My story

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

Calm, Affectionate, Biscuit Maker

Pigeon probably gets her name from her gorgeous gray coloring - but she’s much more unique than any old bird if she does say so herself! Pigeon is as sweet as she is pretty, and she’s super easygoing. She’s more lowkey than she is playful, and has a quiet, calm demeanor about her.

Pigeon isn’t a chatty girl, but she still likes to give you the occasional meow to say hi! She enjoys being close to her fosters, especially since she loves to make biscuits on them. Pigeon hasn’t shown to be much of a snuggler yet, but maybe she’s just waiting for the perfect person to cuddle up with - maybe it’s you!

Pigeon doesn’t need tons of playtime, and while the catnip toys don’t interest her, she does like the toys with strings on them she can bat at. She hasn't met any other cats, dogs, or kids in foster, so she’ll need slow introductions to any other pets at her forever home. Pigeon would make the perfect kitty companion for anyone looking for an easygoing couch or work from home buddy!

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.
