Hi, I'm Cassie! I'm the quiet, thoughtful one of my litter. I like to sit back and watch what's going on before deciding if I want to join in. Every now and then you'll catch me wrestling with my siblings or chasing a toy mouse or a ball, but I'm just as happy observing all the excitement from a cozy spot nearby.

I can be a little shy when we first meet, but don't let that fool you. As soon as you pick me up, I melt right into your arms and soak up all the love and attention you have to give. I have a sweet, gentle heart and really enjoy cuddling once I know I'm safe.

I'm litter box trained and would thrive in a calm, quiet home where I can build my confidence at my own pace. If you're looking for a gentle companion who will reward your patience with lots of snuggles and quiet affection, I would love to be your new best friend.

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.

Mom & Me eligible! Adopt Cassie at the regular adoption fee and add their mom, Turtle, for just $25. Search for her name to view her profile.
