About Candy

Candy must be adopted with her mom or one of her siblings. At just five months old, this sweet tortie kitten was born on April 28, 2026, after her pregnant stray mom was rescued. She's the shyest in her litter but is gradually coming out of her shell with tender patience. Like her mother, Wendy, Candy has a beautiful tortie coat and shares a close bond with her family. You can often find her napping on the bed or cuddled up next to her mom or siblings. Candy loves to chill, balancing playtime with cozy cleaning sessions. While she enjoys the company of her cats at home, she can be cautious around new felines and would thrive in a calm environment, ideally without dogs or with very slow introductions. She often sneaks into cubbies and tunnels for her naps, showing off her playful side every now and then. If you're interested in bringing Candy into your life, consider giving a home to her and her mother, as they are quite bonded and almost like twins. This lovely kitten is waiting for someone who can provide love and understanding. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
