About Sage

Sage came to the rescue with two groups of kittens after living outside. Now in a foster home with her siblings Aspen, Birch, and Onyx, Sage is learning to navigate indoor life alongside other cats and a dog. At around 3 months old, she’s a lovely solid gray kitten with a small white spot on her chest. Initially shy, Sage opens up when she feels secure, revealing her playful nature. She adores her toys and enjoys exploring. With her gentle demeanor, she just needs some time and patience to flourish. If you're interested in meeting Sage, please reach out to arrange a visit. Adoption hours are by appointment only.
