Lilypad

Lilypad became a mom when she was still practically a kitten herself. At just 9 months old, she was busy raising babies when she should have been busy being one.<br/><br/>Now 1 year old and officially retired from motherhood, Lilypad is making up for lost time-and learning how to kitten again. <br/><br/>She's discovered the joy of chasing toys, zooming around the house, investigating anything that catches her attention, and just being silly. She's playful, curious and outgoing, with a sweet, affectionate side that makes her just as happy to spend time loving on her people.<br/><br/>It's been so much fun watching Lilypad realize that she doesn't have any babies to take care of anymore. Her only responsibilities now are playing, napping, getting attention and deciding which toy to chase next.<br/><br/>Lilypad does well with respectful cats after slow introductions. She spent the beginning of her life taking care of everyone else-now she's ready for a family who will spend the rest of hers taking care of her.<br/><br/>Apply here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Cat<br/><br/>-------------------------------------<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEES<br/><br/>Altered kitten* - $150<br/>Pair of altered kittens - $220<br/>Cat 6 months or older - $75<br/>Senior cats 8 years or older- $50<br/><br/>Adoption fees cover the cost of care and veterinary services.<br/><br/>*We do not adopt out single kittens under 6 months to homes without other pets due to single cat syndrome.
