About Peanut

Peanut is a charming little guy, eager to find his forever family. At just three months old, he loves to play with toys and has made friends with other kittens at the shelter. He enjoys chasing after buddies and exploring. Peanut is a sweet boy who doesn’t mind being held, though you might have to catch him first! Watching the world from the window is one of his favorite pastimes. Since he is still too young to be neutered or receive his first rabies vaccination, there are some additional steps for adopters. A $100 security deposit is required to ensure he receives the necessary care once he’s old enough, and this will be returned upon confirmation from a veterinarian. Peanut's adoption fee offers great value at $75, which covers his neuter, microchip, and vaccinations, plus flea/tick preventative and dewormer. Ready to give Peanut the home he deserves?
