Ryu - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Redmond, Washington

Ryu is a sweet, cuddly guy who is initially a bit of an observer at first, but who loves to play- especially with sister, Cammy.

They can go together or individually to a home with another cat- but we do not advise adopting a single kitten.

It is best for most kittens to be adopted in pairs- or go home with another cat. This helps avoid "Tarzan syndrome" where single kittens become difficult because they have no one to play with and bite them back. This can become quite challenging to manage as they age- and is often a reason people desire to surrender cats later.

Also, nearly all who started out noting they only want one cat, come back about 6-9 months later and ask for another as a companion- however, it is much simpler to start with two that are bonded from the start.

The domestic short hair cat is a popular and diverse breed known for its unique personalities and low maintenance care.
