About Hypatia

Hypatia may be named after a renowned philosopher, but this little girl is mostly caught up in her mischievous antics. She can be a bit shy at first; when she meets new people, her instinct is to dart away and watch from a safe distance. Just ignore her for a moment and start playing with a toy, and soon you'll see her tiny face peek out, followed by a stealthy approach and a perfectly timed pounce. Once Hypatia knows you're safe, her personality shines through. A good cheek scratch gets her purring like a motorboat. She's a loving kitten who enjoys playtime and snuggles, forming strong bonds with her humans thanks to her bottle-raised beginnings. Discovered all alone at three weeks old, she has blossomed into an affectionate and curious companion full of quirky charm. Hypatia appreciates a gentle introduction and a bit of patience as she comes out of her shell. Give her some time, a toy to chase after, and let her sneak up on you, and she will reward you with playful antics, warm cuddles, and a remarkably loud purr. Hypatia is poised to philosophize her way into your heart. Hypatia has been spayed, is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines, has tested negative for FeLV/FIV, and is microchipped.
