Mabel (about 5 months old as of 12/5/23) is a spayed female brown tabby shorthaired kitten. Mabel and her sisters were born to a feral cat in Winthrop Harbor that we've been trying to trap and spay for over 2 years. Thankfully we finally caught her this time, but her 3 newest daughters were about 10 weeks old and already turning feral. With some intense TLC in a foster home they've made a lot of progress and are now ready to be adopted as pet cats. Mabel is the "leader" of her litter and came around to people the fastest. She's the first one to greet people and the most enthusiastic about getting attention and being held. She's still going to be a little shy with new people but she loves being petted and playing with people. She gets along great with her sisters and would probably do best adopted along with one of them or as a little sister to another young playful kitty. She has never lived with a dog and because she's a little more shy we think she'd do best in a cat only household without any especially young children that couldn't give a shy kitty more space and quiet time as she gets used to them.
