Athena - female teen kitten
Domestic Long Hair / Mixed (long coat) · Young (10 months) · Female · Medium · Los Altos Hills, CA
Notes from Pink Paws For The Cause
Born December 7, 2025
Athena has been through almost everything challenging a kitty could face early in life. Her name was chosen to reflect her perseverance & strength.
She was rescued from a dangerous living situation at a metal recycling plant with her other siblings, but sadly most did not survive. At just 4wks old she had to learn to fend for herself & was a tough kitty because of it.
At first, Athena was skeptical of humans, and would often dart & hide when approached. With a lot of patience & intentional socialization, aimed at building trust & calmness, Athena’s glowing personality slowly started to emerge.
Athena is an easygoing, fluffy, doll of a cat who is gentle, kind, & mindful. She is calm yet energetic when the right toy is presented. Athena appreciates a selection of the finest brushes for her elegant & radiant coat. She will purr endlessly with each stroke.
Athena prefers a quiet home with at least one other chill kitty where she can have peaceful days lounging by her favorite window or keeping you company on the couch.
She is spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines.
