Fantastic Cats Available for Adoption

Submitted By: Coastbbqfree@protonmail.com – Click to email about this post
Meet Olive and Isis. They are currently in a foster home and available for adoption through United Paws of Tillamook. Are you looking for adult cat companions? These young cats have fantastic personalities! Olive (tabby) is the classic entertaining, cartoonish cat to have around the house – she wrestles her mirror image, loves to lounge and gaze out the window, and tells you about her day with her very sweet vocalizations. Isis (sable brown) is the lover of the two – she wants to snuggle next to you for pets, lounge in her favorite chair, and follow you around the house. They enjoy playing with toys, both independently and with a human. Olive performs incredible gymnastics when chasing the feathers on a wire, while Isis makes lightening-fast moves to secure the prey.
If one or both of these girls sound like the friend(s) you’ve been looking for, check them out at unitedpaws.wordpress.com on the Adoptable Kittens and Cats page.

United Paws’ Kittens of the Week

Submitted By: unitedpawshelp@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Meet ELI & Primo!!! Ready to Adopt!!!
If you are looking for the ideal kitten, look no further. Eli checks all the boxes! He adores being cuddled and petted, and purrs the instant you touch him. And on top of that, he is a handsome boy with the sleekest fur imaginable. Looks even better than Bond in a tuxedo!
Eli greets new people with no fear, immediately in his friendly mode! He likes to “hunt” mice on a stick and springs like a panther when he chases them. Gets along great with other cats and would probably do well with friendly dogs and older children.
Eli was rescued as a baby with badly injured back legs, but he is as good as new now! United Paws would love to see Eli be adopted into a family with other kittens & cats. Ideally, with his buddy Primo, described below.
Primo is one handsome, affectionate fella! He has a gorgeous, ticked tabby coat with elegant white tuxedo markings. He is very precocious and intelligent, always first to explore something new. That’s how he got his name! He is always the “first” of his “tabby palooza” litter of 5 to do everything. He was the first to try something besides Mama’s milk, first to eat solid food, and first to use the litter box.
When Primo is not off adventuring, he loves being cuddled and petted, and he gives freely of his plentiful affection. He is energetic and absolutely loves wrestling with his litter mates and especially his good buddy Eli. Primo makes friends with other kitties quickly and would get along fine with friendly dogs if introduced in the proper manner. He would love to go to his new forever home with his buddy Eli.
Both kittens are neutered, vaccinated, and healthy, ready for their forever family. Contact United Paws through our web site, www.unitedpaws.wordpress.com or call 503-842-5663.
