Sobe, the South Beach kitten

"Don't let my serious look scare you. I'm really friendly"

SOBE (dark calico)
The Socialite, the Bobblehead, the Supermodel


Sobe is named after her home city--South Beach. She was literally plucked from a street curb underneath a car on a busy tourist street in the heart of the Art Deco district. Sobe is seven months old.  She socializes, mingles, and fits into any crowd and easily mingles with other cats, cat-friendly dogs and humans (the socialite).

Her unique trait is the way she stands and looks up at you AND turns her head around like a Bobblehead toy.

Don't be deceived by that serious face.  If anything, she's a supermodel (don't all of them have serious faces?) and knows how to strike a pose! You'll have fun taking photos of her and entering her photos into contests.  If you train her to wear a leash, you can teach her to walk in public without fearing strangers and become a celebrity cat like Lil Bub, Grumpy Cat, etc. Just takes time, patience, and consistency and you can train her in a month!




Sobe sleeps on edge of pet bed to gain Jean Pierre's trust


"I like to snuggle with other kitties"



She loves to play with her foster sister, Daffney, who is 4 weeks older.  It's always better to adopt two cats or kittens than one so they have a playmate for exercise, companionship, comfort, etc. Indoor cats need stimulation and exercise just like any other pet and human for quality of life and better health.
 


Sobe is vaccinated and tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  All vet records are available and yours to keep upon adoption.  The fee is $85. Or adopt both Daffney and Sobe for one adoption fee! Plus you'll also receive a Modkat WHITE litter box.  It's a sleek and stylish litter box for the modern home and prevents litter tracking!



To meet Sobe, please contact riverfrontcats@yahoo.com or call us at 305-771-3163.
