Story
I am rehoming Tobi due to his owner moving out of FL. He is microchipped under my name and we are looking for a forever home for him. He is shy but sweet but needs a little patience when it comes to adjusting. I’d like for him to go to a home where his new owner is more experienced because bengals are not like the average house cat. Tobi is high maintenance and likes his litter box clean often. He does not like crystal litter and prefers regular clay litter. He also seems to like his privacy and is timid. I think he would fit best in a home that is child free (because he gets startled sometimes). He’d also fit best in a home where he can be the only kitty and have his own box to himself. Tobi would do great in a home with someone experienced and a little older. He’s a gentle giant with cute big ol eyes and is in need of a safe loving place to call home. ❤️

Story
Found inside "The Wall" with his sister Pink and turned into CJPaws for care. Floyd is super sweet and beautiful and LOVES to play! Born on 6.28.24 and ready soon (early-october) for their furever home and available for pre-adoption now! Babies must be adopted in pairs. Please submit an adoption application found at CJPAWS.ORG/ADOPT so we can set you up with an appointment to meet! Mother Nature Knew What She Was Doing When She Created Kittens in Litters! Kittens need interaction with other kittens for healthy social development. A kitten learns a lot in the first several months of life from their mother and littermates. Separating a kitten from their mother is often a necessity for adoption purposes, but taking it away from their littermates and isolating it can delay the kitten’s development emotionally, socially, and sometimes physically. Kittens who are able to remain with one of their littermates or a similarly-aged companion tend to be healthier and happier, and in the long run, better socialized pets than those who are isolated from others of their kind at an early age. Even loving, caring, humans are not adequate substitutes for kitten companionship. Even if a person is fortunate enough to be home quite a bit, the amount of attention a lone kitten will demand is likely to occupy more time than the person has available. A pair of kittens will definitely still want to interact with people, but can keep each other occupied. Most cats, regardless of their age, are highly sociable and are truly happier living with other cat companions. This in turn makes them better pets. Kittens are curious and crave constant stimulation. Out of boredom, a single kitten will often entertain themself by chewing plants, climbing drapes and furniture, unrolling toilet paper, exploring electrical cords and sockets, etc. Kittens who live with other kittens may sometimes do these things as well, but if they have another kitten to tumble around and play with it is less likely they’ll need to entertain themselves with behaviors like these, which can be destructive and dangerous. Kittens bite and wrestle with one another–this behavior is normal. You can’t prevent a kitten from doing what comes naturally, any more than you can force a two-year-old toddler to sit still. Though it’s not acceptable for a kitten to bite and wrestle with their human companions, in the absence of having a littermate or companion their own age to play with, this is precisely what a single kitten will want to do. Even if you are willing to allow (and can tolerate) this behavior from your kitten, by the time the kitten matures, you will end up with an adult cat who has developed very bad habits (i.e. biting and scratching as “play”). Kittens are very active at night A single kitten is likely to keep people awake at night with constant jumping, pouncing and other “hunting” behavior. With a companion to play with at night, this behavior is minimized because they will have each other to chase and play games with until they too fall asleep. A single kitten is not a good companion for an older cat Kittens have boundless energy. They want to play and run constantly which typically overwhelms and irritates an older cat. Likewise, a kitten is apt to be frustrated that their companion doesn’t have their same level of energy. At the very least, this can lead to two very unhappy cats. At worst, behavior problems such as litter box avoidance or destructive scratching can occur as one or both cats act out their frustrations on their surroundings. It’s not likely that the two will have a close, bonded relationship, even after the kitten matures, since their experiences with one another from the beginning of the relationship are likely to be negative. An older cat is better matched with a cat closer to their own age and temperament. If you chose to add a kitten to a home with an older cat, adopt a pair of kittens, not a single kitten. This ensures the energetic kittens have buddies to play with and the older cat can choose to participate in playing or not. Please follow us on Facebook where you can message questions via messenger. 100% of adoption fees directly support CJPaws, a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue headquartered in St. Petersburg, FL where we are dedicated towards improving animal welfare in our community.

Kenzo was a stray after hurricane Milton. Kenzo found his way into a doggie salon and tried to make himself at home.

Kenzo was brought to CJPaws to continue growing up as a kitten and to find his furever home! Ready soon (Beginning of December) for his furever home and available for pre-adoption now!
