Kitten (5 months 16 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 13 mi from Ephrata


Teddy is a very sweet and shy kitten, about 5 months old. He was in foster care with two younger kittens and they all got along, but they were very active and Teddy is not.
Teddy loves to sit at the window and watch and observe what’s going on outside. He does play with soft mice toys and balls. He likes to spend time near the adult cats in his foster home and is respectful of them. He ignores the dog.
Teddy is still unsure of his world at times but with patience and lots of nurturing he becomes braver and more sure of himself. At the end of the day he likes to stretch out beside a human and get in gentle rubs under his chin and on his cheeks.

6. Tota & Amba
Adult (3 years 3 months) · Male · Maine Coon (long coat) · 30 mi from Ephrata






This is a courtesty posting, we are networking Tota and Amba so they can find a great home and avoid entering a shelter.
Tota & Amba
Maine Coon mix Brothers Seeking a Home Together
Tota and Amba are bonded male longhair cats born in June 2023. They are being rehomed together due to the resident cat not liking them. This decision is unrelated to their behavior, as both cats are friendly, affectionate, and well-adjusted companions.
Having been together their entire lives, Tota and Amba share a strong bond and should remain together in their new home. They are social cats who enjoy being around people and are comfortable in both quiet and active household environments.
Personality
Tota is the more curious and playful of the pair. He enjoys exploring, interactive play, and being involved in whatever his humans are doing. He is affectionate and enjoys being held.
Amba is laid-back, affectionate, and eager for cuddles. He enjoys relaxing near his family, receiving attention, and spending quality time with his people.
Both cats are:
Read more about Tota & Amba
Friendly with people and other cats
Litterbox trained with consistent bathroom habits
Gentle and affectionate
Intelligent and highly treat-motivated
Fans of window watching, sunbathing, and interactive play
Their favorite toys include laser pointers, small fuzzy balls, and toys with tails.
Nutrition
Tota and Amba are currently fed approximately 4 oz daily of wet food, including:
Royal Canin Indoor Adult
Instinct Adult
Purina Pro Plan Chicken & Rice
Purina Pro Plan Turkey & Rice
Purina Pro Plan White Meat Chicken & Vegetables
Water is mixed into their wet food, as both cats tend to prefer moisture from their meals. They prefer still water but will also drink from a fountain.
They are free-fed Royal Canin Appetite Control dry food. Tota self-regulates his intake well, while Amba benefits from occasional monitoring around food.
Litterbox Habits
Both cats have excellent litterbox habits and are comfortable using either pellet or traditional litter.
They have successfully used:
Purina Tidy Cats
Arm & Hammer Dust Free Litter
Grooming
As longhaired cats, both benefit from routine brushing.
Tota's coat mats easily, particularly around his underarms and hind legs, and requires frequent brushing and occasional trimming for comfort.
Amba's coat is lower maintenance and typically remains tangle-free with regular brushing.
Their nails are trimmed routinely, and they enjoy having scratching posts available for normal scratching and grooming behaviors.
Lifestyle
Tota and Amba are strictly indoor cats but have experience with supervised outdoor time while wearing a leash and harness. They enjoy spending time outdoors safely, though they are equally content watching birds, people, and wildlife from a sunny window.
Neither cat displays aggressive behavior and they do not bite, scratch, or hiss except in situations where they may be frightened or distressed.
Special Note About Amba
Amba has a harmless self-soothing behavior in which he mimics kitten nursing. He seeks out a trusted person, settles into a comfortable spot nearby, and relaxes while engaging in this behavior. It is simply a comforting habit and part of his unique personality.
Ideal Home
Tota and Amba are looking for a family that can provide companionship, enrichment, and continued opportunities to stay together. They are affectionate, social cats who enjoy being part of everyday life and will make wonderful companions for the right home.
Bonded pair - must be adopted together.

How to adopt from Animal Coalition of Delaware County, Inc.
We believe in an adoption approach that considers important details for finding the right fit, such as a person's home, interests and lifestyle. We then match those with an animal's social, exercise and training needs. Unlike “pass/fail” application programs, we strive to match people and animals through education and discovery. We accomplish this through conversation to create an effective, pleasant adoption experience — and most important — to make lasting matches. Each situation, adopter and animal requires a different approach. And while we reserve the right to refuse an adoption, we always make every effort to work with you to address concerns or find the most appropriate companion animal. Before falling in love with one of our animals, please make sure that you are: At least 21 years of age In possession of a valid photo ID Allowed to have a cat or dog where you live (proof of home ownership or copy of lease with pet clause allowing pets is required) Able and willing to spend the time and money necessary to provide the training, medical treatment and proper care for the animal Able to provide veterinary references for current and past veterinarians PLEASE ALLOW 4-5 BUSINESS DAYS FOR YOUR APPLICATION TO BE THOROUGHLY PROCESSED BY ONE OF OUR ADOPTION COUNSELORS If the animals are still listed on our website they are still available.

Adopting a cat in Ephrata
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
