About Shine

Shine is a striking male kitten with lovely gray and white markings and a delicate pinkish nose. Rescued from the streets of Philadelphia, he and his siblings—Glow, Ray, and Glimmer—were fortunate to find safety with a dedicated trapper. Currently in foster care in Delaware County, PA, these kittens, likely around 2-3 months old, are making remarkable progress. While Shine is a bit shy compared to his siblings, he is thriving with the right support. It's important for potential adopters to be experienced cat owners, as he requires patience and understanding to adjust fully. Shine has already been neutered, vaccinated, and will soon be tested for FIV and FELV. He gets along well with other cats, making him a versatile addition to any home. This sweet kitten is ready to find his forever family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
