My name is Pumbaa!

Observant, Gentle, Quiet Charm

Meet Pumbaa, a kitty with the sweetest quiet charm! He loves to observe or play with Shenzi, his fellow cat bestie! While he mainly enjoys keeping to himself during the day, he shows his loving side at night, purring and wanting to have time with you! When he wants love, he will come close, purr softly, and lean in with gentle affection. He loves to sleep beside you at night and shows deep trust in calm moments!

Pumbaa is a beautiful Turkish Van cat with black splotches around his snow-white coat and a solid black tail. His coat is short, and the natural side-part pattern on his head looks like a stylish hairdo! When he lies down, his coat spreads out around him, causing him to look incredibly cute!

Pumbaa does not have any experience with dogs or children, so a meeting should be done cautiously. He gets along with cats and shares a very sweet and supportive bond with Shenzi, a confident and affectionate cat who encourages him and makes him feel at home! Pumbaa and Shenzi must be adopted together. She calls him to meals, grooms him, plays happily with him, and calms him whenever he gets nervous!

Pumbaa would thrive in a calm, patient home that understands cats who warm up more slowly. He would also appreciate a predictable environment with gentle daily routines that will help him continue to flourish! He and Shenzi complement each other wonderfully, and they will add affection and happiness to a home!

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.
