Meet Eye Spy! Eye Spy spent the first 8 weeks of her life living outdoors, and unfortunately, she came into rescue with a ruptured eye. This can happen from trauma or from an eye infection that went untreated for too long. Once Eye Spy was safely caught, she was able to see a veterinarian right away and had surgery to remove her damaged eye.
And now? This little girl is discovering just how wonderful the indoor life can be!
Since coming into foster care, Eye Spy has been warming up beautifully. She is purring, happy, incredibly cuddly, and even starting to play! She hadn't had much positive human interaction before coming into rescue, so she's still learning that people are safe, kind, and very good at providing things like cozy beds, tasty meals, and plenty of attention.
Every day, Eye Spy is becoming a little more confident and showing us more of her sweet personality. She's proving that even after a rough start, a kitten can learn to trust, feel safe, and absolutely thrive when given the chance.
Eye Spy may have one less eye, but that certainly doesn't slow her down. She's ready to continue learning, growing, and being spoiled like the special little girl she is!

Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats' emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of "Single Kitten Syndrome" (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten's most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
