Bombay and Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

EQUAL PARTS CUDDLY AND PLAYFUL

DOB 3/6/26

Hey there, everyone! I’m Onyx, a lively, playful Bombay mix fella kitten with a sleek black coat, big heart, and an even bigger purr. I love chasing string toys and showing off my playful side, but I’m just as happy cuddled in Foster Meowmy’s lap for a cozy nap once I’ve burned off some energy. At night, you’ll often find me curled up on top of her, contentedly fast asleep.

The #gemstone-trio, which includes my siblings, Jet and Sapphire, and me, were found at an apartment complex when we were just three weeks old. We were crying because our momma was nowhere in sight. Who knows whether she abandoned us or if she just couldn’t get back to us for some reason? Thankfully Foster Meowmy took us to the safe haven of her home, cared for us, and helped us to grow strong and healthy. The three of us enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling all day long – until we collapse in a kitten puddle when we’re exhausted.

I’m very comfortable around the two gentle young children, ages 4 and 7, in my foster home. I also absolutely adore the adult male resident cat. He not only plays with me but also he’s been serving as my surrogate uncle by teaching me all the important “cat manners” that Momma would’ve taught me if she’d been around.

Now I’m ready to bless my forever family with my big heart, innocent eyes, and roaring purr motor. Could that be you? Although we’re available separately as long as there's another feline in your home, it’d be the cat’s meow if you decided to adopt me with another of the #gemstone-trio. Two is more fun than one for you, and we could be playmates and snuggle buddies when you’re at work or on vacation. If you’re looking for an energetic, affectionate companion who’s equal parts playful and cuddly, I could be the perfect addition to your home. Arrange to meet me today! Let’s see if you can guess the decibels of my purr motor!
