'Silly And Very Playful' Dillon Is Northport Adoptable Pet Of The Week

NORTHPORT, NY — Dillon, a 5-month-old male, is the Northport Cat Rescue Association's
Kitten of the Week.

"Dillon loves to be pet so much that when you stop petting him, he chirps!" said Lora Wild, a volunteer with the rescue. "While petting him he will walk around you and start pushing his head into your free hand for more pets even though you are already petting him with your other hand!"

He is silly and very playful, Wild said. His favorite toy is his laser light, as he will chase it from one end of a room to the other. He loves his tunnel. Wild finds it adorable when he peeks his head out and then falls asleep in there.

"Dillon will follow you all around and would love to play with another fur baby as well!" Wild said. "The kitty Dillon is being fostered with refuses to play with him as much as poor Dillon tries. It doesn’t matter though because he can entertain himself for hours."Dillon loves treats and will cover them with his tiny paw so people cannot steal them from him while he is snacking on them, according to Wild. He has beautiful markings, with an all-white left hind leg, she added.

"Sweet Dillon is currently in foster care, because he gets scared in the habitats, so if you would like to meet this wonderful boy, please fill out an application and we can set up a meet and greet with this amazing kitten. He is such a good boy and has come such a long way from his first days in rescue. You will fall in love with this affectionate boy, we guarantee it!"

Dillon is neutered, has all his shots, is litter box-trained, micro-chipped and FELV/FIV negative.

Northport Cat Rescue Association is having an adoption event scheduled for 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 22 at Petco Commack, at 30 Veterans Memorial Highway, Commack.

The event, initially scheduled for Saturday, was moved to the following weekend because of anticipated rain.
