In the shelter’s words

This kitten is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $75 if picked up in TN.* Visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/cat-adoption-application/ to apply. Stripes is the kind of kitten who is always watching, always learning, and always ready for the next game. He’s a 5 month old, Brown Tabby colored Domestic Short Hair cutie! This handsome gray tabby has an eye catching coat, an expressive face, and a curious personality that keeps him in the middle of every adventure. He loves racing after his siblings, climbing to the highest spots he can find, and turning catnip mice into worthy opponents. He's also fascinated by whatever his people are doing and enjoys supervising chores to make sure everything is done correctly. While Stripes is full of energy, he also has a quieter side. After a busy play session, he's happy to settle down nearby and wait for gentle pets. He isn't especially interested in being carried around, but he enjoys companionship and affection in his own way, making those moments when he chooses to cuddle feel extra special. With his athletic build and adventurous spirit, Stripes would thrive in an indoor home with room to run, climb, and explore. He would especially enjoy having a playful feline companion to wrestle and chase, and a family that appreciates a cat who likes to stay close while keeping a little independent streak. If you're looking for a smart, playful kitten who will keep you smiling and be your quiet little sidekick, Stripes would love to meet you. Reach out to A.A.R.F. by text at 931-260-8018 or visit www.aarf-tn.com to learn more about adopting him. * $175 plus transport fee (varies) for adoptions to the Northeast.
