Hi! My name is Apollo and I am just the most loving boy ever! I am still a little shy when it comes to people, but once I’m comfortable with you, you’ll see me sitting next to you all the time! My eyes are different than other cats, but that’s what makes me so unique! I love playing with my toys, friends, eating, and sleeping! I also love to hide in places you’d never guess I was (I just prefer alone time) but I am the best boy you’ll ever have! That’s a little about me and I’d love to get to know you! Here’s to finding the most purrrrrfect home for me!
Apollo needs to be adopted with his brother Asher
Apollo is from TX. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page.
If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
