Introducing Chin, one of 15 cats and kittens who found themselves homeless and in need of the shelter after their owner died with no "succession plan" in place for these babies. Thankfully, family members were able to help us figure out the approximate ages for the adults, and they were better socialized than one would expect in a family with so many cats.

The adults as a whole lived as indoor-outdoor cats, so could be placed in similar situations, though the orange kitties do not have very safe coloring for areas with predators (indeed, there is a reason only two of the cats from this household are seniors, and the rest are all 3 or younger - indoor/outdoor lives do shorten most cats' lifespans).

They did not live with dogs, but so far do not seem terribly perturbed about the dogs they see from their screened Meow Manor porch area, so should be able to adapt to homes with polite, cat-savvy canines.

Obviously, they are all quite used to living with other cats!

Chin is a shorthaired black and white tuxedo boy, born about 3/1/2024. This guy is another charmer, affectionate, direct, and oh-so-curious about everything. He really wants to figure out what a "toy" is, as they seem so intriguing - BIRD, and yet NOT BIRD. Would you like to teach Chin all about wand toys with their endless pleasures?

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Chin is a suggested minimum of $60 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
