Hi!  My name is Moose.  My shy and loving mama, Bella was a pregnant stray cat that had trust in her heart to come into my foster mama's home and give birth to me and my 9 littermates.  We love to play with each other and are very social!   If we aren't taking a cat nap, you will find us playing hide and seek, wrestling, chasing and batting our toys around!  We adore sitting in boxes, bowls and baskets; especially ones that are clearly too small for us-ha! 
 
While we can be energetic, we are very mellow.  Our foster mama says we have brought so much joy and laughter into her home and that you would be very lucky and blessed to adopt any of us!   We are all very inquisitive and follow her around; checking out what she is doing.  She always has at least three or four 'little buddies' chasing after her!  even when we nap, there is always at least three of us cuddled up together.  We are incredibly affectionate and constantly looking for a scratch, hug and even kisses!  Being good eaters, we find kibble very tasty but do enjoy a can of delicious soft food in the morning.  When we hear that can crack open, it is like a kitty serenade as we meow with delight!  All of us use the litter box and scratching post.  Our foster mama has two cats, so we have been around and get along with other cats since we were born.  We are a tight knit litter and would love to be adopted with one of our siblings or mama:  Dottie, Jax, Little Grey, Lacie, Socks, Piggy Sue or mama Bella.
 
I was given the name Moose because I've always been the biggest kitten in my litter.  My foster mama says I am such an easy going and lovable little goofball that you'll ever meet!  When she sits down, I jump into her lap for cuddles and I just purr and purr!

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.
