About Peter

Meet Peter, the charming black kitten from the "Brady Bunch Kittens." Rescued from Zumbrota, he’s ready to find his forever home. Just like his siblings, he’s a bit shy in new settings but warms up quickly to gentle hands and loves being petted. He enjoys being held too. While they aren’t hyper, Peter and his littermates have playful hearts and moments of delightful antics. Being used to the company of his siblings, he might thrive in a home where he can be adopted with a sibling or alongside another feline friend. Peter doesn’t require gourmet meals like pork chops and applesauce—he’s happy with kitten food and, most importantly, a loving family. Come meet Peter and the rest of this playful crew! Adoption fee is waived, plus a microchip fee of $30 and tax apply. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
