With Backwoods Barbie, you can certainly expect a kitten who will like to play hard, nap hard and show you lots of love. As she grows, you will discover countless things to love about her!

Kittens have a lot of social needs, so consider bringing her into a family as a playmate for your current cat, adopting her with a littermate, or even consider bringing another kitten or cat home in the future!
