My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Smitten!

Smitten is a resilient little kitten with a heart as unique as her coat. While she may appear to be a black kitten at first glance, look closer, and you’ll see she’s actually a stunning tortie, with subtle hints of tan and white sprinkled through her fur.

Smitten arrived at the shelter with a fractured leg and pelvis, but she’s been healing beautifully in her foster home. Despite her shy nature, she’s made incredible progress and is learning to trust with the help of patient care, tasty treats, and lots of playtime.

This clever girl has mastered the art of fetch with her favorite sparkle ball and is always up for a churu treat! She adores the adult cats in her foster home, often looking to them for guidance, and would thrive in a quiet home with a feline friend to keep her company.

Smitten needs a kind and patient adopter who understands that trust takes time—but the reward of her love and playful spirit will be worth every moment. Could you be the one to give her the forever home she deserves?
