Hello! I am Dell, I may be a shy guy at the beginning, but have a sweet purr and am playful once I am comfortable. I will need a patient family that is willing to work with me and reap the rewards at the end of the patience and love. It is so worth it!

 

Foster Notes: Dell has come a long way in building his trust and showing his personality with me since coming to my home. He will still run and hide with new people, however is getting better and better with each new visitor. He will be shy at first but if you put in the effort and have the patience he will blossom. He has become very affectionate with me as his main source of contact. He will need someone patient as it will take some time for him to adjust and feel comfortable. Once he is comfortable however, he becomes affectionate and playful. It is expected that he will hide and hiss and potentially swat in a new home at first , so a room to start out in is ideal to start to build the trust. Dell and his sister Lenovo are in an adult only home so they have not been tested with children. A quiet home with older children should be ok with proper introduction and time. They have not been tested with dogs and a home without dogs is a requirement. He would benefit from having another feline in the home to show him the ropes. He has clean litter habits.

 

ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee is $225.00 (which includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner). There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
