Echo loves to play, act the clown and is shy with humans, hence he needs a home with an experienced adopter. Fully vetted, tested negative for FIV/FeLV. He is about six months old.

Viper is an adventurer. As soon as we open his crate, he is trying to find his way out. He is affectionate and playful once he gets a chance to know you. He shares his crate with his brother, Scooter. Unfortunately, Viper is a special-needs kitty. He and his brother both tested positive for feline leukemia (probably contracted from their mother). Unfortunately, this means they cannot go into a home with other cats unless they, too, are positive for FeLV. (FeLV is a feline virus only affecting other cats, and not transmittable to humans, dogs or other animals). We would love to find them a home where they can run free and be the little bundles of energy they want to be.

Dick, domestic shorthair

Dick is an adorable male domestic shorthair kitten being cared for at Companion Animal Trust.

Dick is vaccinated.

From Dick's current caretaker:
