well as kittens. His room is our "kitten room" whenever we have kittens available for adoption in our home. MoMo is neutered, dewormed, and up-to-date on all vaccinations including distemper and FeLV. Adoption fee: $50.
