Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Part of our larger "bird" kitten crew, we have sibling/cousins Dove (grey female), Blackbird (black female), Wren (brown tabby female), Duck (brown tabby male), and Sparrow (brown tabby male) and their moms, Owl (grey tabby female) and Chickadee (grey female). Owl and Chickadee are sisters and had their litters together before coming into the care of our rescue. While we don't know which kittens are birth siblings, they've all grown up together and get along well! They are all playful and love to zoom around, chase springs, and be entertained be wand toys. They are also good at using their posts and cardboard scratchers and enjoy some catnip and treats.
Blackbird is a little shy around humans. She will come out to play and tolerate some pets but doesn't want to be picked up or approached. She will do well in a quieter home with patient humans who can steadily earn her trust and respect her boundaries.
Our preference is for Blackbird to be adopted with her sister Dove or one of her other siblings/cousins. As with most of our kittens, we will not place her in a home without another young cat.
Blackbird is at the lounge, so you can visit her there during open hours!
