Introducing Kayla, the adorable kitten with a face that can soften even the coldest heart. Kayla was born with a congenital facial abnormality that gives her a squishy, grumpy expression. When Odelkis Barrera, founder of TO Rescue The Ontario Rescue, saw a photo of Kayla’s unique face, she knew she had to help the little kitten.
In July, someone discovered Kaya outdoors and reached out to TO Rescue for help. The kitten was only 4 weeks old and had ticks, fleas, dehydration, and malnutrition. With the care of Barrera and Kaya’s foster parents, the skinny little kitten gradually gained weight and her wonderful personality began to emerge. According to TO Rescue’s Facebook post, she is lively and outgoing, extremely intelligent, and solely desires human contact and holding.
Despite facing many challenges in her short life, the unique kitten remains incredibly affectionate and playful. According to the rescuer who took her in, she is not only the cutest kitty ever, but she also has an amazing personality. Everyone who meets her falls in love with her. She gets along great with her foster families, other cats, and dogs. All she wants is to be petted, loved, and cared for. She can never get enough attention, so if you’re not petting her, she’s probably busy petting herself against you.
When Kayla is not snuggling with her foster parents, she spends a lot of time playing with her favorite toy, a cardboard box. According to the rescue, she definitely keeps herself busy! Now, at 5 and a half months old, the only thing Kayla wants is to find a loving forever home. But as of last week, she hadn’t received a single adoption application. Kayla recently had surgery to help her see better and relieve some discomfort in her eyes. While her eyesight isn’t the best, she’s learned how to get around easily, and can always spot when there’s another dog, cat, or human nearby, ready to be her playmate.
The rescue team cannot understand why anyone would reject the opportunity to welcome this adorable and unique tabby into their home. According to Barrera, “We want a wonderful atmosphere and a household that could devote the time she requires.” She enjoys playing with other dogs and cats and gets along well with other animals. She also wants someone who is committed to the long run.
Although Kaya is eager to find a loving forever home, she acknowledges that she’s a pretty cool cat – even if it’s taking the rest of the world a little longer to realize.
