Patty - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Pickering, Ontario

**NOTE: All AVA kittens under 12 months of age MUST be adopted in pairs or to a home with another young cat. AVA does not accept applications for single kittens**

Patty is one of 5 brothers (Louis, Alvin, Leonard and Milo) who were born on a farm. These boys are all extremely affectionate and playful. During their time outside they were taken care of by a family with kids so they love to be held/ handled. Each of these boys love to be cuddled, pet and will offer you a million kisses to show how much they love you. Not only do they love the affection of humans, they love each other. They love the play (especially wrestle), groom and cuddle each other. They would be happy to be adopted with another one of their brothers! To balance their sweet side they’re also playful and love to play with toys. They’re so happy with any toy you give them!

Although these brothers share their sweet and playful personalities they do have special little quirks that make them unique.

You can usually spot Patty amongst his brothers because he’s the boy who’s always purring the loudest. He’s a very happy boy who will often purr for no reason at all. He’s purrs while he sleeps, while he eats, and especially purrs while he cuddles. Patty is a super affectionate boy who will give you a million kisses and snuggles. You may even catch him sticking his tongue out because he’s always ready to give you more kisses. Patty loves play time and takes it very seriously, often pretending he’s hunting his toys giving them little hisses. Patty loves food, loves to play, but he especially loves to cuddle.
