ABOUT THE GIRLS

Sage, Moss, Ash, Willow, and Briar are a group of five incredibly loving, playful, high energy kittens who were born on March 21, 2026 (guesstimated).

They were all spayed on July 16, 2026, received their final FVRCP booster, rabies vaccine, microchip, and had their nails trimmed.

They are officially ready for adoption August 28th or later.

These girls have been raised in a foster home with multiple other cats and respectful dogs (Saint Bernard, Maltipoo, Pomsky). They are confident, social, affectionate, and extremely people oriented.

They love to cuddle with their foster mom, often falling asleep on her chest or tucked into her neck.

They also love being with each other. This is a very bonded group.
