Hi, my name is Rupert. I am a 3-month-old, male, orange tabby kitten. If mischief had a face, it would be mine! I am the classic, chaotic ginger boy — equal parts mayhem and cuddles, and somehow, I make it work. I live life at full speed! I'll chase a ball across the room, zoom around the corner, and then immediately climb up to perch on your shoulder like a tiny pirate parrot. Affectionate doesn't even cover it — I want to be with you, preferably at shoulder height. The real testament to my charm? I've completely won over my foster brother, a cat who has historically wanted absolutely nothing to do with foster kittens! I didn't get the memo, kept showing up with good energy, and — well — here we are. If I can crack that tough crowd, I can probably win over anyone! I would thrive in a home with other cats to play with and people who have plenty of time and toys to match my energy. I haven't been introduced to young kids or dogs yet, so a slow and careful introduction would be recommended there. I'm ready for my forever home with someone who wants a velcro cat with a wild streak, a shoulder companion, and a little, orange chaos agent to keep things interesting! 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!
