Female Cat, Domestic Short Hair
Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Meet Lettuce! She is a sweet, timid little girl but she loves to play and snuggle with her favorite people. She needs another cat in the home, ideally her brother Tomato, as they spend all their time together. To learn more about him click here. She loves to play with her brother more than anything. Lettuce loves to explore and play with wand toys. She is spunky and sweet but can come across a little bit standoffish. She cuddles on her terms and likes to sleep with her foster mom at night. Lettuce is from a local owner surrender If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals. Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
