My story

Location: Frederick, MD Emerald is a gem of a kitten—beautiful, affectionate, and full of charm—ready to sparkle in her forever home. About Emerald: Stunning in soft blue-grey fur with tiny white accents, Emerald is just as lovely inside as she is out. She’s an affectionate and friendly kitten who loves human attention—whether it's cuddle time, sweet talk, or snack time, she’s all in. Emerald adapts quickly to new people and is motivated by both food and praise (a rare combo that makes training a breeze). With moderate energy, she enjoys playtime with her siblings, chasing toys, and climbing to explore her surroundings. When things quiet down, she settles into nap time like a pro. Personality: - Friendly and affectionate - Curious and a bit of a climber - Calm sleeper when things settle - Confident with new people - Playful with siblings and toys - Smart and praise-responsive Energy Level: Moderate—playful and curious with peaceful rest in between. Companionship: Emerald thrives on human connection and would do well in a home that provides love, attention, and gentle guidance. She’s social and would enjoy a playful companion—feline or human! Love and Affection: A true snuggler when the time is right, Emerald gives just as much love as she receives. She’ll be your shadow and your snuggle buddy. Perfect Home Preparation Your home should be equipped with: - Litter and litter box - Soft bedding and cozy hideaways - Cat carrier for gentle travel - High-quality food (wet and dry) - Food and water bowls - A slicker brush (she’ll love it) - Toys and vertical climbing spaces - Scheduled vet appointment within first two weeks 

Included Veterinary Care:
 - Microchipped
 - Flea/Tick Preventative
 - Dewormer - FVRCP Vaccine 

Spay/neuter at one of our partner veterinarians is included in the adoption fee. Our partner veterinarians are located in Ashland, VA; Fredericksburg, VA; Mechanicsville, VA; Harrisonburg, VA; Manassas, VA; Davidsonville, MD; Waldorf, MD; Columbia, MD; Grasonville, MD; and Jonestown, PA (Cats only)

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Emerald *Adoption Pending*, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
