ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Winston is the kind, gentle observer of the group. While he doesn't hesitate to play with toys and his siblings, he seems content to casually take in the scene from a cozy perch when his brother and sisters have a livelier tussle. Winston is a purring snuggler always ready for head and body scratches.

Who turned off the lights? Meet the fabulous Midnight Crew-five adorable all-black kittens who are ready to prove that black cats are anything but ordinary! This playful bunch includes sisters Lola, Poppy, and Cleo, and brothers Winston and Otto. They're overflowing with kitten energy, always chasing toys, wrestling with each other, climbing to the highest perch, and then collapsing into the sweetest cuddle puddle for nap time. Raised in foster care, they're incredibly social, litter box trained, and wonderful with cats, dogs, and kids, making them an easy fit for almost any loving home.
Black cats are famous for their affectionate personalities, striking golden eyes, and sleek, panther-like beauty-and they always look effortlessly elegant! They may be the last to be chosen, but anyone who's loved a black cat knows they're often the very best companions: loyal, playful, loving, and full of personality. Give one (or better yet, a pair!) of these little house panthers a chance, and you'll gain a best friend who will brighten your life every single day.
Our kittens must be adopted in pairs or into a home with a young, friendly, and welcoming resident cat. We do not consider single-kitten adoptions because kittens thrive with a feline companion who helps them learn appropriate play, build confidence, and stay happy and well-socialized. Bringing home two kittens means double the fun, endless entertainment, and lifelong companionship-for both the kittens and you
