You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.GEM hails from Dryden and is mum to the Gemette’s Litter (Tiger Eye, Zircon and Amethyst) who came south to find their loving families. She’s spayed, vaccinated including her rabies shot, microchipped, had Revolution plus she’s been deemed a healthy girl by the vet. She was just a baby herself having babies but she was a very caring mumma to her kittens so after doing her duty, it’s now her time to find that perfect family to settle in with. She’s very much a Torti and is loving, loyal and will knead on your leg while purring contentedly. Her favourite place to sit is on the window ledge so she can watch the wildlife outside. She loves to run around and chase the little kitty balls around plus pounce on the little kitty stuffies. GEM is litter box trained and has been since first coming into foster care. She’s very meticulous and is constantly grooming herself. She kept her babies very clean too and was always giving them a good wash down and making sure they were sparkling clean. She’ll lay in the hammock that’s in a catio and have her naps in it. She enjoys both kibble and wet food but her favourite thing for snacking on is Temptations treats and she always has a few at bedtime too. GEM’s fostered with puppies and it did take her sometime to warm up to them as she was very defensive of her kittens around them. She’s not quite at the snuggling stage with them but she’s definitely more tolerant of them. Seeing as she’s used to being around puppies she should do well with a dog in the home but they should be cat savvy and we always recommend a slow, monitored introduction while the dog is kept leashed. She’s socialized with cats as she has 2 in her foster home and they do live in harmony and have been caught snuggling up together in the dog bed. There’s still one of her kittens, Amethyst, in her foster home and they look like twins. They‘re always snuggling up together in a dog bed and the pair of them will play, chase and groom each other. Seeing as they get along so well we would love to see them stay together in a new home but that’s not mandatory. She would definitely do best with another cat in the home or with an owner who’s home must of the time do she’s not left alone for long periods of time. Children should be aged 6yrs plus be loving, caring and considerate to animals. If GEM sounds like the perfect fit for you and your home then please submit an adoption application to meet her.
