Aretha Franklin - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Say hello to Aretha Franklin, a beautiful tuxedo lady with a heart as big as her namesake's voice! This friendly girl has just weaned her last litter of kittens, and now it's finally her turn to be the star of the show.

Aretha has spent the past few months as a devoted mama, but she's ready to trade in motherhood duties for a life filled with love, cozy naps, tasty treats, and plenty of affection from her very own forever family.

With her classic black-and-white tuxedo coat and relaxed, friendly, and curious personality, Aretha is dressed to impress and ready to steal your heart. She would love a home where she can feel safe, cherished, and appreciated for the wonderful cat she is.

Her days of raising babies are behind her, and she is ready to be your beloved companion. She will keep you company, sit on your lap, beg for Churu treats, lounge nearby, and brighten your day with her presence. Aretha is ready to bring a little heart and soul into your home.

Aretha's dream home: A loving family where she can be the baby and receive all the attention she deserves! With a patient introduction, she could live with another cat. Dogs and children are unknown, but she's likely fine in a home with a respectful dog and children aged 5+.

If you're ready to open your heart to a sweet mama who's more than earned her happily-ever-after, Aretha Franklin is waiting for you.

All she needs is love, love, love!

Could Aretha be the queen of your castle? Adopt this lovely lady and let her sing her way into your heart!
