LAKEPORT, Calif. – In celebration of the Olympics, featured today is an athletic young cat needing a home.

This 4-month-old female domestic long hair mix kitten is waiting for a new at Lake County Animal Care and Control.

The green-eyed girl – who is not yet spayed – was enjoying some time playing with her ball when she was caught on video. Her ball handling skills are impressive – watch how she picks the ball up with one paw.

If you’re looking for an energetic and athletic new friend, visit her in cat room kennel No. 53, ID No. 33249.
