Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application.
Please do not call the shelter; do the application first.

Cantaloupe and Honeydew, sisters, were born 4/22/24. Both have very sweet dispositions; Honeydew has a little bit of "stranger danger" and believes cameras are CLEARLY going to steal her soul, while Cantaloupe has the more outgoing purrsonality of the two. Both should adapt well to pretty much any family, though Honeydew will want some patience for the first couple of weeks while she figures out the hoomans are her new buddies. These two may be adopted as a pair, but it is not required. After acclimation, they have the coloring and temperament to possibly succeed as indoor/outdoor kitties (though safest, of course, as indoor-only, and NEVER outside between dusk and dawn).

We'd love to see all kittens go to homes that have another young, playful kitten, or to send 2 of them out as a pair (which gives you a great pair discount rate), but we do not require pair adoptions. If you prefer to adopt just one, and you don't have a similarly aged kitten at home already, please read our information on Single Kitten Syndrome. Then, when you apply for a single kitten, please let us know in the "Comments" field how you plan to deal with the "kitten crazies."

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Cantaloupe is a suggested minimum of $65 (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!
