Description:
Please contact LaHi for more information about this pet.Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ Tide is a sweet, playful, and curious little tortoiseshell kitten who is ready to find her forever home! She was left at ARF's doorstep alongside her mom, Shelly, when she was just around 4 weeks old. Since then, Tide has blossomed into a happy and spirited kitten. Tide's favorite activities include chasing cat toys, pouncing on string toys, and using her scratching post! She also has a soft spot for squeeze treats and will run to you when she hears one being opened. While she was initially a little shy around people, Tide’s confidence has grown each day, and she's becoming more cuddly and affectionate as she settles in. After a play session, she will happily curl up with you for a nap. Shelly is an incredibly sweet and affectionate orange cat who has shown nothing but warmth and tenderness since the very beginning. This young, gentle soul will melt your heart with her soft, loving gaze and her affectionate nature. Shelly loves to be by your side, often following you around or curling up nearby for a cozy nap. She’s perfectly content being picked up and will happily rest in your arms or next to you, soaking up all the attention. Even though Shelly is still a young cat herself, she has been an amazing mom to Tide, providing all the care and comfort her kitten needs. When she’s not doting on her little one, Shelly enjoys playing with toys, watching the world outside through a window, and simply relaxing in a sunny spot. Shelly and Tide are a bonded pair. Shelly is calm, affectionate, and steady, while Tide is curious, playful, and full of energy. They are ready to bring double the love and happiness to their forever home. Shelly & Tide are micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed/neutered , and litter box trained. Shelly & Tide's combined adoption fee is $300 ($165 +$135) .
