About Kelby

Kelby is a striking young cat with a unique silver coat and cream undercoat that catches the light as he moves. He’s about 10–11 months old and loves to greet people at the door, eager for pets and affection. Though a bit reserved at first, once Kelby gets comfortable, he turns into a cuddly companion with a deep, contented purr. He’s full of energy, always ready to play, and needs a home that can offer him plenty of activity and engagement. Kelby is still learning some boundaries—especially that hands are for petting rather than playful pouncing—so he’ll do best with older children who respect his space. He gets along well with other cats and, with the right introductions, adjusts well to dogs. Kelby is neutered, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and has tested negative for FeLV and FIV. He’s house trained and waiting for the right adopter in Allentown, PA. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
