Grace is an adorable, loving kitten with a gentle and sweet personality. She enjoys playtime, cozy naps, and being close to her people, especially when it means extra cuddles and purrs. Grace is the kind of kitten who will happily curl up with you and make herself right at home.
She is ready to bring lots of love and joy to her forever family.
📌 Health Note: These kittens’ mom was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis), which means they may have been exposed early in life to feline coronavirus (FCoV).
Feline coronavirus is very common, especially in shelters and multi-cat homes, and most cats are exposed at some point. In the vast majority of cats, it causes no illness at all. FIP is not contagious and only develops if the common coronavirus mutates inside an individual cat, which happens in a small percentage (about 5–12%) of exposed cats.
Even with early exposure, most kittens grow up healthy and never develop FIP, including as adults.
For more info, the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine has an excellent overview explaining that most cats encounter feline coronavirus and only a small percentage ever get sick: 🔗 https://www.vet.cornell.edu/departments-centers-and-institutes/cornell-feline-health-center/health-information/feline-health-topics/feline-infectious-peritonitis ***Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet inquiries are not monitored by Elmore SPCA*** **Shelter hours are Monday - Saturday, Noon to 4pm**
