Sal is a sweet, affectionate little kitty with a wonderfully peaceful personality and a talent for making himself right at home. From the very beginning of his foster stay, Sal has been comfortable, confident, and eager to be part of the family.

He’s a true little shadow who loves being with his people and will happily follow you from room to room. If you happen to sit down and have some time for pets or play, Sal will be right there, making himself available for some quality attention. He’s also an enthusiastic purrer, and there’s something incredibly calming about having this happy little kitten nearby.

Sal loves to play! He enjoys wrestling with his sister and the other kittens, interactive games with his people, and even entertaining himself with smaller toys when nobody is available to play. He’s got a particularly adorable quirk when he wrestles—he makes a little play growl that sounds far more serious than it actually is. Once his foster realized this was simply Sal’s personal wrestling soundtrack, it became one of his most endearing habits.

When he’s not playing or following his people around, Sal is perfectly happy to curl up for a nap. He has a lovely balance of playful kitten energy and peaceful downtime.

Sal is also wonderfully social. He confidently met new kittens, cats, and his foster family’s dog without hesitation. He wasn’t shy with his foster family from the moment he arrived, and he has continued to show what a friendly, adaptable boy he is. The only thing that’s given him a moment of pause so far was a hair dryer—understandably, that thing is pretty suspicious!

His home skills are excellent, too. Sal is 100% litter box trained and has never had an accident.

Affectionate, playful, intelligent, gentle, and full of purrs, Sal has been an absolute delight from day one. He’s the kind of kitten who can keep you entertained with a wrestling match one minute and then peacefully curl up beside you the next. He’d make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a happy, social little kitten to share life with.

Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
