Please meet Chicken Nugget and his cat-mom Jennifer! Chicken Nugget is a 14-week-old Sphynx male, and lovingly nicknamed “Nugs” by his human-sister! He’s a curious little guy and so incredibly soft!

Jennifer shared that this is her first Sphynx, and that she had actually been researching the breed for several years before finding Chicken Nugget. She shared that now she has acquired many cat clothes and heated blankets around her house to keep him warm throughout the coming cold months!

Welcome to the pack, Chicken Nugget!

This little beauty came in today with her big dog-sister, Poppy, and her parents for her first visit since being adopted!

Please meet Peggy, a 6-month-old domestic medium-haired gal. The slight bend in her front right paw is due to a radial nerve injury she had prior to her adoption. However, fear not - this gal moves around and is still just as happy as a six-month-old kitty can be.
