• KCAC’s Adorable, Adoptable Pet of the Week is written by Tecla Metzel of Kane County Animal Control.

Ahh, Fridays! The last work day before Saturday, the bridge to a weekend, a promise of me-time shared with friends, family … and possibly a kitten. Wait, what?

OK, maybe it’s a stretch, but KCAC’s 8-month-old tri-colored kitten named Friday lives her life as though every day is the beginning of a weekend. Found as a stray, she has the face of an innocent, dainty little kitten princess that’s just looking for the right family to adopt her.

The word sweet doesn’t even describe how wonderful this talkative, energetic little feline is. Curiosity could be her middle name because she enjoys exploring new and unfamiliar territory. Running down hallways, climbing into small cubbyholes, jumping onto desks and ledges makes for a full day of play. And if some cat toys with catnip are thrown into the play-mix, all the better!

At the end of a day, Friday loves to be held, cuddled and assured she’s the best kitten ever no matter what day of the week it is. Are you willing to bring a little Friday into your life?
