Basil's Story

Meet Basil: part-time purr machine, full-time heart-melter. This little guy is sweetness wrapped in fur — the type of kitten who believes snuggles are a basic human right (and he’ll make sure you never forget it). He is a mama’s boy but also a lady’s man in the most gentle way!  If you sit on the floor with him, he’ll imitate his best Lion King and sit on your feet…every single time!  He’s an explorer and total love bug!  Basil’s favorite hobbies? Chasing toys with the kind of wild abandon only kittens know. He loves to play with balls, the pop up cube and chase his litter mates thru the tunnel. His favorite toy is his mama’s tail but will pause mid-pounce to flash his signature head tilt — so charming, you’ll wonder if he practices in the mirror. He’s got a big heart and plenty of love to go around, so he’d be thrilled to share his days with a playful buddy. Basil would be over the moon to move in with a friend his own age, or maybe even with one of his siblings (Nutmeg or Ginger, anyone?) or his doting momma Sage. If your home could use a daily dose of cuteness and a snuggle pro, Basil’s your guy.

Mission for Paws's Adoption Policy
Meet and greets are on Saturdays from 11am - 3pm at the Petsmart in Pasadena. Please email to check that the cat that you are interested in adopting will be in attendance. Private meet and greets during the week are by appointment only with a submitted and approved application. The application process involves veterinary checks. You may need to call your veterinarian to allow release of information to our organization. If interested in adopting at our Saturday adoption event we suggest filling out the application prior to arrival so that we can do the necessary processing. We do not do same day adoptions unless your application is approved beforehand. www.missionforpaws.org/application There is a $125 adoption fee. All of our cats are spay/neutered, tested for FiV and Feline Leukemia, fully vaccinated, treated for any parasites and microchipped. Fees are waived on our special needs and senior pets. Those can be discussed during the adoption process. Please note our kitten companion policy. At Mission for Paws we prefer that our kittens go to homes that already have a young companion animal or to a home willing to adopt two kittens. We feel it’s important for kittens to have playmates for good socialization and life enrichment. Happy well adjusted cats make better pets and increase the likelihood of a successful adoption and a permanent home.
