Ralph Clawford is a very friendly and playful kitten! We suspect him to be about 10 weeks old (as of the week of November 11). He has a beautiful medium to longhair fur coat. He is currently in a foster home with our other kitten, Kendal Snow.
Ralph and Kendal did test positive for on their fecal test for coccidia and giardia. They have completed their treatment for coccidia, but they have to have another round of dewormer for giardia. Coccidia can transfer to other cats, and giardia is contagious to other animals and to people so we always want to be clear about this prior to adoption. Transfer of the parasites to other pets and to humans is through ingestion (eating) the contaminated feces. We recommend cleaning the litter box right away, washing your hands well after handling, and making sure Ralph doesn’t have any fecal material on his paws so when he licks his paws when cleaning himself, he isn't re-infecting himself.
The $125.00 adoption fee ( payable by cash or check only ) includes: spay/neuter; vaccinations; microchip; fecal testing w/ giardia, flea prevention, and FIV/FeLV testing.
Our adoption application may be found by going to: www.headinhomerescue.org; then click on the link to the adoption application. Cats for adoption may be seen by appointment only following an approved application. Please note: while we welcome out of state applications, we do not ship our animals and require adopters to come to Holland to finalize any adoption.
