Bellarina's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/><br/>Ooooh man, we have to tell you about the most special girl ever, our little Bellarina<br/><br/>Bellarina is a 5.5month old kitten with the sweetest spirit and the most playful little personality. She loves other cats and spends her days in her foster home chasing wand toys, zooming after her laser, climbing her cat trees, and wrestling with her littermate Raffolino. She is pure joy in motion.<br/><br/>When she is not busy being a tiny entertainer, she loves sitting by the window and watching the world outside. She melts for gentle pets, and if you offer her a Churu treat, she lights up like you just made her whole day. At night she curls up on the bed with her foster parent, settling in like she knows she is safe and loved. She loves to lay on the head pillow or in the nook of your arm.<br/><br/>Bellarina is also special in a way that makes her even more endearing. She is missing half of her right paw, something she already had when we rescued her off the streets at just eight weeks old. It does not slow her down at all. She runs, climbs, plays, and keeps up with every other kitten. It does not cause her pain, though she may limp once in a while, and she does not need any special care for it. It is simply a reminder that the streets are no place for a kitten, and how lucky she is to have been given a second chance.<br/><br/>Now she is ready for her forever home, a place where she can make memories for a lifetime. Because Bellarina is young, playful, and absolutely loves other cats, she must go to a home that already has a friendly cat of similar age or temperament, or she can be adopted with one of her kitten friends (Raffolino would be a perfect match.)<br/><br/>If you can picture Bellarina curled up on your couch, chasing toys across your living room, or greeting you at the window when you come home, we would love to hear from you.<br/><br/>To meet this beautiful and loving girl, please fill out an adoption interest form on our website.
