Skittles - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Richmond, Virginia

Meet Skittles, a resilient little survivor with a heart full of love. Born outside, his mom kept him safe by hiding him in a street sewer until he was rescued. Despite missing a back leg, Skittles doesn't let anything slow him down-he plays, explores, and lives life as if he's always had three legs.

Now in foster care, he's quickly learning just how wonderful it is to be loved. His favorite things include feather toys, tasty, canned food, and spending time with the people he trusts. As he continues to gain confidence, his sweet personality shines a little brighter every day.

Skittles would thrive in a quiet home where he can blossom at his own pace. With patience, love, and plenty of playtime, he'll reward his adopter with a lifetime of companionship. If you're looking for a truly special cat with an inspiring spirit, Skittles is ready to steal your heart.
