Pupa - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Uppa has a very important question for his future family: Do you know how to play fetch?

Because he does, and he's pretty proud of it.

This handsome tabby boy isn't your average cat. While most kitties are content chasing a toy around the room, Uppa has taken things a step further and learned how to play fetch with his favorite toy mouse or pom-pom. There's just one catch: the game starts when Uppa says it starts. He's the one who decides when it's time to play, and once he's ready, the fun begins!

Beyond his impressive fetching skills, Uppa is an incredibly sweet, playful boy who genuinely loves being around people. He's happiest when he's part of the family, whether that means playing together, hanging out nearby, or simply enjoying everyone's company.

And when we say Uppa is good with kids, we mean ALL kinds of kids.

Little kids? Yep. Big kids? Absolutely. Quiet, gentle children? Of course. Energetic kids who love to play? He's happy with those too! Uppa has done wonderfully with children of different ages and energy levels, making him a fantastic candidate for a family looking for a feline companion.

Uppa can be a little unsure when meeting someone new, but don't let that fool you. Give him a moment to get comfortable, and he warms up quickly. Once he realizes you're a friend, his sweet, playful personality comes shining through.

Uppa would love a forever home where he can spend plenty of time with his people, enjoy lots of playtime, and occasionally impress everyone with his very serious fetching abilities.

If you've ever wanted a cat with the playful spirit of a puppy, a sweet personality, and a love for family life, Uppa might just be your perfect match.

Just make sure you have a few toy mice and pom-poms ready. He'll let you know when it's time to play.

Currently in a foster home in Chattanooga, TN, and available for transport to a number of locations within the continental United States.
