Skeeter's Story

Hi there, I’m Skeeter — a 6 month old brown tabby girl with a soft coat, bright eyes, and a heart full of love to give! I like to think of myself as a little princess — polite, curious, and just waiting for my happily ever after home.<br/><br/>I appreciate an introduction so I know you're kind, but once I feel at home, my sweet, social side really shines through! Like any catolescent, playtime is my favorite time of the day. I love any wand toy that you're on the other end of.<br/><br/>I'll probably be your favorite little Kitty Admin, following you around the house and making sure you get your daily requirement of purrs and headbonks. I enjoy toys, gentle pets, and cozy spots where I can curl up nearby and keep you company.<br/><br/>I get along well with just about anyone — feline friends, kind humans, and maybe even a calm dog — as long as we take our introductions nice and slow. With patience and love, I promise I’ll be your loyal little companion for life. I should do fine with older children.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a gentle, well mannered kitten who’s equal parts sweet and charming, I’d love to be your new best friend. Could I be your little princess?<br/><br/>I can be adopted for $120 which includes my spay, vaccinations, microchip, food and litter starter kit, and a free well kitty checkup to help you get started.<br/><br/>You can tap here to fill out an Adoption Application: https://happycatshaven.org/adoption-application/ and someone should get back to you during our adoption hours Wednesday – Sunday by 5 pm to set up a visit. If you need to contact someone more quickly, please call 719-362-4600 and we’ll do our best to get back to you within 48 hours. I can't wait to meet you!

Happy Cats Haven's Adoption Policy
You are always welcome to come meet our cats and kittens! Filling out an Adoption Application beforehand will save time. Our basic requirements are that all cats be kept inside, except when supervised or outside on a leash (we offer help with leash training!) or in an enclosed catio. We don't support declawing, which is actually amputating toes and can lead to far greater pain and issues than keeping their paws intact. We do support proper training for scratching, from kittens to adults, and will help you choose the equipment your cat likes best. We require a copy of the lease agreement that authorizes cats so that no one is heartbroken later if the cat is not allowed. Bringing that in when you come to meet the cats will also speed up the process. Over 55% of our adoptions go to family and friends, so we always offer our Buddy Discount to bonded pairs or kittens, with the second one at half off. Kittens thrive when they go home with a sibling, so we give preference to pair (or triplet or quadruplet!) adoptions. We also recommend kittens of at least 4 months to families with children under 5, for the safety of the children as well as the kitten. With an approved application, a cat or kitten can be held up to 48 hours with a $50 deposit (sometimes longer in special cases). This deposit isn't refundable but is transferable to another cat if needed.
