My story

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

Meet Dumpling!
Dumpling is a charming little guy whose mom is Mushu—and he’s got all his mama’s sweetness. From the moment you pick him up, he starts to purr: this boy has an “instant purr” that sounds like a little engine of joy. He absolutely loves to be held and cuddled in your arms, and he’ll nuzzle in close just to feel safe and cozy.
He’s also a curious and talkative kitten — he’ll chime in with little mews to let you know what he’s thinking. Dumpling is still figuring out how wand toys work. He’ll bat at them carefully, trying to understand: “Is this for chasing? Or just swatting?” It’s adorable to watch him learn.
One of his quirkiest (and most endearing) habits: he loves making muffins (kneading) on his brother.
