Story
We're sending a bat signal out, because Dark Knight 🦇 is ready to bring in the new year! This 2.5 year old justice driven vigilante will soar the cat condos as he keeps a close eye on the catnip mouse civilians below. His reward? Soft pets from his favorite person for being the best boy! Dark Knight has only been with us a short time but so far has shown us he is affectionate, gentle and sweet. He is a little reserved at first, but who isn't? Underneath that bat cape is a mellow boy who has great potential to be snuggly. He is looking for a calm, peaceful environment where he can settle in and be your forever superhero. If you think you could be Dark Knight's match, send in a bat signal application today!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Story
💚 Meet Emerald- a rare gem gleaming with sparkle! 💚Emerald is a 1-year old charming, sweet, and playful girl who is excited for her next chapter . She loves to play, get lots of chin and cheek scratches (unless she’s too busy playing!) She is still learning how to accept affection from humans but making amazing progress. She isn’t really shy, she’s actually quite brave and curious, but she needs someone who will go slow and be understanding of her boundaries. For now, she prefers soft voices and and calm surroundings as she continues to show off her glowing purr-sonality.  As an FeLV+ cat, she will need to be an only cat or with another FeLV+ cat, but will also do just fine on her own.Emerald is ready to shine in her forever home where she can be spoiled and loved. If you think you could be her match, fill out an application today!FELV is a virus that affects cats. It can not be passed onto humans or dogs.

Story
Littermates: Shelley, Bay, Pirate, BreezySailor is a classic orange kitten through and through: friendly, confident, and always ready to make new friends. He’s playful and curious, loves to explore his surroundings, and has a knack for turning everyday moments into adventures. Whether he’s chasing toys, wrestling with his kitten pals, or soaking up attention, Sailor brings a warm, happy energy wherever he goes.He does well with other cats and would likely be a great match for a home with kids or dogs with proper introductions. Sailor is social, affectionate, and eager to be part of a busy, loving household.If you’re looking for a cheerful first mate who’s equal parts fun and cuddly, Sailor is ready to sail straight into his adoptive home.Sailor has an appointment in Providence, Rhode Island, for their spay/neuter on Jan 27. This appointment is included in the cost of adoption, but the adopter is responsible for getting the cat to/from the appointment (8 am drop off, 130 pm pick up).We are unable to reschedule this due to the limited availability of low-cost spay/neuter appointments. If you cannot accommodate a weekday appointment, we ask that you consider adopting a kitty that is already spayed/neutered.Sailor is one of our CATalyst cats—cats who help us catalyze change in our community. At Ten Lives, we’re committed to saving the most at-risk cats, many of whom require extensive medical care and long stays in foster homes. By choosing to adopt a high-demand cat like Sailor, you're not only giving his the loving home she deserves—you’re also helping to fund care for more vulnerable cats, like our Forgotten Felines. Thank you for helping us continue our life-saving work!___________________________CATalyst cats:At Ten Lives, we believe in saving the most at-risk cats of our community. Many times, these cats require extraordinary medical care and extensive stays in their foster homes before they are ready for adoption. But we don’t think time or money should ever get in the way of a cat receiving the care they deserve! To help us care for these cats, we have increased fees for other cats who are in high demand–such cats aid us in catalyzing change within our community. When you adopt a CATalyst cat, you aren’t just providing a forever home for them; you’re helping many other cats at Ten Lives, like our Forgotten Felines!Thank you for allowing us to continue our life-saving work!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Story
7-month-old Agnes is ready to light up your life! This special girl is looking for an equally special person to spend all her days with. Agnes has been making progress but is still a shy girl who will need a calm, gentle routine to keep that confidence building. She can never say no to a squeeze up treat on a spoon, and is showing that playful side with her fishing pole toy! Agnes will do best in a patient home that will give her the time and hidey spots she needs to observe from a distance and get comfy. She gets along with other kitties but has not been tested with dogs. Young children are likely not a good match given her reserved personality and hopes to find a quiet spot to land. If you think you could be a match for Agnes, she hopes you will fill out an application today!*You can meet Agnes 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 have!______________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!
