Blaze - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Columbia, Missouri

Hi, I'm Blaze! I'm a curious and affectionate kitten with a playful and feisty personality. I came to CMHS after being pulled out of someone's car engine (I got pretty scared and may have gotten my teeth involved). While I was initially very unsure of people, I have finally decided that I want to be friends. I enjoy being pet all over and getting little scritches. I'm not thrilled about being picked up, though. I enjoy playing with interactive wand toys, catnip kickers, and jingly balls. I also enjoy supervising my humans and keeping an eye on things going on outside the window. I'll likely need a little more help adjusting to a new home than your average kitten, but I've got a lot of love and entertainment to bring to your home!

My foster says " Blaze enjoys play that includes chasing small toys that roll or can be be caught (with paws and teeth). Sits for petting and can be gently held for cuddles. Purrs loudly! Offers kisses. Uses litter box consistently. May still want to play with hands as a way to play with humans, but could scratch. Easily spooked by sudden noises outside (e.g., trucks driving by and fridge/dishwasher). Quiet meows. Checks in on human regularly."
