ADOPTING KITTENS IN PAIRS
Kittens need interaction with other kittens for healthy social development. A kitten learns a lot in the first several months of life from its mother and littermates. Separating a kitten from its mother is often a necessity for adoption purposes, but taking it away from its littermates and isolating can delay the kitten’s development emotionally, socially, and sometimes physically. Kittens who can remain with one of their littermates or a similarly aged companion tend to be healthier, happier, and better socialized pets than those who are isolated from others of their kind at an early age.

The mission of The Homeless Animal Rescue Team (HART) of Cincinnati is to save unwanted, neglected, and abused cats and dogs and build positive relationships with our community. While in our care, our animals will receive nourishing food, shelter, vet care, and lots of love until they are adopted into the perfect family.
As a non-profit rescue, HART's vision is to put all of our resources, both human and financial, into the well-being of the cats and dogs we save. As an all volunteer organization, HART strives to keep administrative costs to a minimum so that every penny possible goes towards the care of our furry friends.
All Hart Animals Receive:
HART partners with several veterinary clinics/hospitals in and around the tri-state area that go above and beyond to provide excellent medical care to all our cats and dogs. All of our animals receive necessary vaccines, fecal tests, FIV/FeLV/4dx/heartworm testing, spay/neuter, and microchip, prior to adoption.
