About Socks

Meet Socks, a playful little guy whose name comes from a fond memory of him sitting on his foster parents' feet as a kitten. He and his siblings faced a rough start; they were abandoned in a crate during a hot summer day when they were just four weeks old. Thankfully, a neighborhood watch group rescued them, bringing Socks into a loving foster home. Today, he’s a healthy and vibrant kitten, full of affection. Socks enjoys engaging with both humans and other cats, and while he hasn't met dogs yet, he’s young enough to adapt to cat-friendly ones. Climbing is one of his favorite pastimes, especially on his beloved cat tower. Now up to date on vaccinations and ready for his forever home, Socks is seeking a family to share adventures with. Could that be you? Click apply to start the adoption process.
