About Waffles

Waffles is an adorable orange kitten with the longest ear hair and two distinct freckles on his nose. He might be a bit shy at first, but he’s well-behaved, especially during vet visits. Waffles loves playing with string toys and his 'meowtain.' He enjoys wrestling with his brothers and sleeping snuggled up in a pile with his siblings. Waffles is a percher, so having a tall cat tower would be perfect for him. He needs to be adopted alongside a sibling or into a home that already has a young kitten under a year old. Almost Home adopts kittens under six months in pairs to ensure they socialize properly. This approach helps kittens learn good manners while giving them a playmate, allowing their humans some peaceful nights. Almost Home has specific adoption requirements including being at least 21 years old, having the consent of all adults in the household, and living within the greater Chicagoland area. If you're interested in making Waffles a part of your family, complete an adoption application online or reach out for more details.
