Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

**NOTE: All AVA kittens under 12 months of age MUST be adopted in pairs or to a home with another young cat. AVA does not accept applications for single kittens**

***Marty may be an independent sort, but the company of his siblings or foster aunties would be much appreciated as he ventures forth to a new home.

Marty is a slinky boy with the shiniest black fur you have ever seen. His big paws will tell you he’s not done growing yet and we expect him to become a proper hunk of love. Marty often prefers his own company, and can find some very creative spots to nap. When he does want company, he’s most often found with his auntie Maui. He is also quite talkative when he thinks his humans need to know something.

Would you like to make Marty and Co. a part of your family? Please complete our online application found at: https://www.avacats.org/adoption-application-form.

Our adoption fees cover vetting and include spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccines (initial FVRCP and rabies), flea treatment, two dewormings and microchipping.

Adoption fees are $275 for each kitten up to 12 months old. Please note that fees may apply for additional required vaccinations (at $75 per booster) due prior to adoption. Total adoption fees will be confirmed by the AVA Adoption Coordinator.

All AVA kittens 12 months or younger must be adopted in pairs or go to a home with another young cat (3 years or younger). Kittens learn from each other how to behave, which helps them turn into well-adjusted adult cats. In general, paired cats have happier and healthier lives because they have a constant companion and playmate. Plus, it's twice the fun for you, and half the work!
