Primrose and her 3 sisters were rescued from being eaten by coyotes and other wildlife in the high desert in the Lancaster-Palmdale area.when they were still quite small.  Momcat is now fixed and being fed, but she was feral and unsuitable as a family pet.  Her kittens have had a lot of hands-on human contact and are very friendly and loving and have been quite healthy, playful and happy in the care of a Cats Cradle Rescue fostering volunteer.   They have been in our care since late March.

It happens seldom, but when these kittens were spayed, they tested positive for the FIV virus.  We will be retesting them in late June or early July since many times the test picks up antibodies the kittens received from momcat and they eventually test negative for FIV on subsequent testing.  FIV is not contagious to people, dogs, or other species.  It is a cat-to-cat disease, spread by sex and deep bite wounds from fighting.

Cats Cradle Rescue animals are spayed or neutered and have received at least one vaccination before they are placed up for adoption.  Each animal lives in a foster home as part of the family.

Cats Cradle Rescue requires an adoption application and contract with each animal.  Our adoption fee covers Feline Leukemia and Feline Immuno Virus testing, first year's shots, spay/neuter and microchip.  We also send you home with a collar, CCR tag and starter food.
