Shrimp - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Meet Shrimp!

Shrimp lives up to her name as the smallest amongst her sisters, but don't let her size fool you - she can take any of them in a kitten battle. She is a female tortoiseshell with mostly black hair and beautiful pops of color. Shrimp is quick to investigate new spaces and things and can often be seen sitting on her haunches to inspect her toys. She also finds the best hiding spots for her naps.
Shrimp was brought to ACCT as a stray with her four sisters on July 9 and has spent the past few weeks growing, learning, and playing in a busy home with kids and dogs. She is still young, but is ready to find her forever home and start bonding with her humans.
