Coyote submitted photo AdoptA pEt Thank You For Another Successful Year Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays NH K NORTH HALTON KITTEN RESCUE From Everyone at Last Adoption day of the year Saturday Dec.19 People transported a mom and kittens to a rural property and left them to fend for themselves. Eventually the tiny family encountered a compassionate person who provided food and shelter until NHKR was contacted. The homeowner adopted the mom and her two offspring were taken in by a foster family. The kittens, estimated to be born in May were older and not socialized or accustomed to living in a home but they exhibited signs of wanting to be friendly. With time, patience and kindness, Dusk and Twilight have become contented house cats and are ready to be adopted. Initially the girls will be cautious in their new home. But this will be overcome by their affection for people. They are gentle sweet girls who enjoy extended lap snuggles , they can be enticed to snuggle by tapping the couch and calling them. They are content to just be in the vicinity of people although they sometimes follow people for some extra attention. Even when startled or upset there is no biting or scratching from either girl, they are very passive. The perfect time for trimming their nails and some grooming is after play time. They are clean with their food area and litter box. And they are quiet cats, with occasional little meows at meal time. The girls are interested in people food but they can be led away from the table. Dusk and Twilight play nicely together - they have play time in the morning and then again at bed time. In their foster home they sleep in "the kitten room" instead of playing on beds when the foster people want to sleep. When playing, they are respectful of people's belongings, no furniture scratching and they make use of their tall climber to sleep up high. The girls are lower energy cats and they would enjoy a quieter home with gentle people. They have not encountered a dog while in NHKR care, other friendly cats would be fine. NHKR's adoption fee is $160. per cat which includes spay/neutering, age appropriate vaccinations, parasite treatments and microchipping.
