Hi! My name is Burpie and here is a little more about me :
My Journey I was rescued with my mom and siblings after we were found at a park near Fiesta Island. I was originally part of a TNR plan, but it quickly became clear that I was far too friendly and curious about indoor life to be returned outside. Since then, I’ve been discovering how wonderful safety, comfort, and playtime can be.
My Social Life Other cats ? My very best friend is my sister, and I truly thrive with feline companionship. I’m friendly with other cats and would love a home with my sister or another young, playful kitty. Dogs ? I haven’t met dogs yet. Kids ? When it comes to people, I can be cautious at first, but once I feel safe and familiar, my confidence really starts to shine.
My Personality Adventurous, athletic, and thoughtful. I love climbing cat trees and turning everyday objects into games—especially ping-pong balls, which I dribble around like a tiny soccer star. I balance all that energy with a calm, cozy side and enjoy relaxing in my hammock, soaking in the peace of indoor life.
I Enjoy… Fetching and dribbling ping-pong balls Chasing feather wand toys Climbing and exploring vertical spaces Relaxing in my hammock or favorite cozy spots Chewing on appropriate raw animal chew toys
I’m Not a Fan Of… I’m still cautious around unfamiliar people and prefer slow, gentle introductions. A calm, patient approach helps me feel secure and lets my true personality come out.
What Makes Me Special I have an ear tip from my original TNR plan—a little badge of honor from my early days. It turns out I was much too social for life outdoors, and now I’m happily embracing my future as a beloved indoor companion.
My Perfect Home I would thrive in a home with my sister or another playful young kitten where I can stay active, play sports, and continue building confidence. A loving, patient home that appreciates both my adventurous spirit and my quieter, cozy moments would be just right for me.
Young kittens are adopted in pairs or to a home with another playful kitty.
