9. Starburst

Kitten (1 month 27 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed

Hi, my name is Starburst, and I am two-month old buff orange tabby kitten! (Since I am nearly identical to 3 of my brothers, I wear a
PINK
collar.) I was born on the mean streets of Fort Bend, and a nice lady found me bundled up in a car tire with my four brothers. We had nasty eye infections, but fortunately, we were brought to a SOCA volunteer who took great care of us, and now we are looking for our forever family!

Read more about Starburst

I am a little different from my other brothers, because I can be on the skittish side. When I was first brought to my foster mom's house, I sometimes hissed at her, and it took me some time to adjust. After being with her for almost a month, I no longer hiss at her and play with my humans and my brothers, just like any typical kitten! My favorite things to do are wrestle with my brothers, run to my foster mom for hugs when she gets home from work, and curling up for a nice, long nap! Now that I have adapted to life inside, I always run up to greet the guests coming to my foster house, but my foster mom thinks I should be adopted with one of my brothers to help ease the transition to my new family's house. As long as my new family is patient with me, I should warm up just fine! My foster mom says I am sweet, purr-y, and super cute! Plus, I am litter box trained, eat wet and dry kitten food, and stay very quiet at night, so that I do not disturb anyone's sleep!

My adoption fee is $250 for me and one of my brothers, and it includes my vaccines, micro-chipping, and neuter procedure. While I am available for adoption right now, I am still too small to go to my final vet appointment for my micro-chipping and neuter surgery. Therefore, if I am adopted right now, my new family will have to agree to take me to my final vet appointment in 6-8 weeks, which SOCA will arrange and pay for.

Interested in meeting me? Then, please submit a completed application on your website! Additionally, I will be featured at the SOCA Adoption Events on Saturdays from noon-3pm at the Petsmart in Fulshear on 26290 FM 1093--I would love it if you would come visit me!

Adopting a cat in Austin County

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.
