American Shorthair kittens & cats in Largo, Florida

I need to find my cat a new home, ideally with multiple people in the household so she can receive the attention she needs. I have allergies and between that and her high strung nature, I cannot be a home for her any longer. She is declawed (this was done last year because of how destructive she was with claws).

He is a 4 year old cat, very sweet, kinda shy. He is very sweet and loveable. I just want him to go to a good home.

I found Daphne outside when I was brooding ducklings. I didn’t want a cat getting any ideas about an easy-access snack, so I brought her inside & realized she was pregnant. She spent a few days isolated from my other animals, but eventually I was able to set up an indoor nesting area for her. I did take her to the vet once, she does not have worms or feline leukemia. They did an xray to check on the kittens, but didn’t mention anything abnormal about her anatomy when they saw it. She has not been spayed yet & had her kittens going on 9 weeks ago. She is an absolutely lovely cat, she loves to be paid attention to & pet, she doesn’t fuss when held, she lets me clip her nails & get her eye boogies off easily. She hasn’t once gone to the bathroom other than in a litter box & gets along without any issues with other cats. The only caveat is she does NOT LIKE DOGS. She got better at tolerating their existence, but when they get near her she hisses, growls, & sometimes throws claws.

I am just a baby and very timid. I am looking for someone patient who will love me, keep me safe, and enjoy my companionship. *** To apply to adopt one of our animals, please go to our website, http://www.cjpaws.org and visit the Adoptions page. *** Pets can be viewed by appointment only and an approved application is required to make an appointment to meet one of our animals.

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are bonded brothers Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are bonded brothers Babies need to be adopted in pairs. Will be ready for adoption by the end of July and are available for pre-adoption. 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.
