Skippy's Story

MEET SKIPPY! <br/>A survivor, a sweetheart, and the ultimate lap cat! <br/>Skippy has quite the story to tell.

We were able to trap Skippy and get him the urgent medical care he desperately needed. He had severe bite wounds, a broken toe, and was severely emaciated.<br/><br/>It took Skippy some time to learn that humans could be trusted again. But once he did... he became one of the most affectionate boys in the world. <br/><br/>Unfortunately, Skippy’s story didn’t end there.<br/><br/>He later survived a devastating house fire at the rescue’s headquarters, a fire that took the home and many lives. Skippy suffered from smoke inhalation effects, but once again, this incredible boy fought his way through — and today, he is recovered, thriving, and ready for his forever home. <br/><br/>And what kind of cat is Skippy?<br/><br/> He is DEMANDING of attention — and he will require a LOT of it!<br/> He has a nonstop purr box and absolutely loves curling up in a lap.<br/> When he is especially happy and content, he drools while purring up a storm! <br/> He loves to snuggle and wants to be close to his people.<br/> Skippy enjoys other cats, especially gentle, kind cats who won't hiss or swat at him. Those behaviors intimidate him.<br/> He is great with kids!<br/> No dogs, please. Skippy has some trauma from his rough life outdoors and does best in a dog-free home.<br/><br/>After everything this sweet boy has survived, Skippy deserves a life filled with safety, love, cozy laps, and all the attention he can possibly demand. <br/><br/>Are you looking for a kitty who will give you endless affection, nonstop purrs, and plenty of lap snuggles?<br/><br/>Then maybe Skippy has been waiting for you. <br/><br/>Please share Skippy’s story and help us find this amazing boy the forever home he deserves!

Kitten Kam Rescue's Adoption Policy
I have an adoption application and a contract for all adopters, that they must fill out and be screened. Once an application is received for a potential adoption, we do a meet and greet with the potential adopter, and do a visit with them with the cat(s) they are interested in, and assure they are a good fit and that the cat/person get along great. Once the meet and greet is over, we discuss with the potential adopter about the adoption timeline and decide if we move forward with the adoption.
