COAL NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!<br/><br/>Name: Coal Best Guess for Breed: Domestic Short Hair<br/>Best Guess for Age: 16 weeks as of 8/20/26 Est. DOB: 4/27/26<br/>SEX: Male Approximate Weight: 2 lbs as of 06/24/26<br/>Coloring: Black Type of Hair: Short<br/>Gets Along With: Because of his young age, Coal will likely get along with other cats, dogs and kids with an acclimation period. We’re happy to help with tips and tricks!<br/>Currently Living at: Foster home in the DC area!<br/>I am Looking For: Hi, I'm Coal, and I promise I'm even cuter in person! I'm a sweet little guy who is ready to bring some serious charm to your home. All I need is a soft place to land, some toys to keep me busy, and a family who will love me like I deserve.<br/>If you're thinking about doubling the fun, my brother Char is looking for his forever home, too. Everyone knows two kittens are better than one!<br/><br/>Litter: Char and Coal<br/><br/>What My Foster Says About Me: Coal and Char are the best kittens! Coal is a little love bug, loves to cuddle on my lap while I'm working. He'll snuggle into your hand just like a dog and flop on you when he can. Char also loves people but doesn't seek out my lap as often, however, he does like to cuddle when he decides he's tired. They are both playful kittens, anything that moves is a potential toy. They seem to get along well with my older cats, mostly just leave them alone (as that's what the resident cats prefer). Since they are kittens, they do need reminders about boundaries and rules. They use the litter box perfectly! They can play on their own but also like to play with their people. They are the perfect companions!9/8 (new foster): Cole is a sleek four-month-old black kitten with a tiny patch of white on his belly and a HUGE capacity for love. Pick him up like a baby and he melts into your arms, belly up and purring almost immediately. He also loves checking in with his person for a few pets before racing off again. Then his feet hit the floor and the chaos gremlin is activated! Cole loves wrestling, racing, exploring, toys, cardboard, and getting into the good kind of kitten trouble. Sweet, social, curious, and hilariously playful, Cole is equal parts love bug and chaos gremlin—and that combination is pretty irresistible.<br/>Kitten Vetting Requirements : Your kitten may not be fully vaccinated upon adoption. You will be responsible for providing whatever remaining vaccines are needed to complete the kitten vaccine series.<br/>Due to this kitten’s young age, he has not yet been neutered. As part of the adoption contract, it will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that this is done no later than 10/27/26. There are NO EXCEPTIONS and NO EXTENSIONS to this date. A nonrefundable spay/neuter deposit will be collected if you would like Lucky Dog to pay for this animal to be altered at one of our low-cost partner vets.<br/>TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this kitten is $220 ($380 for two cats or kittens adopted together), which includes the cost of routine vetting. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckycat<br/>Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the cats we have for adoption.
