Young · Female · Russian Blue / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 89 mi from Goose Creek

My name is Diva or little Diva. Right now I’m a tiny, petite girl. Despite being a kitten I’m fairly shy
but love to snuggle and purr. I need a little time to adjust to new people. I like some cats, but I tend to stay away from the super energetic ones that want to play all the time. They are a bit too much for me. I would do best with a calm dog and older children that have had experience with cats before.

Adopting a cat in Goose Creek

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
