Ophelia

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Ophelia is located in Alexandria VA   Ophelia came into the rescue with her baby kitten Caris when she herself was practically still a baby! Mom is estimated 3 years old now and is a very petite and beautiful little girl. She is a front polydactyl with toes for days - she looks like she's wearing mittens! She came into the rescue very timid and skittish, but every day with her foster family she flourished into a girl with confidence. It started with her foster family being able to pet her while she ate, to her actively seeking out affection. She struts around her foster home with big cat energy, despite being the smallest cat in the house. She's hilarious and will often look like she's chasing nothing, until you realize that she's following a dust ball or small movements in the air. She's also been caught chasing her tail a time or two. When you enter the room, she might chirp and approach you for pets, leading to her plopping at your feet. She's content to sit under her foster human's desk by her feet when she works from home. She's still hesitant about being picked up but we are working on it. She's an ideal kitty for someone who wants a low-key pet - not too clingy but still present in your life. She has no issues with other cats - in fact, we've seen her cuddling with the other cats in the home.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 9, 2025, 12:22 pm
