See Piper’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Piper (we call him Pepper) is a sweet, playful kitten, who enjoys to wrestle with his siblings. He has the most beautiful eyes and super soft fur! He likes to cuddle and sleep curled up in a blanket close to you. He gets along with our dog and would enjoy a home with some furry friends. He is a very sweet kitten. I love how eager he is to play with his siblings, I think he would do really well in a home with other cats. Pepper will be neutered on October 17 and can be adopted after that. He is currently six weeks old.   Topaz is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.   Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
