Now you know about me, let’s hang out and tell me all about you!  Contact Best Friend Pet Adoption at adoption@bfpa.org and tell them you want to meet me.

Story
We rescued (literally) these two kitties on January 23rd. We went out for a walk with our dog, who is a Rottweiler, and heard a kitten in despair, we looked for the kitten who was crying and found it about 50 ft up a tree! When trying to coax the kitten out the tree, other neighbors commented that it had been up there for 2-days! We were dismayed to learn this! Anyway, we could not leave the kitty up the tree, so we hired a tree service and paid them to come get the kitty out of the tree. While waiting for the tree service another kitty popped out of a burrowed hole at the base of the tree. So, the tortie kitty was under the tree and the black kitty was up in the tree. Needless to say, we have them in our dog's crate, but our Rottie is struggling! We need to find a safe place for these kitties to go, we cannot keep them, and they are not safe with our rescue Rottie. They are as sweet as can be, very affectionate, litter trained and appear to in great health.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.York DOB:  April 2023 Neutered Male         Short Hair        Black You know, cuddly kitties are great, but sometimes you just need a goofball to make you laugh and lift your spirits. So, we should get to know each other. My name is York. As you can see, I am quite handsome, but I also have a very serious side. That is, I’m serious about playing! Mouse toys, string toys, jingle balls, and even a crumpled ball of paper will keep me entertained for hours!   I would love a forever home with another cat buddy (or cat-friendly dog) for me to play with. But I can be an only pet, as long as I get plenty of play (and cuddle) time. I would be a great buddy for anyone age 6 and up! Contact Best Friend Pet Adoption, and they’ll set up a time for me to show off my exceptional hunting skills for you. You can email them at adoption@bfpa.org and tell them you want to adopt YORK.   Dogs:  Must have kitty manners Other cats:  Good with others, needs a friend Kids:  Over 6 with kitty experienceVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 4:36 pm

I’m Selena. And I don’t mean to brag, but I'll check a lot of boxes off your wish list for a cat. I’m over the kitten stage but still love to play—toy springs are my favorite.  I am independent, but I would love to hang with you and catch up on our favorite shows together on the couch.  I really get along well with my foster brothers, but I’m also okay being an only kitty. I’d be great in a house or apartment—just make sure I have a window to keep an eye on the birds and squirrels! I promise to fill you in on the daily neighborhood gossip when you come home. I’m very neat and tidy in my surroundings and am great at entertaining myself.  So, let’s meet and see how our introductions go!

Just ask my foster mom; she thinks I’m awesome! I’m an active boy; let’s call me busy.  Whether it’s chores around the house, a project, or watching TV, I’ll be involved in any activity and offer helpful hints.  I get along with everyone — kids, dogs, and other cats, too.  I’m the whole package!  My energy can be kind of extra, so other pets will need to be ready for my rambunctious self. I’d love to meet you and show you all my attributes and skills.  Once I wear myself out, you’ll have a total cuddler who will catch up on the latest shows together.  So, let’s hang out and see if it’s a match! Contact Best Friend Pet Adoption (adoption@bfpa.org) and schedule a meet-and-greet!

As you can see, I’m quite handsome, but let me tell you more about me. I’m the leader of the pack: confident, kind, playful and…sometimes a bit of a daredevil! I love to run around and chase toys. I would do great in a home with a buddy to make mischief with. Another kitty would be great, but I could be friends with a dog too, given a slow introduction. I’m good with kids, but they should be at least age 6 with experience handling young cats. Get yourself a handsome little playmate with a great appetite and a big purring motor! Get in touch with the nice people at Best Friend Pet Adoption (adoption@bfpa.org) and tell them you want to set up a play date with MARIO!
