Bengal and Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Silver Spring, Maryland

Previously a stray, Mabel showed up at her rescuer's back yard and went through the Trap Neuter Release (TNR) process. But during her spay recovery her rescuers realized how sweet of a kitten she is. A lap cat in training! She quickly warms up to people and loves pets and cuddles.

For a growing kitten she has a full size purr engine. Mabel has a lot of kitten energy. When she's not napping she loves to play. The toughest question for her is "What toy is my favorite right now?" She also loves meowing at the birds and squirrels in the windows.

Still very much an active kitten, Mabel gets along well with her foster roommates and would do best in an environment with other cats/pets or with a family that can satisfy her need for play.

This cat is spayed, current on vaccinations and preventatives, and litter box trained.

The adoption fee for this cat is $200.
