Celi

American Shorthair

Male, Kitten

Gainesville, FL

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Celi is a very sweet, calm-tempered kitten, about 5 mos old now. He is playful with other cats and people, loves cuddles, and handles the rough play he gets from my 4 year old outstandingly. Ideally I would love to see him rehomed with his sister, Korra, but this is not a necessity. He is fixed, is currently up to date on shots and dewormer, and is currently fed Purina One with wet food each night. He is litter box trained and has not had any accidents the last 2-3 months. He would be an outstanding family kitty, or just for someone who loves cuddles. He loves to nuzzle up on your neck and purr himself to sleep.

Good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Korra is a sweet, loving, and playful kitten, about 5 months old. Ideally, I would like to see her go with her brother, Celi, however it's not a requirement. I saved her from a bad situation as well as her brother, but she is very healthy now and is wel trained. She is very affectionate and talkative, and loves to play. She is good with kids, but doesn't care for the rough handling and play of kids younger than 5. My older child of 12 and her get along swimmingly. We need to find her a new home because we cannot afford to take care of more cats, otherwise I would hate to lose her. She is a sweet little girl looking for a loving home!

Story

Hi! Gift is a 5-year-old boy. I adopted him in January 2024 when he was a 5-month kitten. We have lived together for 5 years, and he is a very friendly and lovely cat. He has been living well with other cats and dogs of my roommates for over one year. Due to a recent change in my health, I've developed an allergy to cats. It's a difficult decision, but I want to ensure Gift continues to live a happy and comfortable life in a loving home. If you feel that you could be the perfect match for Gift, please reach out! I'd be happy to tell you more about him and arrange a meeting.

Story

Echo was born to a stray mother in the garage of my mom's home. She is three years old (will be four in January), and is very docile, sweet, and affectionate. She needs very gentle and tender care. When she is approached, she needs to be approached very carefully because she gets scared of people easily. She loves cuddling and petting!

Story

My wife and I rescued a pregnant cat and 10 days later 4 beautiful kittens were born on August 30, 2024. Two have been adopted so far. The mother and all kittens have been checked thoroughly by a veterinarian and are free of disease, including feline leukemia. Initial rounds of shots and deworming have been completed. There is no adoption fee, we just want them to have a great home. The mother is likely 1.5 years old and will also be available for adoption. The kittens and the mother are very affectionate and social.🐈‍⬛

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Hobbes, the snuggle chunk. This heavy boy spends a good deal of time snoozing and grooming. However, his favorite place is by the side of his person. He is a snuggly lap cat. He's very excited when you come home and will greet you at the door. He has been around both dogs and cats, but would likely prefer a home where he is the only cat. He gets jelly when others get his attention, but has done well around other male and senior cats. Hobbes also has experience around children, but a home with older children who are more experienced with respecting boundaries would be best. Hobbes likes the idea of being outside, but is strictly an indoor cat so being aware of him near doors is a must. He enjoys being in a screened porch, and will usually wait for the invitation before cautiously venturing out. This guy wouldn't make it outside full time! Hobbes would make a wonderful addition to any home willing to give him lots of love and snuggles! Apply for a meet and greet today.

Story

Turnip was a small baby. The runt of his litter, really. He was so blessed that he found his way into his foster families life. They took great care of him and he has flourished! He is growing up in foster care, though. He is almost a year old ... someone needs to give this guy a chance! He is a playful boy! So smart and such a sweetheart! Update: Turnip has become picky with his litter. He has started having accidents and not using the little box 100% of the time. Sometimes will poop outside the litter box. We are working with him to determine what may be causing this. ##1089206##
