Atari is a beautiful young diluted calico who has already proven herself to be an absolute sweetheart. She's not even a year old herself, but this little mama is busy raising her kittens. Soon, she will be ready for a life where she gets to be the one spoiled!
From the moment Atari arrived in foster care, she's been an affectionate little Queen. All she really wants to do is purr, make biscuits, and spend time with her people. She'll rub against you or give you the sweetest little beeps when she's ready for attention, and she has even learned to appreciate head kisses. She was happy to let her foster handle her paws and trim all of her nails on her very first day-a pretty impressive introduction!
Atari is currently enjoying plenty of food and rest as she recovers from nursing her kittens. She's very friendly and loves attention, although she may be a little more cautious while she's adjusting to life after motherhood. Give her some love and a comfortable place to relax, and she's perfectly content.
She's also a clever girl who understands when her foster rubs their fingers together and calls her. She comes running for attention and is completely litter box trained with no accidents.
Atari isn't particularly interested in wild play right now, although she has enjoyed her catnip kicker a few times. After everything she's been through at such a young age, she's more than happy to spend her days eating, resting, purring, and enjoying being someone's beloved companion.
And did we mention she's polydactyl? Those adorable extra toes are just one more reason to fall for this already irresistible girl.
Atari has been a mama far sooner than she should have had to be. Soon, it will be her turn to be someone's baby. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate, wonderfully sweet young cat who will happily fill your home with purrs and biscuits, Atari is ready for her happily-ever-after.

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.
