About Smokey

Smokey is a charming little mystery! At just 10 weeks old, she’s still getting her bearings but shows promise for a bright future. She needs a gentle hand at first, so adopting families should ideally have some experience with cats, especially with kittens. It’s important to limit contact with young children during her settling period, ensuring that she feels safe and secure as she grows accustomed to her new home. The prominent colors in her coat are a lovely gray with white accents, highlighting her soft features. Smokey is vaccinated and ready to find her forever family. Every animal deserves a happy ending.
