My story

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

Meet Apricot – Your Future Snack Queen & Sunbeam Lounger! ☀️🍑

Apricot just turned one year old, and she’s ready to paw-ty her way into a forever home! This stunning tabico (that’s tabby + calico = extra cute) might start off a little shy in new surroundings, but give her a little time, and you’ll meet the real Apricot: playful, curious, affectionate, and full of purr-sonality.

She’s a certified foodie who never misses a meal—and won’t let you miss one either! Her tiny, squeaky meows are her way of reminding you that snack o’clock is now. Apricot also boasts an impressive purr engine, especially when she’s getting attention or belly rubs (don’t worry, she’ll let you know when it’s time).

When she’s not zooming after toys or catching up on her favorite show (aka Bird TV from the window), she enjoys lounging near her mama, Peach. She’d love to be adopted with Peach, but she’s also confident and independent enough to thrive on her own.

Apricot’s Fun Facts:
🐟 Snack queen status: Mealtime is serious business.
🐾 Loves to play, but she’s also chill and enjoys solo time.
🧶 Her fur? Next-level soft—ideal for cozy petting sessions.
👀 Bird watcher extraordinaire—windows are her favorite hangout.
👻 Can be a little startled by quick movements, so a calm home suits her best.
🐱 Gets along with other cats, but prefers to do her own thing.
🚫 Would do best in a home without young kids due to her shy nature.

Apricot is equal parts sweetheart and sass, with just the right amount of spunk to keep life interesting. All she needs now is a cozy window perch, a stocked food bowl, and a human to adore. Could that be you?

Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home.
