DOB 4/29/26
Hey there, everyone! Named for being itsy-bitsy with a sleek, shiny black coat, I’m Ant, an affectionate, cuddly, and playful Bombay mix fella who enjoys curling up beside Foster Meowmy for naps and rewards her gentle pets with loud, happy purrs. As the runt of my litter, I’m still building my confidence, but I’ve come a long way since I first arrived in my foster home. Foster Mom knew that it would take time and patience for me to learn to trust her. With her gentle voice and affectionate touch, she showed me that I was securely loved, and --voilà! -- now my sweet personality is shining through!
You see, I had a rough start in life. My feral momma birthed my siblings, Ladybug and Caterpillar, and me in the patio closet of a vacant apartment where Foster Meowmy feeds a colony of community cats. When we were just five weeks old, she trapped Momma and brought our little family to the safe haven of her home. Once we were weaned and eating on our own, Momma was spayed and returned to her outdoor home. This ensures that she will never raise another litter in the summer heat.
At first I felt very tiny and vulnerable in my new indoor domain, but Foster Meowmy endeared herself by teasing me with string toys and rewarding me with Churus treats! I’ve been raised with young children (ages 5 and 7), other cats, and a small senior dog, and I’ve done well with everyone. The dog never bothered me at all! Of course, I have a blast with Ladybug and Caterpillar, a.k.a. the #kloset-kittens, as we tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, and then collapse in a kitten puddle when we’re exhausted.
Now I’m ready to share my gentle, loving disposition, playful spirit, and “purr-full” cuddling expertise with my forever family – including well-behaved dogs, cats, and kids. Just keep in mind that in my new domain I may need your gentle patience by allowing me to settle in at my own pace. With time, I’m sure to blossom into my best self – Bombay cats are renown for being Velcro cats who stick close to their hoomans. Although we’re available separately, it’d be the cat’s meow if you’d adopt me with another #kloset-kitten so we can be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation. Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart!
