Sal Anthony and his littermates were born on July 8th, the day after their very pregnant mother Mimi was abandoned at a rural shelter. Doted on every minute (some might say spoiled) for all but their first 8 days, the kittens are extremely well socialized with humans of all ages and run to greet strangers at the door and by the time everyone has been introduced, treat every visitor as a lifelong friend. When the kittens were tiny, we thought Sal Anthony was a little girl and named him Sally Athena. A name change was clearly in order when the vet informed us our petite little lady was a tiny tom cat! Sal Anthony took our confusion in stride and has even forgiven us for the very silly name. Sal Anthony is a sweet, curious funny fellow who loves each of his siblings dearly, but is especially fond of his mom. Sal Anthony  has never been alone, so would be happiest adopted with one or more of his littermates (such as Marco and Lola, who must be adopted together), with his mom, and if not, he needs a family with at least one  cat-friendly older kitty. Indeed, Sal Anthony and every one of the kittens has great younger sibling potential: they seem to instinctively know which of their foster parents' four adult cats are in the mood to play and when to flop before them in submission.   

Update: December was an exciting time! Sweet Sal Anthony and all of Mimi's other babies went home to their forever families! Just Mimi is waiting for her special someone--could that be you?
