My story

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

Possum is a sweet, typical toddler boy of a kitten. He comes running to greet you at the front door when you get home and is not shy about letting you know when he needs some attention. If you're standing up, he'll put his two front paws on your leg and look up at you with a silent meow until you pick him up; if you're already sitting down, he'll run right up onto your chest and sniff your face until you pet him so he can snuggle down for a nap. Possum also loves to chase after and play with his sister, Pipsqueak. He is a bit shy at first, but takes his role of big brother seriously and will put on a brave face if he thinks she needs protecting. They are both very helpful when it comes to doing laundry and will make sure you got all of the socks out of the dryer!

Possum and Pipsqueak are a bonded pair and need to be adopted together. Apply to adopt them here and an adoption coordinator will contact you!

Additional adoption info

Prior to adoption, every CARE cat/kitten has received a thorough exam from a veterinarian, has tested negative for FIV/Felv (except as otherwise noted), been spayed/neutered if old enough, microchipped, dewormed, given flea preventative, and been inoculated against distemper. Rabies vaccine is given if the feline is over 4 months. Any other desirable medical attention has also been provided. Also, each cat/kitten has spent its rescued time in a private home in foster care being loved and assessed for temperament and personality, needs, likes and dislikes.

After your approval by our volunteers, a legal contract is signed with an adoption donation attached (this donation helps defray the medical costs incurred).
The adoption fee is a Donation.
