Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Corpus Christi, Texas

Cressida is a precious little tabby girl born January 8, 2026. She came from a heartbreaking situation--her mother was left behind in an empty home, locked in a small room where she gave birth to six kittens. Despite everything, her mother fought to keep her babies alive. Tragically, two of the kittens did not survive, but Cressida and her remaining siblings were rescued together.

Cressida has a bit of left-side facial nerve damage from her difficult start. Her left ear sits slightly lower, she doesn't blink that eye as often, and she tends to chew and meow more from the right side. Our veterinarian has evaluated her and believes this was caused during birth.

The good news is that Cressida is otherwise healthy and thriving. Most importantly, she is incredibly sweet and full of love.

She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find a safe, loving home where she can truly shine.
