Meet Raton, a handsome brown tabby boy born May 6, 2026, with a BIG personality packed into one little kitten! This sweet, active, and incredibly smart little guy knows exactly what he wants. Raton may give you his best resting beef face at first, making you work a little to earn his affection, but once youre in his inner circle, youll discover a total lovebug who will have you laughing every day. He is playful, friendly, feisty, and wonderfully mischievous, with a clever little mind that is always coming up with his next adventure.

Raton loves to run, climb, chase toys, and explore every inch of his surroundings. He especially enjoys turning his litter box into a personal sandbox, which means he has officially lost his clay-litter privileges and now uses pine litter! This energetic boy will thrive with an adopter who can keep his busy body and developing brain entertained with plenty of toys, cat towers, and interactive play. Raton also arrived with a sensitive tummy and currently does best on Blue Buffalo Wilderness Chicken and Blue Buffalo Baby Blue chicken food. His adopter will need to introduce any new foods slowly, but with the right care and lots of playtime, this funny, affectionate little tabby is sure to become an unforgettable companion.
