Starling Grant is a 3-month-old male Domestic Short Hair, mostly black and small in size. He’s had his vaccinations up to date and is currently healthy. Starling's playful spirit and affection promise to bring joy into your life. He’s located in Merrifield, VA, and adoption will require local considerations regarding other cats.

About Starling Grant

Starling Grant is a lively little kitten who was born in July 2026. Raised in a loving home, he’s learned to be confident and enjoys cuddles and playtime. Starling gets along well with other cats, so he’ll thrive in a home with another young, active cat or one of his siblings. He’s already received his age-appropriate vaccines and will be microchipped before adoption. Starling’s mother has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Note that he will require neutering when he’s older. If you can provide a nurturing environment for Starling and have another feline pal, he might just be the perfect fit for you. 4Paws will only consider local adoptions in the Northern Virginia, DC, or Maryland metropolitan area. They do not adopt to students, and kittens under 6 months old are required to be placed in homes with another active cat of similar age unless they’re adopted with a sibling from their current foster home. Make your move and give Starling a loving forever home!
