About Ziggy

Ziggy is a black tiger-striped kitten who's pure personality packed into a small frame. Don’t let his size fool you—he’s got plenty of energy, seems absolutely determined to entertain himself, and keeps busy playing through his kennel bars. Ziggy craves interaction and adventure, clearly tired of being cooped up. He sports sleek black fur with faint tiger stripes and a mischievous twinkle in his eye. His time before coming to the shelter wasn’t easy—he’s recovered from surgery on one ear and has some lingering injuries to his left front leg, most likely from an attack. Still, none of this dims his spark for a second. He bounces back with full kitten power, ready to run, climb, and turn every corner into a playground. Ziggy’s feisty spirit and love of play will keep life interesting, and he’s just waiting for a home where he can finally stretch his legs and be free.
