My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I am such an angel I am told, and I am a lap-sitter, too! Shadow is my name and I have a white halo marking on my head, too! I prefer to hang back in the shadows and watch the others play and then dash into play with the rest of them! I just don’t want to be the first to be tackled and be on the bottom!

Nuzzling and being close is high on my list and I sit on laps, too. I have a very pretty black coloring, too. I am affectionate and attention seeking once I warmed up to you. My ideal family would be someone that could carve out special lap time when they are home. I would be fine the hours that a person works, but, please when I am young come right home after work.

More about this rescue

We adopt kittens in pairs believing all young beings should have a playmate of the same species, similar age.

Our foster parents help match the pairs of "best play buddies)

The animals are in private homes and well-loved.

All the rescue organizations are not the same. We all get them from the same places, but well-socialized kittens are not easy to come by.

We specialize in “pet-quality” cats and kittens. A pet-quality cat has had positive experiences with humans and has felt loved. Many of our kittens like to be carried and held and would make great family members.

Kittens that have not been well-socialized or handled a lot avoid people, hide and are jumpy and are often described as independent and aloof or abused.

Why do we promote our kittens in pairs?

All young animals need a playmate. They learn social skills through play-fighting. Kittens need an “equal energy” playmate to interact with. Just like kids picking friends, they pick someone who likes to do the same things. Biting and attacking ankles may be cute when a kitten is small, but a full grown cat can bite hard. Behaviors that the public dislike are created by not making the best choice for the animals. Adopting a pair of young animals that have the same energy level that were well-socialized is the best choice.
