About Ishi

Meet Ishi! This sweet little kitten is ready to find her forever home. While she enjoys some independence and playtime with her siblings, she’s not much of a snuggler. Instead, Ishi prefers to check in with her fosters, offering big purrs and head nuzzles when she wants attention. She can be quite dramatic during playtime; her vocal growls can sound alarming, but it's just her way of saying she's had enough of the sibling roughhousing. Ishi loves to climb to tall spots, lay in wait for the perfect sneak attack on her siblings, and play with blankets. She appreciates when water is added to her bowl, showing her playful side. Ishi is accustomed to being around dogs and other adult cats, and she gets along well with both. This playful and quirky little lady is eager to meet you. Come make her part of your family today!
