About Whitney

Whitney is a gentle soul who was rescued along with her kittens from a tough situation, bringing her to Felines & Friends in 2023. She’s quite shy and still learning to trust humans, but she thrives in the company of other cats. A quiet home where she can take her time developing confidence is ideal. Whitney would greatly benefit from access to a catio, where she can safely enjoy the outdoors. She's truly deserving of a forever home that will patiently help her blossom. Born around November 1, 2021, Whitney has been waiting for her chance to shine for far too long. If you think you can give her the loving home she deserves, consider applying today!
