About Blackfoot

Blackfoot is a playful 5-month-old tabby kitten, weighing around 5 pounds with the typical markings of black, orange, and white. She has a unique black patch on her left hind foot, helping to distinguish her from her sister Tiger Lily, who has a patch on her right foot. This little purr machine is not just affectionate; she truly enjoys being around her foster mom, often running to greet her and following her around the house. When she's not playing with her siblings, Blackfoot entertains herself by tossing her toys or making a dash through the cat tunnels. She’s very bonded with her brother and sister, so if she's adopted, it would be wonderful for one or both to join her in her forever home. Blackfoot also does well with other adult cats, making her a great addition to various households. Although she hasn’t met any dogs yet, she should adjust easily with a slow introduction. All of our cats come spayed, microchipped, and with their initial age-appropriate vaccinations. Kittens must be adopted in pairs unless another young, energetic cat is in the home.
