Bowie is an adorable, happy, loving cat! This gorgeous mostly white cat was hanging around a school, greeting all the kids when they arrived in the mornings. Someone was leaving plates of dry food out for him in the adjacent alley, where he would stay when not hanging around with the kids.
Bowie has proven to be a total love panther in foster. Since he's recovered from his neuter and out of his cone he has started hanging out with the other foster cats in his rescuer's home. He loves to play and chase the willing ones and is a calm enough presence not to get into any fights with any of the others (usually). He would do fine, likely, with another cat, though it would depend on the personality so a trial is recommended.
Bowie is totally affectionate with humans and follows people around, chatting away and looking for a chance to sit on a lap for snuggles. That said, he is mellow enough to give people space when they're busy busy. He is grateful for whatever time he can share and greets people with excited kisses and cuddles when the opportunity comes.
Bowie can be occasionally quite vocal but only when he's upset or not getting his way. Initially I had him in a big cage while awaiting his testing and vaccinations and he would howl loudly at the forced separation. He still gets loud but only on occasion like when he has to be shut in another room to eat (so he doesn't gobble everyone else's food), but then quickly calms and quiets.
Bowie is FIV and FeLV negative, neutered, and up to date on shots. Email adopt@kittykind.org to apply!

Their adoption process
Additional adoption info
All cats and kittens are vaccinated and tested for FELV (feline leukemia) and FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus), and if old enough, are neutered or spayed.
We will ask you some questions about your home and we will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Adopting a pet is a long-term commitment. We ask you to sign the KittyKind Adoption Agreement.
We will always take a cat back FOR ANY REASON. We will also work with you to place her in another good home if (after a period of adjustment) the adoption doesn't work out.
We do ask for a $125 adoption fee to help cover some of our food and veterinary expenses. For certain purebred cats (Siamese, Persian, Maine Coon, etc.), we request a $150 - $300 adoption fee.

More about this rescue
KittyKind is a New York City not-for-profit, no-kill, all-volunteer cat rescue and adoption group. All of us at KittyKind have opened our hearts and homes — and emptied our pockets — to save thousands of cats from neglect or abuse. Every cat we rescue is given food, shelter, medical care, a safe place to lay his or her head and most importantly of all, a reason to purr. We do not believe in rescuing a cat or kitten only to euthanize it if it has a broken leg or needs extended nursing care. We never give up if there is a chance of saving them. We take responsibility for each and every life we save and if a cat or kitten is unadoptable, they have a home with us for life.
We believe that animals are not property to be discarded, disposed of, or killed just for the crime of being homeless or unwanted. We believe that people should be friends, caretakers and protectors of animals. We believe that we must take responsibility for the life of every animal we rescue who through no fault of their own, is abandoned, sick, disabled, old or unable to care for themselves. We are dedicated to relieving their suffering, providing food, shelter, medical care and comfort until we can place them in a safe and loving home.
