JJ says HELLO and would like to maybe sniff you?

He's getting very brave and is almost ready for adoption! (We did tell Ibis's new human about JJ...)

JJ and Tom are best nap buddies. JJ is just about ready for adoption which is very exciting!

It’s finally time to announce that the very best boy BumbleTus is now ready for adoption. He is still a bit mouthy so older kids are best, and he needs a buddy (either another young kitty or even a friendly dog) to wrestle with (he & JJ are pals if you want two!) Elkton, MD crits4cats.petfinder.com

JJ blep!

JJ has been steadily getting braver, hanging out, begging for treats and pats. I'm very proud of his progress!

GUESS WHAT?! JJ jumped into my lap today BY HIMSELF.

Sure, he thought I might have (more) churu, but he still jumped up and got a pat!

Little feral kittens are very rewarding.

JJ is settling into foster life & is starting to relax. He’s friends with the other kittens & learning to play w/them like a kitten his age should, & is less reactive when you reach for him. We’re seeing playful mouthiness more than fear-biting. In a lovely twist, he’s decided my wife is his pal 🥰

LOOK AT HIM!

JJ, the 4 month old kitten who came to us skinny, anxious & reactive to hands coming towards him, has shed his fear & suspicion while living with us as a foster. He’s learned the joy of having other kittens his own age to play with, & cuddles all day on foster mom, purring mightily. He’s healing. 🧡

SUCH good treat eating kittens, IN MY LAP.

Such bravery.

Ibis and JJ aren't brothers, but are the same age (~5 months), and both from feral colonies. They're doing so well here and consistently making good choices around socialisation!

Gorgeous JJ came out for treats and a big love because he heard his sisters weren't monopolising my time anymore.

I tried to get a photo of him and Ibis side by side to show how big JJ is, but no luck. They're the same age, but JJ is gonna be huuuuuge.

Since integrating JJ with the other kittens, he is slowly figuring out how to interact with them. He really only seems to understand “play chase” so far but the amount of growling and anxiety is decreasing. He’s still very mouthy and prone to swatting but he is much happier to have friends around.

JJ has been given FREEDOM! I'm hoping this isn't a terrible choice.

What it is is a lazy choice - Ibis is down with a URI and I didn't want to set up a new crate for him. So JJ is now free and Ibis is Very Sad in a crate where I can get my hands on him.

JJ also got lots of treats and settled in for a big brushing session. He was a happily melted kitten by the end of it, but I missed that photo.

I don't know what he did, but I'm sure Timmy deserves whatever scolding he's getting >:3

JJ! After 36 hours of hiding, he has gotten brave and emerged to shout at me about breakfast. He also demanded lots of pats and affection.

Baby Ruth & JJ have become quite a pair of pals while they’ve been in foster. Both used to be suspicious of people, now they’re both sweet, social & happy boys. They don’t need to be adopted together but both would appreciate a friendly young wrestling buddy. Elkton, MD. crits4cats.petfinder.com

one year with JJ kitten alhamdullilah 🥰 I have to start planning for his birthday…😆

JJ is SO GRUMPY with me. How dare I put him in a carrier and take him to be fussed over and loved on and vaccinated?

RUDE.

It took lots of treat noises for him to emerge from hiding this evening 😂😂😂

It's okay everyone, don't panic! All is right with the world - JJ (finally!) let me huff the kitten!

He was so snuggly and only mildly worried about being huffed.

Are you looking for your perfect Valentine today? We have some adorable Sweet Treats (and some spicier ones, too!) who are all looking for their perfect matches at crits4cats.petfinder.com !

Ibis is SO happy it was treat time. He raced up to me and stood on my knee so he could have all the delicious tubes.

(JJ was a bit off to the side, Ibis wouldn't share so JJ got finger tube treats)

Working on her sass lessons today. She’s already a pro at “bite mom.”

Please admire glorious JJ who saw his sister Lily being brushed and decided he might like to also be brushed.

JJ has been very shy since being released from the crate, but he adored being brushed and getting churu treats. And now his mane is A+++ perfection.

Only slightly less beautiful than his sister is JJ.

JJ is still slightly skittish, but coming around beautifully. He's not into cuddles get, but he loves chin scratches and ear rubs.
July 11, 2025 at 8:13 AM
Look at this perfect floofball! JJ is doing amazingly well, today he is really leaning into pats and headbutting me! He also got his little ruff brushed out and enjoyed that.
