Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Frida is a beautiful orange and white kitten with a tender heart who is still learning that the world is safe. She's going to need an adopter with extra patience and a quiet home where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace.

She's still very shy, but we're seeing such sweet progress. Frida now sleeps out in her basket and no longer runs the moment someone approaches. When she gets nervous, she'll tuck her tail and curl into a tiny little ball - it's her way of protecting herself. But if you gently keep petting her, she slowly relaxes... and then the loudest, sweetest purr starts rumbling. That's the real Frida in there.

Playtime is where her brave side really shines. She absolutely loves the laser pointer and will chase it with total joy, often forgetting she's supposed to be shy - until she suddenly realizes she's gotten close to you and does a quick reset. She also really enjoys playing with Nightshade and thrives when she has another kitten to help her feel safe and confident.

Frida will need a friendly cat in her new home to continue helping her blossom. She's not currently a fan of the dog she's briefly encountered, but those meetings have been quick transitions through the house, so she may be able to adjust with very slow, thoughtful introductions.

Frida is not an instant-gratification kitten. She's a quiet, sensitive soul who needs time, patience, and understanding. But for the right person - someone willing to let her unfold at her own pace - she will be incredibly rewarding. Beneath the fear is a playful, purring little girl just waiting to feel safe.
