My story

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

Yoshi is an adorable, soft and fluffy, solid gray, 6 month old kitten with dilute tabby stripes and the cutest ear tuft. He and his brother, Iggy were part of a TNR project but quickly let us know they wanted the good life inside, so they sport the jaunty eartip of a community cat but are experts in giving all the love and snuggles of a house cat in training. Yoshi lives for love! He may be a little nervous at first, but once you have his trust he will approach his human for pets any chance he can get, flopping over with all four legs in the air for tummy scratches, or climbing into your lap for his favorite Churu or Greenies treats and even more pets, pushing his little face into your hand, telling you to never stop!

Yoshi’s other love is play, he is full of rambunctious kitten energy and loves to play, chasing the wand toy and playing soccer with his favorite pom-pom ball. Yoshi is super chill and doesn’t need to be the center of attention. He is quite happy watching the birds at the feeder, snoozing on the sunny window perch or caving in his safe den. He gets along well with all of the resident cats in his foster home, although he can easily be overshadowed by very strong assertive cats, so would love to be adopted with his brother Iggy , to whom he is bonded, or would do well with a playful, easy going, older cat in his new home.

Yoshi will need a kitten proofed “base camp” and some hiding spots at first until he feels confident enough to have the run of the house. Yoshi will do well with older, gentle children who can respect his boundaries and a patient, cat savvy adopter who has the time and patience to build a trusting relationship with him. Dogs are untested. Yoshi’s estimated date of birth is mid-April, 2024. Kitty Bio #980EP-Yo.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The goal of our adoption process is to place the right cat(s) with the right person. These are the steps:

  1. Pick out a cat or think about the qualities you want in a cat.

  2. Complete our adoption questionnaire.

  3. Meet the cat over a video call with the foster parent or in person to see if the cat is a good fit for your household.

  4. Meet with an adoption counselor over a video call for a virtual home visit to go over a safety checklist.

  5. We will bring the cat to your home to complete the adoption.
