Meet Opal

Opal was found by a ranger, abandoned with her 2 sisters in the Hawkesbury area. When they came into my care, they were dirty, full of fleas, and malnourished.
Opal was the runt of the litter and she was very underweight, we were quite worried about her survival. As soon as we got her home, we gave her a flea bath, filled up her belly with nutrient-rich kitten formula, and slowly introduced solid food.

She was a little shy at first but it was easy to win over because she loved to be warm and secure and what better way to do that than snuggles.
Now that she and her siblings are safe and warm, we have had the pleasure of watching her grow, learn to trust, and become a healthy, happy, and very playful kitten.

She is gentle but playful, she loves napping up high in the cat tower and chasing her sibling’s tails.
She can be quite the speedy little kitten when she wants to be, sometimes if you try to pick her up when she is in zoomies mode, her body will wiggle and her little legs fly all over the place, It reminds me of a turtle trying to swim away fast.

When she does slow down, she likes to curl up burrito style and has a cute little purr to lull you to sleep along with her, she also likes to give you little kitty kisses on your cheek to show her appreciation and affection.

She loves to play with toys, especially the ball puzzle you can see in her video. Opal and her siblings have a blast running through the cat tunnel, up the cat tower and climbing all over the place during crazy zoom time.
She is a total purr ball, extremely affectionate and loving to humans and her kitten siblings.

Opal has been raised as an indoors only cat, so she will need to go into an indoors only home.
She has been microchipped, vaccinated and treated for fleas/worms and is scheduled to be desexed by early April and she is located in the Penrith area.
