Franklin - Siamese and Domestic Short Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Plainfield, Illinois

Franklin is what happens when the Siamese gene clearly tried to RSVP "yes" but showed up to the wrong party. His brother Seymour, and his sister Kokomo, got the creamy colored coat and blue-eyed vibe, while Franklin and his other brother Griffith ended up as a sleek black domestic shorthair kittens who are absolutely not bitter about it (okay, maybe just a little).

These cuties were estimated to be born on 03/23/26. Franklin is a shy-but-sweet youngster who is still figuring out that indoor life comes with things like soft beds, regular meals, and the shocking realization that humans are actually just big, slightly awkward cat servants. He's learning to trust the world at his own pace and is looking for a patient adopter who understands that confidence is built, not downloaded. Once he warms up, Franklin reveals his playful side-especially when wand toys are involved or when he's tumbling around with his siblings like he's training for the Olympic Games in Chaotic Kitten Acrobatics.

Because he thrives with feline companionship, Franklin must go to a home with another young, playful cat who can show him the ropes and co-sign his increasingly bold life choices. We also think having a confident kitty by his side will help him continue to blossom up on the social scale - so it's a win win!
