Raven was born March 13, 2024 - the FIRST of five "X-MEOW" kittens - a beautiful dark Torti born 3rd out of 5 siblings to her mom, Turkey. Raven is named after the X-Men character, the shape-shifting Mystique, whose real name is Raven Darkholme!
What Raven loves:
Raven is the first to say hello! She puts herself forward to greet you and get your attention. She takes initiative! And from there, she marches to her own drumbeat. She's off to play with siblings & her mom, explore new spaces, watch the scenery out the window.
She is an agile, athletic play kitty who can jump over or slide under her siblings. And she is FAST when she wants to be. Raven exudes confidence. Like all of her siblings, she absolutely adores the "laser globe," a little globe that can both manually and automatically run a circular laser pattern from a table onto the floor in front of it in 15-minute sequences. The bigger the field, the more fun it is!
Raven loves to be pet and enjoys being held. She's slim, statuesque, and a little delicate for human hands - so just make sure you handle her gently when picking her up.

All of the X-meows enjoy watching the "Cats 24/7" and "Pet Collective" channels on the free PlutoTV streaming app. And for sleepy time, they really love & appreciate the YouTube "Cats Only" channel, especially the Harp Music + Purring video... though any music + purring video there will do!
What Raven has:
All of the X-meow kitties have a nightly satisfying serving of canned pate' cat food, as well as anytime access to premium dry food that's replenished twice daily. They also have a constant running water fountain to drink from. They live separately from our main house cats, in a 300SF pool house that's air conditioned and adorned with cushion beds, play trees, tunnels, a hammock, and of course several toys. They've shared two jumbo-size stainless steel litter boxes that are cleaned twice a day. The room is automatically cleaned daily by a robot vac that the kitties all find amusing, as well as cleaned weekly by a human with a regular vacuum!
In addition to their scheduled vaccinations, the X-meow kitties receive a topical flea treatment the first day of each month, as well as have their environment safely maintained to prevent flea growth. All have been spayed / neutered. As for play and attention, their CatDads spend hours a day with them! They are all fun and loving, each in their own unique way, and we shower them with as much love as possible!
What Raven needs:
Because of Raven's independent side, it can be too easy for her to get lost in the crowd - and she does not want that! She wants your attention and appreciates it. So it's important to take the same level of initiative she gives, and seek her out to spend time with her and give her affection.
She also needs the kind of cat parent who sees her as a special relationship, not just a pet / owner. She will also give first place in line to someone who adopts her along with one of her fellow "X-Meows!" Her best bond is with mom, Turkey. While all the siblings love mom Turkey, Raven is the most in-tune with and attentive toward her. All of them have unique bonds with each other, so they will each feel safe and happy more easily, and more likely successfully adapt in your home & heart if they can do so being together.
And to make that journey a little easier, Raven and her adopted X-MEOW companion come with accessories! Including a new stainless steel litter box & scoop, a new second cat carrier (since you'll be needing two!), and more!
