Taqueria is a male Domestic Shorthair and Tabby mixed kitten who was found outside a Mexican restaurant.He is currently being fostered.Per his foster mom:Taqueria is a spunky little fireball who believes every hour is play hour! Whether he's chasing toy mice or zooming through the living room like a little habanero pepper, his energy and playful antics will keep you laughing all day long.​When he’s done cooking up trouble, he turns into a complete lovebug who will love you with every fiber of his tiny soul.Taquerio prefers making his biscuits directly on the side of your head. Then he loves to give your earlobe a tiny suckle while purring like a jet engine. Who needs an alarm clock when you have a purring, ear-nibbling kitten?​Taqueria is as tolerant and easygoing as they come! He has been lovingly raised in a busy foster home and gets along with cats, dogs and kids.I'm described as a 'Love Bug'. Do you seek affection? I do!
