Selene - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Scottsdale, Arizona

Selene is a beautiful little moon beam of a kitten. She's an exquisite female dilute tortoiseshell kitten with soft, uniquely blended markings and a sweet, gentle personality.

Born in May 2026, Selene came to the shelter with her mother and two siblings, Helios and Eros. Their mother gave birth to them on the doormat of an apartment, and a kind girl welcomed the little family inside to keep them safe and provide the care they needed.

Unlike her boisterous littermate, Helios, Selene is sweet, calm, and a little shy at first. Once she feels comfortable, she blossoms into a loving companion. When you pet her, she may roll over happily to enjoy the attention—a charming way of showing how much she appreciates affection. Selene also enjoys gentle, soft play and would love a peaceful home where she can continue building confidence at her own pace.

With her beautiful markings and tender nature, Selene would make a lovely addition to a patient and loving forever family. Just promise you'll love her to the moon and beyond.
