Domestic Cat
Age: Kitten
Sex: Female

�Ϭ Smile: The silver supermodel with a soft heart and a blossoming brave streak. Smile has grown from bottle orphan to elegant teen kitty, and she remains the undeniable supermodel of her foster home. With her luminous silver tabby coat, regal posture, and sky�'��tipped tail, she carries herself like royalty - chest lifted, paws perfectly placed, and quietly observing her world with poised curiosity. She loves a hammock or bowl bed, and she keeps her feline companions guessing with playful ambushes and dramatic pounces. Her kitty housemates don't always appreciate her flair, but she respects boundaries and gets along with them all. Shy at her core, Smile has always chosen her people carefully. But as she matures, her circle of trust is widening. She still adores her primary caregiver (foster mom) - draping herself across her chest for evening TV snuggles - but she now curls up in her foster dad's lap too, and even greets her foster grandfather at the dining table. Where she once fled from unfamiliar movement or prolonged eye contact, she now approaches calmly, sniffing hands and allowing more familiar guests to come within a foot of her without fear. At PetSmart, she has surprised everyone by showing genuine confidence: approaching both humans and dogs with curiosity, friendliness, and a relaxed body. Visitors may still only catch a fleeting glimpse of her at home, but adopters who earn her trust will discover a deeply devoted companion who loves quietly, loyally, and with great intention. Smile is endlessly curious - she watches TV with focus, peers into the toilet to observe the swirling flushable litter *show,* and investigates every new sound or motion with thoughtful interest. Her litterbox habits are impeccable; she even covers her foster mate's unfinished business with a sense of tidy responsibility. Her favorite toys are a flapping, chirping chargeable bird and sparkle pompoms of any size. Like many bottle orphans, Smile once struggled with bite inhibition. Now, she has learned to stop herself. When overstimulated, she gives a clear warning - an open mouth, dilated pupils, a poised *I need space* signal - and if she does make contact, it's a gentle, glancing touch rather than a true bite. It's communication, not aggression, and she's become remarkably skilled at managing her own intensity. Smile thrives in a cat�'��savvy, patient home that appreciates a cat with regal poise, playful mischief, and a heart that reveals itself slowly but deeply. She may remain a bit of a legend to infrequent visitors, but to her chosen people, she is breathtakingly beautiful - inside and out. ���� For the adopter who understands that trust is earned, Smile will be a once�'��in�'��a�'��lifetime companion.
