My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Energetic, Outgoing, Curious

It's almost spooky how cute Spooky Cute is! He's an energetic, absolutely joyful young cat who loves to run, play, and climb. He has such great fun wrestling with his fellow foster kitties, and he does so politely without using his claws. His favorite toy is his jellyfish stuffie. He also plays nicely with his foster's 6-year-old child.

Once he has tired himself out from playing, he will happily lie in your arms calmly and quietly, just being content and gentle. He also loves belly rubs and snuggling with his kitty buddies.

Spooky loves to chat with his people, other cats, toys, and even his food! His tiny little voice will make you laugh. This confident boy doesn't know the meaning of the word "shy" and will be your bestie from day 1!

Spooky has some ongoing tummy issues for which he takes meds in his food twice a day. Belly massages also help, and he is always happy to get those! His foster says that this issue just isn't that big a deal for her to handle.

Spooky Cute 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 life-span. 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. He 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.
