About Hickory

Meet Hickory! Sassafrass and his siblings were rescued from a tree at just a few weeks old. The finder heard distressing sounds in her backyard and discovered them in a hollowed-out tree. They weren’t in the best condition initially, but with supportive care and some bottle feeding, all five kittens thrived! Hickory is a true adventurer, evidenced by his expert climbing skills. He enjoys playful wrestling sessions and is both smart and brave. He gets along perfectly with children and excels in the cuddle department, making him a great family addition. All kitties from Saving Stevie are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, combo tested, and microchipped. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
