Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Loverboy, Purr-tastic, Entertaining

If Basalt could place a personal ad it would say "Extra adorable kitten seeks cuddles!" This tabby cutie is so-o-o-o affectionate and is an absolute purr machine. When he lays on your chest it will practically vibrate from his loud purrrrs!

Basalt has a hilarious way of throwing himself down on his left side when he is feeling especially happy. Such a funny boy! He adores all humans, including teenagers and young children. He has also made friends with the 11-month-old cats in his foster home. This sweet snuggle baby would be a wonderful fit in most any household!
