About Francine

Meet Francine! This engaging kitten thrives on companionship. At 6-8 months old, she’s female and spayed, with all her core vaccines up to date and a clean bill of health regarding FELV/FIV. She’s ready for regular vet visits, and her records will be shared with her new family. Currently in foster care, Francine is living harmoniously with a 7-year-old cat after a thoughtful 1-2 week introduction. While her experiences with kids and dogs are yet to be explored, slow introductions are always best for helping kitties adjust. Having transitioned from an outdoor life, Francine has blossomed indoors. She's often found near you, making biscuits with her paws or zipping around and chirping! Her adoption fee is generously sponsored by a vet who rescued her and many of her friends, allowing her new family to bring her home for free with a commitment to a safe indoor lifestyle. Francine is currently on Purina Live Clear food, making her a low-allergen companion as long as her diet stays consistent. Make Francine a part of your life—your new best friend is waiting!
