*Bates is temporarily living in a foster home until they find their family. If you would like to meet Bates, we recommend scheduling an appointment with one of our Adoptions Specialists, so we can ensure they are here to meet you when you arrive. Please click “Adopt Bates” to complete an interest survey and one of our Adoptions Specialists will connect with you to set up an appointment!* Bates is the best, loving kitten. He is a shy guy, but overtime will learn to trust you. He loves pets and will let you know he's ready by rubbing on you and becoming a purrbox. He loves playing and will become so excited at feeding time! He is a fun-loving guy and just needs some time and love! He is a shy guy but will warm up in a good environment. Bates became very loving where he would snuggle in your lap and eventually wanted pets. He will seek out pets and loves to play. He is still shy so when you pet him you can't go fast and he will give you the sign like rubbing on you when he wants to be pet. He is such a lovebug with the right calm environment and love. He doesn't destroy anything and uses the litterbox perfectly.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
