Meet CAPTAIN JACK! This adorable tabby guy is the kind of kitten who steals hearts wherever he goes. He is a super sweet, laid-back little guy that has the perfect balance of playful fun and cozy cuddles. He loves to play and chase toys like any kitten, but his favorite place might just be melting into your arms for a cuddle. CAPTAIN JACK is incredibly gentle, chill, and affectionate, making him the perfect companion for a calm and loving home. CAPTAIN JACK would do best in a home with another playful kitty friend or he can be adopted with his brother, WILFRED (who can be seen here in the photos and on his own ad), or another kitty in our cottage. He is already neutered, up to date on vaccines, and litter box trained. He has tested negative for FIV and FelV. eDOB 10/2/2025
