About Marlowe

Meet Marlowe! Born around June 25, 2026, he's a black and white kitten with an incredible comeback story. He and his sister Marnie were discovered taped in a cardboard box, but thankfully, they had air holes. Marlowe faced a tougher challenge: while his eyes were kept, his vision is limited. After treatment, he’s fully healthy with no medication needed—his eyes are just part of his charm. You'd never guess his sight affects him. Marlowe zips around, plays, and gets into typical kitten mischief. He may need time to adjust to new spaces, but once he’s settled, his confidence shines through. After a play session, he transforms into a cuddle bug, especially if treats are around! Marlowe showcases that a rough start doesn’t diminish a cat's spirit. He’s playful and affectionate, ready to share his heart with the right family. To meet Marlowe and other adoptable Purr Partners kitties at one of our weekend adoptathon events: 1) review our adoption policies, and 2) apply to become a pre-approved adopter today!
