Description:

NOTE: We are a very small private no-kill shelter and we are currently INUNDATED with applications for this litter from all over the state of Florida. Each application is scrutinized closely. We are all volunteers and have regular jobs too, so this application process takes time as we are doing much of it after hours. Please be aware we do full screening with your application - we check the tax rolls for your home to be sure it's not in foreclosure, we ensure you are the owner of your home, we also call your veterinarian for history of your animal care, etc.  Again, this all takes TIME. Please be patient after your application is submitted.  Additionally, many folks have mentioned our $75 adoption fee - we understand the county shelters are running specials this time of year. Most of those shelters have veterinarians who offer free services and/or they have a vet on staff and they have huge million-dollar budgets. We are a very small shelter and our foster moms pay out-of-pocket for vet care.....frankly they lose money at a our $75 adoption rate.  Most of our foster moms are short by thousands of unreimbursed dollars at year end, not to mention their time invested into each animal and its placement.  Thank you for understanding.


Kirby, Jazzy, Duffy, and Dallas were brought into Petsmart at only 2 weeks old.  A gentleman found them in his backyard, probably born from a cat that got left behind when her owners moved.  This is a  frequent occurrence in today's economy and some people's total disregard for animals.

These kittens are not only beautiful, but have a wonderful personality.  They purr as soon as they are picked up or petted and can't wait to for you to do so.

We would like Kirby and Duffy to be adopted together.  They are very bonded and would have a difficult time adjusting to a new home without each other.
