About A cappella

A Cappella is a very timid kitten who will need a patient, understanding home to help her build confidence and trust. While she may be scared at first, the right family can help her come out of her shell with time. She’s available through a foster-to-adopt program, giving you a chance to start your journey together now, with adoption completed after her spay surgery is finalized. Her rescue strongly encourages kittens to be adopted in pairs, or into homes with an existing young cat, to prevent behavioral issues like biting or excessive vocalizing. Kittens thrive best with a feline playmate around, learning boundaries and getting the rich social experience they crave. Because A Cappella is still young, she’s best suited for adopters who can provide plenty of gentle interaction and a friendly, stable home—especially if you already have another cat, or if you’re ready for double the fun by adopting a pair. She gets along well with other cats and is already house trained. At just 8 months old, she’s full of potential waiting to be unlocked with calm, steady care. A Cappella is located in Portland, IN and, for the astrology-minded, her Virgo sun means she may appreciate a predictable, calm environment. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
