My story

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

 



Meet Bitsy, the tuxedo kitten with a big personality and a heart full of mischief! This playful little guy is always up to something fun and silly, guaranteed to make you laugh with his antics. Whether he's chasing toys, exploring every nook and cranny, or just showing off, Bitsy's lively energy will bring endless joy and entertainment to your home. If you're looking for a kitten with a lot of character, Bitsy is the one! Ringworm care can actually be a breeze with the right set-up and if you have the time to dedicate to it, but can be a bit tedious since it can spread easily to any living creature and requires some caution to prevent that. Ideally we would love to find a home without any really young kids or other pets, just to limit the risk of exposure, unless the home has enough space to keep everyone fully and safely separated. PAWS provides all of the medications and other treatments needed at our clinic, so please read through the info linked below and if you feel like your home would be a fit you can apply and reach out to us to learn more!

Age: ~3 months old

How I came to PAWS: Found Stray

Animal ID#: A56597

Location: I am in foster care and am not at the shelter. Please email adoptions@phillypaws.org to learn more about me!

**This/These pet(s) are currently being treated for ringworm, a mild fungal infection of the skin that usually clears up within 6-8 weeks of starting treatment. All the follow-up care we provide for your ringworm pet is free of charge at a PAWS facility while they finish their treatment with you, and we are with you every step of the way! You can learn more about adopting a pet with ringworm here.**

**Because this/these pet(s) aren't yet altered, they are only eligible for adoption via our Pre-Adopt program, which will require an extra verification step as well as a $100 deposit per animal that is fully refunded after their spay/neuter surgeries. Any additional questions about this can be covered when you reach out about them!**
