Tabby Cats Available for Adoption in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Meet Mercury, a cute patch tabby kitten who along with many other cats were trapped at a trailer park and are now ready for adoption.

Mercury is a little shy at the moment. Every day we can see him getting braver. He likes the security of a cubby but has been seen out and exploring his room. Mercury likes pets when given with a slow, gentle approach. Mercury just needs a little more time to acclimate so a patient adopter is a must. Because he is a kitten, now is a great time to make a difference with him by pets, play, and wet food. He loves his wet food.

Mercury would do best with a single adopter, a couple, or family with older respectful children.

We believe that kittens are happiest when they have another kitty to play with so Mercury will need to be adopted with another kitten here or already have a young playful cat at home.

For the safety of our kittens and for children, we do not adopt kittens under six months old to a home with children under the age of 6.

Mercury has been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Mercury's approximate birthdate is 11/02/2025. His adoption fee is $120.

If you are interested in meeting Mercury or any of the cats at Second Chance Cats of West Michigan, please go to sccatswm.org/adopt to fill out an application, or stop in during open hours on Fridays from 11-2 or Saturdays and Sundays from 11-4.

Please note - we can only adopt to those who live within a one hour drive of Grand Rapids.

Thank you!
