About Scruffy

Scruffy is a kitten with a shy side and a lot of heart. He tends to be nervous meeting new people, but every day he’s building his confidence, starting to realize things aren’t so scary. If you approach with patience and a gentle touch, you’ll see his playful streak and love of silly antics come out. Chasing toys and running with his siblings are some of his favorite pastimes, and once he feels comfortable, there’s no shortage of kitten mischief. A calm environment is a must for Scruffy. He thrives with another social cat for companionship and would likely adapt to a home with a well-mannered dog or older, considerate children. The rescue follows a bonded pair policy for kittens, so Scruffy will need to be adopted with a buddy to support his social growth. Underneath his timidity is an affectionate kitten eager to bond with someone special. Give Scruffy time, and he’ll reward you with love, laughter, and plenty of memorable moments.
