Fontina and Gruyere - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Seattle, Washington

Please read through the entire posting and requirements before applying via our questionnaire at alleycatproject.org/adopt
Please do not submit an inquiry via Petfinder.

Meet Fontina and Gruyere, a bonded pair of kitten siblings! They are approximately 3 months old, and were found with their mama, Gouda.

Fontina is a short-haired female orange kitten with beautiful whorl markings across her coat. She is a little more reserved at first but warms up once she feels safe. She loves to find cozy spots, wrestle with her brother, and curl up for quiet snuggle time once shes comfortable.

Gruyere is a short-haired orange kitten with a striking spotted coat. He's endlessly curious and playful, spending his time chasing anything that moves, exploring every corner of a room, and pouncing on his sister mid-nap. Hes always on the hunt for a new adventure!

Together, they make a wonderfully balanced pair. Gruyere helps draw Fontina out of her shell, while she keeps him grounded with naps between adventures. Their favorite shared activity is curling up side by side for TV time, fighting over churu, and wrestling and chasing each other around a room.

What Gruyere and Fontina are looking for in a home:

- They want to stay together forever and must be adopted as a pair.
- They have lots of kitten energy and will benefit from plenty of active play time.
- They feel at ease in a quiet and calm environment.
- They need to live indoors only.
- They have no known history with other cats.
- They have no known history with dogs.
- They have no known history with children.

All Alley Cat Projects cats are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated prior to adoption.

Alley Cat Project adoption fees are:

- $200 per cat or kitten
- $350 for pair of cats or kittens
- $50 for senior cat (over 8 years old)
- Flexible reduced fees for a cat with a chronic medical condition that requires ongoing care
