About Skipper

Meet Skipper, a charming baby boy and a Domestic Long Hair with a playful mix of white and black fur. Being what we call a "Tiny Spirit Kitten," he has had little socialization during the first few months of his life. With patience and dedication, you can help him adjust to a loving home environment. Some kittens like Skipper may bloom into affectionate companions, while others may retain a hint of shyness. It's important to confine him to a small room with essentials as he adjusts. Skipper can thrive well with other pets, and he might even warm up to children, depending on his comfort level. He'll come with guidance and instructions to help make the transition seamless. Ready to bring home your new furry friend? Skipper is located in Springfield, MA, waiting for you!
