My story

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

Meet Puffin! Brave. Playful. Handsome. Professional mischief-maker.

Don’t let his demure photos fool you—Puffin is always ready to play! He’s a confident little black kitten who loves adventures, kitty friends, and keeping an eye on the world… from your shoulders like a tiny parrot! Yes, shoulder-perching is one of his special talents.
Puffin would love a home with a feline buddy to keep him company. In foster care, he gets along great with the resident cats and even a gentle, senior dog—he’s friendly, adaptable, and full of charm.

If you’re looking for a playful sidekick who doubles as a shoulder cat, Puffin is your guy!
