Quick Look Name: Balki Breed: Domestic Shorthair Age: Kitten Size: Little guy, big heart Special Traits: Cuddly, gentle, and completely smitten with his brother Belvedere Bonded Pair: Must be adopted with Belvedere About Balki Balki is the kind of kitten who will quietly steal your heart. He might be a little hesitant at first, and new spaces and loud voices are not really his thing. Once he feels safe, he melts into a puddle of soft purrs and will happily roll over for tummy rubs. Sweet-natured and emotionally in sync with his brother Belvedere, Balki is never far from his sibling's side. They play together, nap together, and face the world as a team. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate duo with huge cuddle potential, you're looking for these boys. Personality Highlights Soft & Shy: A little slow to warm up, but gentle and curious when he feels safe. Tummy Rub Prodigy: Will roll over for belly rubs like it's his favorite job—and it kind of is. Snuggle Monster: Once he trusts you, Balki loves to curl up next to you (or right on you). Loyal Little Brother: Deeply bonded with Belvedere—they comfort and bring out the best in each other. Loves His brother Belvedere Tummy rubs and gentle pets Cozy corners and soft blankets Treats, toys, and calm voices Not a Fan Of Loud noises or sudden movements Being alone—he finds comfort in company, especially his brother Being rushed—slow intros build deep trust with this sweet boy Ideal Home Balki and Belvedere are looking for: A calm and patient home that gives them time to come out of their shells A family ready to adopt both brothers together—they’re a lifelong pair Someone who values kitten snuggles and soft-bellied trust A quiet space with gentle routines and lots of cozy nooks Balki and Belvedere are ready to bring soft joy, silly play, and sweet cuddles to a lucky home. If you're looking to double your kitten love, these bonded brothers are waiting to meet you. Part of adopting a kitten is recognizing that they are babies, and you will get to see firsthand how their wonderful natures develop! Prior to adoption, all kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. Kittens under 5 months old must be adopted with a buddy or into a house where there's a kitten-friendly pet. This kitten is currently in a foster home. To meet this kitten, please fill out an adoption application so that we'll have your contact information, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. www.thedancingcat.org/adoptJune 21, 2025, 12:00 am
