About Simba

Meet Simba, the charming orange and white kitten who's ready to embark on a new life. Rescued alongside his brother Kovu from difficult conditions, Simba has bounced back into a happy, healthy bundle of joy. His sweet nature and playful spirit make him a little purring machine, always ready to cuddle up after a good play session or a catnap. Simba is litter box trained and does well with other cats, dogs, and even children. While he would love to find a home with Kovu, he's also content to go solo if there are other furry friends around to keep him company. Simba’s vetting is in progress and he’s just awaiting his neuter. The adoption fee is $220 for a single kitten or $320 for the pair. This includes a neuter at Fur Babies vet for local adopters or a $100 credit for the vet of your choice. Ready to bring Simba home?
