Meet Water Hazard
Don't let the name fool you—Water Hazard is anything but trouble! This adorable brown tabby-and-white kitten is the kind of companion every golfer hopes to find on the course. Friendly, affectionate, and full of personality, he's a social butterfly who gets along wonderfully with cats, kids, and respectful dogs.
Water Hazard loves to climb to the highest perch in the clubhouse (or cat tree) to keep an eye on his surroundings, and you'll often find him gazing out the window, watching the world go by. When it's time to play, any wand toy is fair game, and he's always ready to chase, pounce, and show off his kitten skills.
After a round of play, Water Hazard is happy to be scooped up for cuddles. He enjoys being held, adores belly rubs, and will gladly settle in for some quality snuggle time. Because he's such a social little guy, Water Hazard needs a home with another friendly cat—or a family willing to adopt a feline buddy alongside him. He thrives with companionship and would love a teammate for life's next round.
If you're looking for a sweet, playful kitten who is guaranteed to be the best kind of Water Hazard you'll ever encounter, this little champion is ready to make a splash in your heart!
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why
Water Hazard
would do good with a friend, including:
-Two kittens keep each other entertained - they will play and get all their energy out on each other in time for snuggles with you!
-Having two kittens to play with each other prevents "I'm lonely and bored" behavioral issues.
-Watching two kittens wrestle is quite possibly the cutest thing you will ever see.
-The kittens will teach each other "how to cat" and learn to be more social with humans and people.
-You'll save two lives instead of one!
Water Hazard
is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations,
neutered
, and litter box trained.

If a cat or dog is on our website, it is still available for adoption but might have other applicants. If you find yourself interested in one of our animals, submit a no-commitment application immediately. Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal, but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions until your application has been approved in approximately 3-5 business days.
We do not schedule meetings until you have an approved application.
A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit all of our animals. The majority of our dogs and cats are brought to adoption events by our volunteers. We invite everyone to come to our events, but we give priority to pre-approved applicants.
If you’re invited to meet an animal:
- Plan to arrive early, as we cannot hold animals for any reason.
- All human household members and dogs (if adopting another dog), must be present in order to be considered as a potential adopter.
Thank you for your interest and cooperation!
