Frito's Story

9/29-Frito is a 1 year old female orange kitty! Yes they exist! Frito has been through a lot in her life including being adopted and returned, and battling an illness which she beat! <br/>Frito is a very sweet girl but can be very shy when meeting new people. Frito needs to know that she is safe before she will show you her true colors. But wow once she does this girl will give you all the purrs and snuggles! <br/>Frito does need annual bloodwork to ensure she is healthy from her prior illness, so far so good! <br/><br/> Frito would do best in a home with another cat to help show her the ropes. She could also bring a friend with her! She would not do well as a single cat. She would do best is a quieter home with no young children and likely no dogs unless very calm. <br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form<br/><br/>6/12/25: <br/>Remember our sweet little Frito?! She is still patiently waiting for the perfect home to come along. <br/><br/>Just a quick recap on Frito! Frito was adopted about a year ago and then returned when she became ill. She was successfully treated for FIP and has been good as new ever since. Due to her FIP treatment she should have annual bloodwork to ensure she stays healthy. If she should relapse (fingers crossed this never happens) we would like her to go to a home willing to treat her again. <br/><br/>Frito is quite the character. She can be shy when she meets new people but once she trusts you she is very involved. She enjoys demanding pets, especially when her foster mom is trying to work and sleeping on a nice warm lap. She also enjoys naps on the couch or in the cat tree. <br/><br/>We do strongly recommend another cat in the home to help Frito adjust. She will follow the lead of another cat, and we recommend no dogs as she can be a bit serious. Kiddos are fine as long as they can respect her space. <br/><br/>Apply today! <br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form<br/><br/><br/>1/6: Frito’s birthday wish is to find her forever family! <br/><br/>Frito has been through a lot in her first year of life. At just days old she was rescued from a home with too many cats to count and taken into foster with her mom and siblings. Once she was old enough she was adopted but a month later was returned due to being sick. She was treated and has been the picture a health ever since! <br/>Frito is a very sweet and snuggly girl. She has quite a personality and knows who her people are. She has no issues pushing another cat out of the way (or just sitting on them) when they are in her spot on her humans lap when she wants to snuggle. She loves cat beds (when a human lap isn’t available) and is obsessed with her string toy that hangs from the ceiling. She is not a huge fan of photoshoots but we did our best! She does well with other cats and would do best with at least one other cat to help show her the ropes as she can be a bit shy to start with new people. We recommend a home without dogs. She would do well with older or calm cat savvy children. <br/><br/>Apply today or message us with any questions. Frito truly is a fantastic girl and what better birthday present than to tell her she has a forever home! <br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form<br/><br/><br/>12/10: Frito is a beautiful 11 month old little girl. She is sweet and playful and snuggly. She loves her string toys and curling up for a good snuggle. She does prefer a quieter environment and can be a little shy to start but once she likes you she is going to be your best friend! <br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form<br/><br/>Frito is a 8 month old spayed female looking for a home to call her very own. <br/><br/>Frito has been through a lot in her life, she was rescued from a home with too many cats to count, adopted and returned due to an illness and has successfully been treated for FIP. Through it all she been a fighter! <br/><br/>Frito is quite a character. She prefers to drink her water by dipping her paw in the bowl and licking it from her paw. She enjoys napping on the couch, sometimes right on top of the pillow and especially enjoys a good soft blanket! She will also sleep in bed at night. Frito also enjoys playing with her toys and hanging out with her kitty friends. We do not recommend her with dogs. Frito can be a little timid when meeting new people but once she learns that you are safe she will be your bestie for life! <br/><br/>Please give this girl a chance, she deserves nothing but the very best! <br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/Meowchatz/cat-adoption-application-form<br/><br/><br/>___<br/>All kittens have been examined, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas, felv/fiv tested negative and spayed/neutered. <br/>An adoption donation of $120 is being asked to cover a portion of their veterinary and living expenses.
