Hi, I’m Owl — the quiet, thoughtful one of the bunch. I like to keep to myself sometimes, but don’t let that fool you... I’ve got a playful streak. Pens are my favorite toys, and I’m known for "borrowing" my foster mom’s pen whenever she wasn’t looking. (A cat’s gotta keep busy, right?) One of my other favorite toys is a little monkey with Velcro paws. My human once wrapped it around a chair leg, and I carefully pulled the paws apart piece by piece. I’m not sure if that makes me a thinker or a stinker — maybe both! Cats like me can be a bit of a mystery, even to humans who know us well. But if you appreciate a quiet, clever companion with a gentle heart and a curious mind, I just might be your perfect match. Almost Home adopts kittens under 6 months of age in pairs, as kittens that young are not fully socialized and need a same/similar-age playmate in order not to become a nuisance to family members—including other pets in the home. Adopting kittens in pairs allows them to complete the kitty socialization process, learn good kitty manners, and have a playmate so their humans can sleep at night. We consider adopting single kittens to applicants who have another young kitty under 1 year of age, provided the applicant’s kitten is up to date on all age-appropriate vetting.
