🐾 MEET NUBBINS! 🐾Don't let her disheveled appearance fool you—Nubbins may not care much about vanity, but she is an absolute sweetheart underneath that adorably messy exterior! 😸💕Nubbins is a 13-week-old female Manx mix kitten who has spent most of her young life in foster care. She was the sole survivor of her litter, making her journey to this point a little more special. Now, this resilient little girl is ready to find a family of her very own. ❤️And the best part? Nubbins can go home TODAY! 🏡🐾She has not been spayed yet, but her adopter can take her home now and will receive a future surgery appointment. Her adopter will simply need to bring her back to the shelter for her scheduled spay.Nubbins may look like she just rolled out of bed and decided, “This is good enough,” but she has no problem winning hearts just the way she is. 🥰 She is sweet, lovable, and ready for someone who appreciates a kitten with a little less concern for looking picture-perfect!If you're ready to give this special little survivor the happily ever after she deserves, come meet Nubbins! 🐱💕🐾 ADOPTION INFORMATION 🐾Thinking about adding a new furry family member?
