Hi, my name is Emmie. I might look like a boring tabby but I’m far from boring. I’m long, lean & sleek. For a kitty, I give the best Puppy Eyes!  I love to give nose kisses and lounge across your shoulders. My foster mom hates to exercise so I made a deal with her. I told her I’d run on the wheel for her.  I’m finding my voice more each day. I love being held and cuddled. I can be shy initially but once I warm up, look out.  I love my sister, Elenor. She is more confident in my presence.
Emmie is bonded with her sister Elenor, and they must be adopted together.  Please click here to learn more about Elenor!  

These two were very sad when they were separated from their mama but with time have already started warming up. They both just need a little time to adjust to change.  They're shy, but very curious!  And they like to tell you all about their day with their cute little voices.

Will you consider sharing your home with these two kitties?

Emmie is from stray litter of 5 kittens and mama. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

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.
