Emmett

Description

Meet Emmett! Emmett is a 8-week-old male short-haired kitten who had a pretty scary start to life. He was originally found outside by a family who took them in but quickly realized they were not prepared to take on the care of a kitten. Wanting him to have the best chance at finding safe, loving homes, they surrendered him to Rockwall Adoptions. Emmett came to us frightened and under-socialized, but he is making progress. He is now tolerant of being handled and is slowly becoming more comfortable with human interaction. He is still shy and a little scared, and He is not showing affection just yet, but every small step is helping him learn that people can be safe and kind. What Emmett needs most is someone patient and gentle who understands that he simply needs time, consistency, and positive experiences to build trust and learn that he is finally safe. With regular handling, reassurance, and daily socialization, Emmett has the opportunity to continue gaining confidence and becoming more comfortable with the people around him. He may not be the kitten who immediately runs into your arms, but he is the kind of kitten who needs someone willing to earn his trust and show him what it feels like to be safe and loved. Emmett's spay surgery is scheduled for Wednesday, September 30, 2026. This date is non-negotiable. An approved online adoption application is required before meeting Emmett and before adoption. Emmett's adoption fee is $75, which includes his neuter surgery, microchip, rabies vaccination, and boosters to date. Apply online at: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/
