Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Curious, Friendly, Energetic
Despite what his name suggests, Bad Cat Brains will bring nothing but good into his future forever home. Bad Cat Brains is a handsome boy looking for a home where he can play all day. He loves to chase feathers, and mice filled with catnip, or will just spend his energy doing zoomies around the halls!
When he's done playing, Bad Cat Brains wants to be around his humans. He'll climb into anyone's lap, and even does well with children! You can tell how much he enjoys your company by his constant purrs.
One true way to Bad Cat Brains' heart is through his stomach. His favorite thing in the whole world is a Churu. As soon as he hears the Churu packaging crinkle, he comes running to claim his treat! He'll stand on his hind legs and wrap his front two legs around the your hands, just to make sure that Churu isn't going anywhere.
Tied for his favorite thing is his brother, Cat Flag. They spend most of their time together, whether it's running around chasing each other or curling up in a tiny box together. But their favorite thing to do is wrestle together, all in good fun of course!
One funny thing these brothers do is take small items around the house (a kid toy, for example) and stash them away as their own. One time a missing shoe was found in the corner of their room!
When Cat Flag is in a room by himself, he will mew for his brother and Bad Cat Brains will coming running to check on him. It's so sweet! These boys are bonded and would be lost without each other, so they must be adopted together. For more information on Cat Flag, you can take a look at his profile: https://tinyurl.com/yc6dck2y.
They would do well in a home with adults, kids, and each other! Contact us today to meet them - thank you for keeping them together!
Bad Cat Brains has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter lifespan. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. Bad Cat Brains can only live with other FeLV+ cats, but dogs and other animals are just fine! Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care.
All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed, or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
