In the shelter’s words

DOB 10/10/25 Hey there, everyone! I’m Fanta, sweet, affectionate, and playful orange tabby fella who was named after Cocoa Cola’s orange-flavored soft drink. Then again, I think I'm well named because I'm FANTAstic! I love my Foster Meowmy and will enthusiastically jump into her arms so that she’ll shower me with kisses and scratch my ears. I’m a frisky dude who adores attacking the turkey-feather wand toy as she waves it over my head, and you should see how fast I scramble to chase the elusive red laser dot. In my solitary moments, I enjoy watching the squirrels play outside as I view them through the window. I get along well with the other cats in my foster home, and although I haven’t met any dogs, Foster Meowmy thinks I'd do great with them too, as long as we were properly introduced. I was rescued by a vet tech who found me as a 5-month-old orphaned kitten with no momma or siblings in sight. The vet discovered that my eyes do not make enough tears, but thank heavens an eye specialist has prescribed eyes drops that are working wonders. With just five drops per day, my tears have improved from 0 to level 13, and the vet is shooting for a level 20. The vet tech turned to HOPE to find me a forever home, and I’m so glad that Foster Meowmy stepped up to the plate and agreed to foster me. Although my eyes don’t look different and certainly don’t slow me down from my typical kitten antics, I’m still considered a “special needs” kitty because I’ll need three different prescription eye drops daily for the rest of my life. I hope that my slight disability won’t scare you off from allowing me to demonstrate to you, as my forever family, my cute trick of jumping into your arms to receive your kisses and scritches. Just think how great it will make you feel to know that I appreciate you so heartily! Arrange to meet me today! My heart has so much love to give – all I need is YOU! HOPE ID 26-0404-C018 Fanta’s $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.
