Madrid - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Richmond, Virginia

Hi, my name is Madrid. I am a 3-month-old, male gray tabby kitten. I was rescued from a shelter along with my siblings and we were all named after capitals. I was also fostered along with another group of kittens named after pastries. All of us get along really well and can be adopted together. My siblings/foster siblings are Focaccia, Popover, Buckeye, Havana, Astana, and Rome. I am a dominant kitten and love social interaction with people. I guard my food and favorite toys with cute little growls, and I “protect” my siblings from bugs by getting to them first. I love to play until I flop from exhaustion, and then will get right back up and keep going a few minutes later. I’m very motivated by food, and a Churu will convince me into just about anything. But, when I’m tired, I’m the sweetest little cuddle bug. I’m always looking for the warmth of a lap (or laptop) and love to sit on the desk while my human is working. I want to be near the action, and I’m not afraid of strangers. I’m good with kids. I haven’t been introduced to dogs yet. I am neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines, tested for FIV/FeLV (negative/negative), and have my microchip. If you are interested in making me a part of your family, please click on the following link to fill out an Adoption Application http://www.purringheartsva.org and a volunteer will reach out to you within 72 hours. I hope to hear from my forever family soon!
