Story
Fifi and DeeDee are a pair of bonded babes looking for a home together! These sweet, lovable ladies are as adorable as they come and bring double the charm, double the cuddles, and double the fun. Fifi and DeeDee love each other dearly and will need to be adopted as a pair so they can keep each other company. These two girlies would do best with cat savvy kiddos who understand that every cat needs a little time to settle in. They have no experience with other animals, so if there are furry friends already in the home, slow and patient introductions will be important to help everyone feel comfortable. If you're ready to welcome two precious besties into your life, Fifi and DeeDee are ready to fill your home with sweetness and love 💕 ⭐ If you’re interested in adopting, please fill out an adopter profile at www.parl.org/adopt and stop by during our open hours! ⭐

🐠 Meet Fishie! 🐠4-year-old Fishie is swimming her way to the adoption scene! A fan of belly runs, Fishie enjoys being near her people and soaking up all the attention she could dream of. Brushing, soft pets, and lots of love are just some of her hobbies. She is very interested in engaging with people, especially if treats or wand toys are offered!Fishie can usually be found sitting somewhere high, feeling like the queen she is. She has done fine with calm dogs, but would likely prefer to be your one and only feline companion. Don't worry, she's got plenty of love to go around!If you're feeling a wave of love, it probably means you should fill out an application for Fishie today!*You can meet Fishie at PetSmart in Warwick today. Please avoid phone calls to the store, our team at Ten Lives is the best source to answer any questions you hvae. ___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here:  https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/Please Note:If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications. Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed. About Ten Lives:Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat. Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience! All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.
