Lainety is a dark tortie beauty with the cutest butter-colored splotch on her lip (and a matching one on her paw for extra style points). She’s a soft-spoken, sweet little lady who blooms with patience, love, and the right feline friend.
Lainety is a thoughtful observer. When there’s something new at the kittery, she likes to watch her furfriends test the waters first before bravely joining in herself. Once she feels safe, her playful side shines—she adores tunnels, hidey huts, and hammocks where she can sneak, pounce, and then curl up for a cozy nap.
When she wants affection, Lainety has a signature move: arching her back and weaving in a figure-8 at your feet while revving up her rumbly purr (so loud you can hear it across the room!). She’s not a big fan of being picked up or sudden loud noises, but she will absolutely thrive in a patient home that understands her gentle spirit.
While not bonded, Lainety draws confidence from other kittens in the kittery and would benefit from having a feline friend in her new home.
She’s currently enjoying Fancy Feast Kitten Pâté, Gravy Lovers, and Purina One Kitten dry food.
Lainety may start off shy, but once she trusts you, she will reward your patience with endless love, silly antics, and the quiet joy of her tortie charm. She’s the perfect kitten for someone who appreciates a tender soul and the magic of watching a shy kitty blossom.
✨ Adopt Lainety, and let this gentle sweetheart bring warmth, purrs, and soft adventure into your life.

More about this rescue
🐾 Our Mission at Billy the Kidden Rescue 🐾
Billy the Kidden Rescue is a VDACS-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, founded in 2014 and supported by a network of over 60 active foster homes across Hampton Roads.
Our mission is to improve the lives of displaced cats and reduce the feral cat population in our community by socializing outdoor-born and feral kittens—transforming them into loving, adoptable pets and placing them in safe, forever homes.
💙 Our Heart is in TNR
We are proud advocates of TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return)—the humane, effective method of managing community cats. Through this program, feral cats are:
✔️ Trapped
✔️ Neutered or Spayed
✔️ Vaccinated
✔️ Ear-Tipped (as a universal sign they've been fixed)
✔️ Returned to live safely in their outdoor colonies without contributing to overpopulation.
We are actively working to promote legal and social acceptance of TNR in Hampton Roads.
🐱 Feral Kitten Socialization
Our feral kitten socialization program is one of a kind—with a 90% success rate in helping feral-born kittens become affectionate, in-home pets. Through experienced fostering, patience, and love, these kittens learn to trust, play, and thrive indoors.
💪 Get Involved!
We’re always looking for passionate animal lovers to join our team. Help us make a difference by becoming a:
Foster
Volunteer
Transporter
TNR Trapper
🎁 Support Our Work
Donations keep our rescue running, and we’re always in need of supplies! Check out our wish lists to see what’s needed most:
