My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Shelby & Shawn

Born October 2024, American Bobtail - Female - Gray Tabby (Shelby), American Bobtail - Male - Orange Tabby (Shawn)

Shelby and Shawn are a bonded pair and must be adopted together!

Hi there! We’re Shelby and Shawn, two adorable bobtail kittens looking for our forever home. Yep, you read that right—we’ve got those super cute little bobtails that make us extra special!

I’m Shelby, the sweet and snuggly one of the pair. My favorite thing is curling up next to my human and purring away. I can be a little shy at first, but when I’m with my brother Shawn, I feel so much more confident. Plus, how can you resist my bobtail? It adds a little extra charm to my already sweet personality.

Shawn here is the adventurous, action-packed half of our duo. I’m always on the move, exploring, playing, and being the life of the party. My bobtail doesn’t slow me down—it just makes me even more unique! I love chasing balls, swatting at wand toys, and zooming around with all the energy a kitten can muster.

We’re lap kitties who adore being petted, brushed, and picked up. We love everyone we meet—kids, other cats, visitors, you name it! And when it’s time to settle down, we’ll snuggle right up and show off our adorable bobtails while we nap.

If you’re looking for two loving companions who are as special as they are playful, we’re your perfect pair. Let’s meet soon—we can’t wait to show you how much love and fun we’ll bring to your home!

  • Shelby - Snuggly, Purrball, A tad shy at first

Our adoption facility hours and location can be found on our website. https://carenorthshore.org/care-adoption-center/

Additional adoption info

See our process and policies on our website.
https://carenorthshore.org/adoption-information/

Our fees include a full medical exam by a veterinarian. This includes a Feline Leukemia and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) test for cats, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, deworming and Spay/Neuter. Dogs receive a Heartworm Check, Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, Canine Flu Vaccine, deworming, and Kennel Cough preventative. Our modest adoption fees do not cover the procedures and vet work that we provide the animals. We fundraise to make up the difference. Any ongoing medical needs that C.A.R.E. is aware of are explained fully, (including daily medicine costs), to the potential adopter, and become the responsibility of the adopter.
