Please no phone calls to the store, our team at Ten Lives is the best source to answer any questions you have!*Archer has an appointment in Providence, Rhode Island for his neuter on December 16, 2024. This appointment is included in the cost of adoption, but the adopter is responsible for getting the cat to/from the appointment (8 am drop off, 2 pm pick up).We are unable to reschedule this due to the limited availability of low-cost spay/neuter appointments. If you cannot accommodate this appointment, we ask that you consider adopting a kitty that is already spayed/neutered.___________________________Spay & Neuter Disclosure:To facilitate adoptions and open more foster space, this kitten is being adopted with a spay-neuter adoption agreement. An appointment for services has been scheduled and the adopter will be responsible for transportation and post-surgical care. Appointment information will be provided during the application process and the spay/neuter cost is inclusive of the adoption fee. The adopter is responsible for providing an e-collar and monitoring the incision site for infection. Any post-surgical complications are the responsibility of the adopter and should be treated by the adopter's vet. If you are unable to accommodate a weekday appointment, we kindly ask that you consider another adoptable cat who is already spayed or neutered. ___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here:  https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/Please Note:If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications.

Meet Mora! Mora is a beautiful 5-year-old black cat who is ready to steal your heart! Mora is a friendly, social, and playful girl who’s been patiently waiting for her forever home. She’s the kind of cat who will greet you with a happy purr and a gentle nudge as soon as you walk into the room—there’s no such thing as a stranger in Mora's world! Mora absolutely LOVES people and thrives on attention. She’s incredibly affectionate and enjoys spending time with her human friends, whether it’s cuddling on the couch or playing with her favorite toys. Her playful side shines through when she chases after feather toys and pounces on anything that moves—she's got plenty of energy to burn and will keep you entertained for hours! Not only is Mora social and fun, but she’s also incredibly adaptable. She gets along well with other pets, so if you already have a furry friend at home, Mora may just be the perfect addition to your family.
