Boris
Young Male
Adopted 12/2008
Boris could see catlady suckers coming a mile away! At 2am on election night, he let out a frantic 'MEOW' and dashed across a West Philly street to greet us. Boris asked to be carried home, and we obliged. He is blessed with good luck (forget those black cat myths), good looks, and a fabulous personality. With all of that going for him, he found a home in no time. Now known as Harry, he has a fabulous new family, including a feline buddy, The Beast. His mom reports that 'The Beast is happy to have a buddy - when they're not in the same room they go looking for the other.'

About City Kitties' Veterinary Care: We provide high quality veterinary care for our foster cats and kittens. Each animal is spayed/neutered, tested for FIV and feline leukemia, and receives age-appropriate vaccinations (FVRCP and rabies), and flea/parasite treatment as needed. Since they live in foster homes, you can see our adoptable animals in a familiar, stress-free environment, and their foster parents can tell you all about their personalities. If you have questions a week, a month, or even a year after adoption, we're available for guidance and support.
How to Adopt from City Kitties: Our adoptable animals are housed in private foster homes. The first step in meeting an adoptable animal is to fill out an adoption application. To ensure a lifelong match between you and your new pet, our adoption process involves an application, reference check, and a visit to your home at the time of adoption. Our adoption fee is $85 to help subsidize the cost of veterinary care. You can read more about the adoption process and fill out an application on our website, www.citykitties.org.
