Rudolph's Story

Meet Rudolph! Born March, 2025 Rudolph is an adorable little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This handsome male kitten is adventurous and curious, always eager to explore new spaces and investigate anything that catches his eye. He’s energetic, playful, and active, happily chasing toys, pouncing on wand teasers, and showing off his kitten zoomies. Rudolph is also quite food motivated, which makes him easy to engage and a quick learner. Though he can be easily startled at times, his gentle and easygoing nature helps him bounce right back. What truly makes Rudolph special is how affectionate and friendly he is. He enjoys being held, loves to curl up as a lap cat, and will happily soak up attention from his favorite people. While he’s independent and respectful of personal space, he’s also outgoing and vocal, never shy about letting you know when he wants love or a snack. Rudolph is tolerant, great with handling, and even enjoys being brushed — making grooming time a sweet bonding experience. This loving boy is ready to bring warmth, fun, and lots of purrs to his forever home. To adopt Rudolph complete our adoption application here-https://www.tenderlovingcats.org/adoption/application.html After the application is approved you can meet him in his fosters home.

Adoption Donation Fees: $150 Kitten $100 Adult Cat 1+ years and up $75 Senior Cat 7+ years and up 1. Adoption fees are a donation toward the medical treatment, spay/neuter and daily care of preparing and maintaining a cat/kitten for adoption. Tender Loving Cats, Inc. does not sell animals. 2. All cat/kitten(s) are tested negative for feline leukemia (FeLV), all age appropriate vaccines including 1st year distemper boosters & rabies vaccines are provided by TLC at a vet of our choosing, cat/kitten(s) are fully dewormed, flea treated, spayed/neutered & microchipped. 3. All cats and kittens adopted from Tender Loving Cats, Inc. are spayed/neutered prior to adoption as a part of our mission to reduce the numbers of homeless cats and kittens on Long Island. All kittens available for pre-adoption will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. 4. Since we are a foster based rescue we require that you be an approved applicant before meeting the cat/kitten(s) in foster homes. We also have some of our cat/kitten(s) available to meet today at our PetSmart Charities Adoption Centers located at 1208 Deer Park Ave, N. Babylon, NY and 535 Montauk Hwy, W. Babylon. We have volunteers there Mon-Sat 9-11am & 6-8pm, Sunday 9-11am & 4-6pm. The location of each cat/kitten is written in their description on PetFinder. 5. Complete our adoption application. Ensure that you see a green check mark that says “successfully submitted” and receive a copy of your application to your email. If not, your application may not have been received. 6. After the adoption application is submitted you should hear from our adoption committee within as soon as possible for an interview. We like to process applications within 24hrs from the time of interview as long as all references can be reached. 7. A FaceTime/Zoom walkthrough of your home starting from the outside going inside is required. Long distance deliveries will be considered on a case by case basis. 8. When choosing the purrfect cat/kitten for your household remember to choose a personality that fits your household over looks. Ask yourself the following questions - Do you have a quiet or busy household? Is it important that a cat or kitten be raised with other cats, dogs or young children? ?See “Preparing for Adoption". 9. Please note that single kitten adoptions will not be allowed to go home until 12wks of age and already spayed/neutered & microchipped. If you're a local approved applicant and interested in adopting a pair of kittens, they may be able to go home to you at 8 weeks of age to "foster with intent to adopt". You will be required to sign a foster agreement and bring to out veterinarian for their spay/neuter, booster vaccines & microchip. All applicants approved for kittens under the age of 12 weeks will sign a pre-adoption agreement and pay a 50% deposit. See #5 on “Preparing for Adoption”. 10. We do not allow potential adopters to bring current cats or dogs to meet the cats or kittens for adoption face to face. Newly adopted cat/kitten(s) require a slow introduction over a minimum of 2 weeks. Tender Loving Cats, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers who are committed to serving the best interest of the animals in its care.
