Adelaide is a small, one-month-old female domestic short-haired kitten with a striking black and white tuxedo coat. She is house trained, spayed, and her vaccinations are up to date.

About Adelaide

Adelaide is a playful little kitten who first found herself in the care of Animal Control after being separated from her nursing mother. Thankfully, she and her siblings—Lucinda, Gwendolyn, and Millicent—have grown strong and healthy despite their rocky start. They are all indoors and primed to be loving household pets. While Adelaide hasn't been around dogs or children yet, with proper introductions, she’s expected to adapt well. Families should note that kittens like her thrive best when adopted in pairs unless there’s an existing cat at home. Adopting a kitten means ensuring a safe indoor environment only, as she is not geared for outdoor living. With her age-appropriate vaccinations, spaying, testing, and microchipping all taken care of, Adelaide is ready to find her forever home. Each adoption is a commitment, and potential adopters must adhere to specific guidelines set forth by Feline Matchmakers. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
