It’s raining kittens at Kane County Animal Control!

The KCAC shelter staff aptly named one of those kittens Storm due to the incredibly wet spring our area has been experiencing.

Storm came to KCAC as a stray when she was 3 weeks old along with her two siblings, Rain and River. All three are 9 weeks old now, and as they move around the shelter exploring their surroundings, it’s easy to see their personalities becoming more and more defined.

Out of the three of them, Storm appears to have more of an adventurous streak. She often finds herself running down the slippery hallway, popping out from between two file cabinets and then jumping in front of her brother or sister. If she gets too turned around and lost, she meows until someone comes to find her.

She also enjoys just talking to you for absolutely no reason and will keep up her part of the one-sided conversation for quite a while.

Storm has a heart murmur, which the shelter staff believes she’ll outgrow. Only time will tell, of course, which is why it’s important that Storm’s forever family is patient and willing to give her plenty of time to adjust to her new surroundings.
