Meet Madison!

Update (10/8/25) from Madison's foster family:

Madison has become such a little cuddle bug! After 4 weeks in my care, she is my tiny shadow, following me everywhere and making the tiniest little squeaks whenever she wants attention or pets or food. She regularly joins me at my desk and will often sit on my lap for hours while I work. Even though she initially wasn't the most affectionate kitten, it's clear she LOVES love but just has to get to know you first. She's even warming up to new people and will now approach friends and family who visit me with curiosity (especially if they have a treat in hand). She's one of few cats I've met who actually seems to enjoy belly rubs (no, really!) and will regularly put her belly on full display to encourage the tummy scratches. She still loves to chase anything that moves so wand toys are a must with Madison, and while she did great with her foster brother Zeke, I think she'd thrive either with a buddy or solo. I absolutely adore her and know she will make someone's best friend and tiny partner in crime one day!!

Update (9/16/25) from Madison's foster family:

"Madison is such a darling and playful little kitten. While generally more on the reserved/independent side, she has certainly opened up after a few days of needing space and now always wants to know where the action is and what's going on. If you need her attention, reach for the toys instead of the treats, as she's much more interested in playing, with wand toys (or really anything that moves) being her favorite option. After a few days of letting her come to me and experience the new space as her own kitten, she began seeking out attention and now loves to be pet and cuddled (still on her terms of course)! She has the tiniest, most fragile little "meow" I've ever heard, and every time I hear it, I melt. Now that she's comfortable with me and being touched, she wants nothing more than to be on my laptop, on the book I'm reading, or really on top of whatever else might have my attention at any given moment. She sleeps right next to me all night and is the gentlest, quietest, most adorable kitty on Earth. Anyone who wins her over will have earned a tiny companion for life, and she is so worth the few days of giving her the space she needs to feel safe with a new person. She is completely potty trained, never makes a mess, and is the sweetest little thing! I’m excited to see how she continues to open up as more time passes."

Original Rescue Story:

Little Maddie has always been petite, always the smallest of her litter. Her litter consisted of 3 siblings. 2 males Vincent and Clay and Aurore sister. The litter of 4 was rescued from inside a car that was just stored in a drive way and a stray cat had a litter. When the cat owners contacted us for help to get the kittens we realized they were about 5 weeks old and terrible upper respitatory infection otherwise in great condition. Maddie has always been a pound behind and now that she is older and healthy  she continue to be a pound behind making her a petite kitty compared to siblings. She is very silky smooth and grew up at casa de ARWOB from her rescue date in early May until early September. She grew up with her siblings and other foster kittens and cats. She is dog savvy and will be friends with cat friendly gentle dogs, if the dog is too much she will seek higher ground. She has always been a great gentle sweet girl. She will hide from strangers and it does take her time to warm up. She is NOT going to be the most affectionate and social butterfly ei carrier around or being petted but she does seek human companionship and she enjoys being petted with her purr motor recognizing and appreciating the love. She loves all kinds of toys especially wand feathered toys. As of early September she has gone into a new foster along with her foster brother Zeke an adorable orange buff taby. 

All kittens have been tested and felv/fiv negative.
