Merlin

Description

Meet Merlin! This sweet ball of fluff is the comedian of his litter, keeping everyone laughing with his zoomies and antics. He is energetic, bouncy, and always ready to turn anything into a game. Merlin is confident, social, and full of kitten charm. Like most young kittens, Merlin would be happiest in a home with feline companionship, so his ideal home will already have another friendly cat or be interested in adopting him with one of his siblings. Merlin has not yet met dogs but should adjust well to respectful canine friends. He is being fostered in Akron, Ohio, and was born around March 1, 2026. Merlin's adoption fee of $100 includes a negative test for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), neuter surgery, age-appropriate Rabies, FeLV and FVRCP vaccinations, deworming, topical flea prevention, and a microchip. If adopted with one of his siblings, the adoption fee for the pair is $150. His littermates are Dove, Robin, Lark, Wren, and Phoebe. Please note: Merlin's mother tested positive for FeLV and negative for FIV. Merlin tested negative for both viruses at 3 months of age after being separated from his mother. Current veterinary recommendations are that he and his littermates be retested at 5–6 months of age to confirm their negative status. If adopted before that time, Rose's Rescue will schedule and cover the cost of the follow-up testing.
