A Beautiful "Jewel" Named Sapphire Is Looking For Her Furever Home

Looking for a darling "jewel" of a companion? Then, look no further. This wonderful kitty is the answer to your prayer!

Meet this precious jewel of a young lady named "Sapphire"! She is a black and white Tuxedo-mix, medium hair beauty who is 13 months old and weighs 8 pounds.

This gorgeous kitty is spayed, completely litterbox-trained, is microchipped and is up-to-date on all her vetting and shots. "Sapphy" is ready to find her furever home and family through Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

Sweet Sapphy, as her foster family calls her, is good with humans, cats and adolescents. She has a habit of sometimes nipping her humans when she's being extremely affectionate. It isn't aggression or attacking, she just loves to give "love nips" as her foster mom calls it because she's so happy.

Sapphire and her sister, Mercedes, were found as strays and rescued by Angels Among Us at the age of 5 months. There were extremely timed at first but due to the love and patience of their fosters, have become very well socialized and wonderful companions.

This fluffy girl loves to play with her toys and literally carries them around the house with her. She is what we term "adorably quirky" and totally loves chasing laser pointers! When not chasing around and playing, Sapphire also loves to stop, rest and take those wonderful moments bathing herself in the sunlight. She's not a bit "meow-er", chosing instead to be totally adorable with her trills and squeaks as she communicates with her humans and other fosters.

Ideally, Angels would love to see Sapphire and her sister, Mercedes, adopted together, but as long as Sapphire has another cat to keep her company and play with her, she would be happy. Sapphy also would love a home that isn't extremely loud and boisterous with lots of smaller children. She would also appreciate having a family who didn't require her to be a lap cat but rather, a family who would enjoy having some "mutual admiration" time and would also be understanding if she got a bit too excited and carried away in her loving of them that resulted in a "love nip".
