Marlin - 23405 - Kennel 608 - Arrived October 15, 2026, as a stray - Domestic Short Hair mix - orange tabby and white - male - Estimated 10 weeks old - 3 lbs (estimated adult weight 8-10 lbs) - Will be neutered prior to adoption - Up to date on vaccines - FIV/FeLV negative

Marlin is a bright orange tabby kitten with a white chest, white paws, a pink nose, and grey-green eyes beneath a pair of very large ears. In his blue collar, he looks ready for whatever comes next.

Marlin arrived at Cobb Animal Services as a stray on October 15, 2026. We don’t know where he came from, but we know where we hope he’s going. At an estimated 10 weeks old and 3 pounds, he is still tiny, and based on his size and build, we estimate he’ll grow to around 8 to 10 pounds.

He is one of five littermates in kennel 608, along with Nemo, Squirt, Dory, and Coral. Adopting Marlin with one or more of his siblings would be a wonderful way to keep this little family together. It isn’t required, and Marlin would bring joy to any loving home.

Marlin is up to date on vaccines, has tested negative for FIV and FeLV, and will be neutered before he goes home. He has barely started, and the person who brings him home gets to be there for all of it. Come meet Marlin in kennel 608.
