About Velvet

Meet Velvet, a charming little tortie with a heart full of love! This adorable 6-week-old female kitten is available for pre-adoption and ready to be reserved for the right family. She'll be ready to go home at 10 weeks after completing her vetting. Velvet is incredibly affectionate, outgoing, and loves to be near her people, soaking up all the cuddles and companionship she can get. With her playful and social personality, it’s a joy to have her around. Whether she’s chasing toys or curling up for a post-activity snuggle, Velvet fills the room with warmth and happiness. She gets along well with people, other cats, and kids, and with a gradual introduction, she would likely adapt well to dogs too. For Velvet’s social development, it’s important to note that she must be adopted with another kitten unless there is already a young, playful cat in the home (under 5 years old). When she is ready to go home, Velvet will be spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, flea-treated, and microchipped. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate kitten with a playful spirit and striking tortoiseshell markings, Velvet is eager to steal your heart. Ready to meet her?
