ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Trio of sisters were found during TNR in rural Virginia. They had no experience with people and come to foster to learn that people are not all scary. The kittens have been settling in and gaining confidence, each at her own pace. They must be adopted in pairs or to homes with young, welcoming, active cats. They are likely too shy for really active homes or homes with small kids who may not yet understand boundaries with shy cats.

Sylvie is the bravest of the sisters. She’s started climbing in her foster mom’s lap for soft pets and cuddles. Sylvie is a dilute gray tortie.

Comet is next with building her confidence, slowing allowing pets and responding with lots of purrs! Comet is a black tortie.

Eclipse is still the shyest of the trio, but we know it’s only a matter of time until she, too, enjoys the pets and cuddles. Eclipse is a tuxedo.
