Story
Hi I'm Felix! born late September 2023. My foster parents found me when I was 4 weeks old outside mewing my little heart out, and they decided to raise me to an adoptable age. They have worked with me to learn my manners and learn how to be a good boy and an indoor kitty. I always use the litterbox! I am a wild and crazy kind of guy. My foster parents think I am funny. I am very appealing and cute with a lot of personality! And I am a good lookin' fella sorta a grey tuxedo cat. I am a good hunter for an indoor kitty. I'm not a picky eater and have no known health problems. I would need a home with an experienced cat owner. I stll get a little feisty and need a reminder that such behavior is not appropriate. But hey I'm still a kitten! I'm alpha male 100% so *maybe* ok with another male cat who would agree I am the boss. I'm ready for my fur-ever home. Are you my next adventure? Note: not a snuggler - yet. I'm trying to learn how to be close.

Story
This is one of 15 kittens found underneath a front porch in the area. Still young enough to be socialized and will start to warm up quick. She is a bit feisty until you pick her up, then immediately starts purring. She will be a cuddler when she's older for sure! Adoption costs cover first vet appointment including first round of testing, vaccines, deworming, ear cleaning, nails cut, flea & tick preventative. She is too young to be spayed currently but we do know of many lost cost alternatives we could refer you to when she is around 6 months.
