Tortuga's Story

Tortuga is a beautiful, attentive mama with a loving heart and playful spirit. Found as a friendly stray with her five newborn kittens, she's shown what a devoted and affectionate cat she is. Tortuga loves gentle scratches under her chin, on her head, and on her cheeks, and once she trusts you, pets along her back and tail are usually welcomed too. She's energetic and athletic in play, especially chasing feather toys, showing off her quick, agile skills - but she's equally happy just being near you and sharing quiet company. Tortuga is tidy, well-mannered, and communicative, making her a delightful companion for anyone who loves a sweet, playful, and devoted cat. This kitty **MUST** be adopted into a home that already has another young cat, or adopted as a pair with a sibling or another kitty. ----------- Kittens are very social and do best with a friend! This site has great information about why 2 kittens really make a whole kitten: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens All TPW kittens are neutered, vaccinated against FVRCP, microchipped, and dewormed. We also test each litter for FIV and FeLV. If interested in meeting this kitty, Please apply at: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TPW/Cat

Thank you for your interest! If you have not already done so, please submit the adoption application found at this link: https://nmdr.org/our-dogs/adopt/ if you have already submitted an application- Within 72 hours of receipt of your application, an Adoptions Team member will respond to you via EMAIL with instructions on next steps in the application process.

We do not allow shipping or transportation.
