Interested in adopting a cat or kitten from Lava's Lost & Forgotten Felines? Our rescue features a variety of cats and kittens looking for their forever home. We highlight one special cat here on these page each month- but to see all of our available cats and kittens, view us on petfinder by tapping the link below:
All of our cats and kittens are cared for in private foster homes. This means they receive the best care and one on one attention every day, which helps them become well socialized, confident, and ready for their forever homes. Foster homes allow our cats to learn everyday household routines, so the transition to a new home is smooth. Our cats and kittens are good with kids, other cats, and dogs unless stated otherwise.
They are vaccinated, wormed, flea and ear mite treated. We try to spay and neuter before adoption, however if we are unable to do so, you will be responsible to do so, and we can help direct you to local, low cost options if necessary. Meet and greets are held at our vets office. Once you are approved for adoption, a vet and landlord reference is required, as well as a $75.00 non-refundable deposit to hold your cat or kitten. Adoption fees are $125-$150, subject to change at our discretion. We reserve the right to refuse an adoption for any animal at our discretion.
Acacia was found in a wood pile, infested with fleas, and suffering from an upper respiratory infection and a severe eye infection. Despite her rough start, she has bounced back beautifully and is now fully vetted and spayed. Her brother Aspen was adopted right away, but Acacia hasn’t had a single inquiry- so we’re waiving her adoption fee! She’s great with cats, dogs, and kids, and would thrive as an only cat or with one other feline companion. Acacia loves being the center of attention and is ready to bring her charm and affection to a loving home.
To learn more about Acacia, or inquire about adopting her, view her profile on Petfinder via the link button below, or E-mail us, at lavasfelines@aol.com.
While we do not make it mandatory that you adopt more than one kitten or have other kittens in the home, single kitten syndrome is a real thing. Please take the time to read the following information.
Single Kitten Syndrome refers to behavioral and social challenges that can develop when a kitten is raised without another kitten to learn from. Kittens learn important skills-such as bite inhibition, boundaries, and appropriate play-through interaction with littermates. Without this, single kittens are more likely to become overly rough, vocal, attention-seeking, or easily frustrated, which can lead to long-term behavioral issues. Adopting in pairs or ensuring your kitten has consistent, structured play and social engagement can help prevent these behaviors. Our goal is to support adopters in making informed choices that set both their families and their kittens up for success.
