Duke's Story

Duke and Pharaoh are a bonded pair of brothers who balance each other perfectly and are looking for a forever home together. Duke is the life of the party and the little mischief-maker of the duo. This energetic boy is always on the move—whether he’s investigating a cabinet you forgot to close, chasing a toy across the room, or climbing somewhere he probably shouldn’t be. Duke is curious about everything and wants to be right in the middle of whatever you’re doing. Despite all his playful chaos, he is incredibly clingy and absolutely loves to cuddle. After burning off his endless kitten energy, Duke will happily curl up beside you (or on you) for a cozy nap. He’s also very talkative and loves to chat—both with his brother Pharaoh and with his favorite humans. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate shadow who will keep you entertained and loved, Duke is your guy. If you’re looking for double the purrs, double the cuddles, and double the personality, these two brothers are ready to fill your home with love and conversation. 🐾 Adoption fee is 65$ and includes: neuter age-appropriate vaccines flea/tick/heartworm prevention deworming microchip

The Homeward Bound Project of MS's Adoption Policy

Upon interest for a pet, the potential adopter will receive an adoption application via email. The application is returned, filled out, and process within 24-48 hours. A phone interview will follow, and all adopters are notified of status via phone call. Upon approval, a signed adoption contract and adoption fee must be received prior to sending the animal home. Adoption fees (with exceptions) are typically $65, which covers all vet care and surgery the animal receives while in Homeward Bound's care. All pets adopted out by Homeward Bound are spayed or neutered, have age-appropriate vaccinations, have been screened for diseases, and have been FIV/FeLV tested. They have spent at least 14 days in Mississippi homes in foster care and have been treated for any medical conditions. All animals have been properly vetted according to their needs and started on flea/tick/heartworm preventatives prior to being sent to their new homes!
