You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. *This animal is located at our same-day adoption center partner, Coon Rapids PetSmart. Please contact this location prior to visiting to ensure this animal is still available. A paper adoption application will be completed on site so please do not submit an online adoption application. For more information on adopting from one of our adoption center partners, please visit our Adoption Center Animals page.   Lani is from a stray surrender with 1 brother. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can   donate   to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.    Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 7, 2024, 8:38 am

Story
Chanel is about four years old. A young female kitty who loved to play! She came from a shelter originally and from a home where owner developed cat allergies. She came from a home with other another cat, kids and family. She is up to date on all shots, spayed and litter trained. My schedule and lifestyle isn't meeting her needs and may be moving. I am working outside the home and she would do best with. household who can give her more attention! A home where people work remote, have other pets, kids or the time to spend with her. She is a sweet ten pound Turkish angora/mix. She will definitely talk to you and likes to vocalize her needs. I believe it's because my schedule isn't stimulation her enough day and night. Looking for the right home and environment for her as it's hard to give her up but I'm looking for her forever home and the right fit!
