Kieran and Aspen are waiting

Kieran and Aspen are still waiting for their forever home!  This brother and sister pair are part of the alley cats a volunteer brought to us this August (see previous post here and check out their siblings here). 

Kieran has really blossomed in his foster home.  He LOVES being petted, anytime and anywhere.   Fostermom has nicknamed him  "Purr-man" as his purr is as loud as a lawnmower!  He loves interacting with the two resident cats and his sister, Aspen.  Aspen is the shierof the two kittens, but loves being wherever the action is.  She is most often found in the room with her foster humans, observing everyone with giant eyes, or snuggled up with resident cats for a nap.

Both of them LOVE to play - they will chase rolling balls, jump on moving feet under blankets, tackle each other and the resident cats, and really love the birdie toy.  

The kittens are healthy and active and ready for their forever home today!  Please email hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com to meet this pair today.

Kieran and Aspen (2 of Fab 4)

Thanks to a community volunteer, we recently acquired four young kittens who were born in an alley in Hyde Park. All four kittens are gray/ brown tabbies, weighed about 2.5 pounds, and are currently about twelve-sixteen weeks old. They have progressed a lot in the past few weeks in foster homes, from scared little fluff balls to playful sleek kittens!

As per our usual policy, we have split the four kittens up into two pairs, and will be placing them as pairs into their forever homes. Meet Pair One: Kieran and Aspen.

Keiran is extremely bold, adventuresome and is constantly seeking new horizons. Playtime is his specialty. He is bold, exploring the foster house outside of his safe bedroom and running right up to the resident cats. He loves the laser mouse, the bird toy, and any strings around. His littermate Aspen is named for her snowy coat.   When approached with food, she eagerly gets up and without hesitation will advance to nibble out of your hand. She is quick and sensitive; she appreciates gentle advances and nuzzling for a nap on a belly or in your neck.  She has recently revealed she too loves to chase the laser!

All four kittens have been neutered/spayed and microchipped, and will get their booster shots this week.  Look for a blog post on their siblings, Swiss Miss and Parsley, next.  To meet either of these adorable pairs, email hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com.

Thanks to Jodi for the donation of cat food and treats!

Swiss Miss and Parsley (2 of Fab 4)

Swiss Miss and Parsley are two kittens trapped in Kenwood over the summer, siblings of Kieran and Aspen.

Swiss Miss is a thoughtful philosopher of a kitten. She has slightly shaggy fur, longer and a touch more wild-looking than her littermates. This little girl will play, especially with cat-and-mouse stalk and ambush games, but that is not where the magic lies for her. She is a cuddler and a lover. She adores scratches and rubs, and will literally melt into a cuddle position, and then turn to gaze up into your eyes.

Her brother Parsley has a high opinion of himself and requires a bit of space and respect, but quickly learns to accept your petting and playtime. After some introductory time to adjust, he quickly relaxes and enjoys sitting on a lap.  Email us at hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com to meet either pair of kittens today!

Thanks to Amy for the donation of some cool cat supplies and to Mike for the carrier. Mike, we wish you and Madison all the best in your journey.
