About Stocking

Stocking is a young female cat packed with personality and charm. This small, brown chocolate-colored kitten greets the world with a motorboat purr that seems far too bold for her tiny frame. You’ll always find her looking for a spot next to you—there’s nothing she loves more than curling up close and humming softly as she dozes. Her playful side never takes a break. Give her a toy, and she’ll chase, pounce, and bat it for ages, making you forget your worries with the simplicity of her antics. Stocking is new here in Columbia, MO, so her full story is still unfolding, but one thing is clear: she has plenty of love and energy to offer the right home. You might find yourself laughing at her silly tail-chasing or melting a little every time she snuggles in just a bit closer. She’s a Libra, too, which might explain her warm, sociable nature.
