About Opal

Meet Opal, a charming orange tabby with distinct markings and an endearing personality. This female is a unique find, as female orange tabbies are rarer compared to their male counterparts due to genetics. Found with her five siblings hiding under a barbecue grill cover, Opal and her litter were initially scared and unsure of human contact. With some tender care in foster, they've blossomed, embracing the joys of indoor life, companionship, and playful antics. Opal is especially sweet and loves to be near you, happily purring just because you're nearby. She's also a spirited little one who enjoys wrestling and chasing after toys with her siblings. Her bond with her sister Sapphire is heartwarming; they often play together and curl up after a day of fun. You can spot Opal by her unique trait of curling her tail's end! Opal is currently available for pre-adoption and would thrive in a forever home, especially if she comes with a sibling, ensuring she has a built-in playmate. If you’re seeking a playful, affectionate kitten with a lovely purr, Opal might just be your perfect match! Click apply to start the adoption process.
