Optimistic Octopus 15 - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Fearless, Adventurous, Playful

Meet this tiny tornado of fun!

Optimistic Octopus is a sweet girl bursting with personality. She's friendly, fearless, and always ready for her next adventure. Whether she's pouncing on feather wands or inventing games of her own, she's happiest when she's playing. Once she's finally worn herself out, she'll curl up beside you with one of the loudest purrs you'll ever hear.

She's a litter box champ, has loads of confidence, and has been raised around a dog, so she's comfortable sharing her home with a nice canine friend. Because she's such a high-energy kitten, she'd likely best thrive in a home with another playful young cat who can keep up with her and help burn off all that kitten energy!

Like many kittens, Optimistic Octopus plays enthusiastically and is learning that hands aren't toys. She can get a little vigorous during playtime, so she'll do best with someone who can redirect her to toys and continue teaching her good kitten manners. Having a cat buddy would also teach her "how to cat."

Optimistic Octopus has an exquisite black and white tuxedo with a white heart on her belly, a little mustache, and a pink nose with one black nostril! If you're looking for a hilarious, affectionate, adventurous little sidekick who will keep you smiling - and your toy basket empty - this girl is ready to steal your heart!
