Paloma (about 9 months old as of July, 2025) is a spayed female brown tabby and white shorthaired kitten. Paloma and her sisters were born to a stray cat in Grayslake who was picked up by animal control right around when they were weaned, leaving the kittens to fend for themselves when they were just barely old enough to survive without mama! Thankfully within about a week the girls were trapped and put into foster care but their harrowing ordeals left them much more weary than most kittens their age. Baby Paloma was oh so sassy but her fierce attitude was because she's naturally bold and she came around the fastest to being handled by humans. Now she likes being carried around all day and flops over to show off her cute tummy and beg for more pets. She's also very vocal- expect to have long back and forth conversations about how you should indeed be petting Paloma. She is great with other cats, and because she is so goofy and playful we think she'd do best in a home with another young playful cat she can play with, especially her sister Doug. She also gets along well with dogs, but the dogs they live with have not taught them respect, so she would need to live with a cat-experienced dog who won't be offended if a silly cat goes diving into their food dish. She doesn't have experience living with little kids but would have a lot of fun playing with older kids.
