Hi!  I'm Zoe!  My siblings and I were brought into the shelter when we were only a few days old; our eyes were still closed.  There were 8 of us and we needed round-the-clock bottle feeding, so the shelter split us up into 2 groups, and gave us to our foster parents to care for.  My group was given names that started with the letter Z, the other group were given names that started with Purr. We're all purr monsters, and love to be held, and purr as soon as we're touched.

I'm a lovely slim, trim female, possibly with some Siamese in my background (but without the Siamese yowl). I'm currently rooming with my brother Ziggy and buddies Ponzi and Phil.  I'm very intelligent, and prefer to observe a situtation before jumping in -- unlike those silly boy kittens.  I like to be held and smooched, and even put my nose to yours so that you can more easily kiss me!  My foster mom thinks I'm the nicest kitten she's ever had!

Did you know black cats have a hard time getting adopted?  At shelters, we're he last ones adopted and the first ones put to sleep.  I guess people just don't see the beauty in our color.  But the Fat Cat people believe God made us special: smarter, with lots of personality and sweetness, so that we can work our charms and find our forever homes.

The shelter had this to say about me:

Hello, my name is Zoe.  I am very outgoing and come running to see what is happening. I'm a kitty that purrs right away.  I love to be picked up and will snuggle for a while.  After that I have to see what else I can explore and discover. 

Won't you take me home?
