Meet Pumpkin

Pumpkin and her sister, Brownie, and brother, Eduardo, were born in a drainage ditch. Their mother cat was a feral, outside kitty who was being fed at a local senior center. We were able to catch mom and pull the kittens to safety up through the drainage grate. We had been having a lot of rain, so they would have been flooded out if we had not rescued them.  The kittens have been in foster care since the beginning of October when they were only about four weeks old. Sadly, their mother cat escaped before we could get her vet care. But these babies will all have happy endings. The siblings are about 10 weeks old. We think they were born around the middle of September. Brownie is a beautiful brown/black long haired female. Pumpkin a a medium haired tortoiseshell female, and Eduardo is a long haired gray male.  The kittens have had first vaccines, have been tested (negative) for feline leukemia/FIV, dewormed, and treated preventatively for fleas. They will be spayed and neutered on December 10 and will then be ready to go to forever homes.  The kittens have been around another cat, older children, and were in a busy household. They have not been around dogs, but they are young enough that they can easily be introduced to a dog. They are friendly and loving and liked to be picked up and cuddled.  If you would like more information on the ditch babies, please email us at [email protected]. We can then also send you an adoption application. 

Adoption Process
Adoption application. We check references and call vet. There is a $75 adoption fee, but all of our cats are sterilized, vaccinated, and tested for feline leukemia/FIV prior to adoption. We do not adopt to anyone who wants to declaw, but we do not advertise that fact until after the person fills out the application--we do not want them to lie to us if they know they cannot get the cat and declaw. We have them sign an agreement that the cat will come back to us if for any reason they do not want it.
