Willow - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Urbandale, Iowa

Meet Willow!

Willow is a precious little brown tabby girl with big, curious eyes, an even bigger heart, and an inspiring story. Born on May 21, 2026, this sweet runt girl has never let life's challenges slow her down.

When Willow was just a newborn outside in the elements, it's believed her umbilical cord became wrapped around one of her tiny front legs, cutting off circulation. Unfortunately, her paw/lower leg was not saved causing her deformation of her front leg. The amazing thing? Willow doesn't know she's any different! She runs, climbs, plays, chases toys, and wrestles with her kitten friends just like any other kitten.

Her deformed leg certainly doesn't define her--but it does make her extra special.

Willow is full of playful kitten energy and loves exploring, chasing toys, and turning everyday moments into adventures. When she's finished playing, she's happiest curled up beside her people, soaking up cuddles and affection.

Raised in a loving foster home, Willow has learned that people are wonderful, laps are made for snuggling, and life is meant to be enjoyed. She gets along well with other cats and we think she'd adapt nicely to a cat-friendly dog with a slow, proper introduction.

If you're looking for a kitten who has already overcome so much yet greets every day with joy, Willow is ready to fill your home with love, laughter, and inspiration.
