Just like his namesake from The Lion King, Zazu takes his role as a devoted companion very seriously—though instead of royal announcements, he specializes in purrs, snuggles, and excellent morale support.
This handsome brown tabby kitten is wonderfully social and gets along well with other cats and children. He’s been introduced to dogs and, while barking isn’t quite his favorite sound in the Pride Lands, he could adjust with time. Zazu doesn’t mind strangers at all—in true royal-greeter fashion, he’ll come right up to say hello, invite pets, and immediately start purring.
Zazu is extremely affectionate and believes his people are best enjoyed up close. He sleeps in bed with you, stays nearby when he’s not playing, and happily takes on the role of Chief Chest Napper if you work from home. He doesn’t bond to just one member of the pride—Zazu shares his love generously with anyone willing to offer pets.
When it comes to playtime, Zazu truly shines. He loves romping, wrestling, and chasing around with his brothers and sisters and would be happiest in a home with a young, playful feline friend who can keep up with his kitten energy. For Zazu, having another kitty in the pride isn’t just a bonus—it’s a must.
He also has a mischievous side, especially when food is involved. Zazu loooooves milk and cereal and will absolutely attempt a bold “Circle of Life” maneuver straight into your bowl if you’re not careful.
Sweet, snuggly, playful, and full of charm, Zazu would make a wonderful addition to the right kingdom. If he had a job in the Pride Lands, it would definitely be royal video game tester—ensuring playtime meets the highest standards before curling up for a well-earned cuddle. If you’re ready to expand your pride with a loving little lion, Zazu is ready to rule your heart.
