Toad C11788 - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption

Hi, I'm Toad!

I may have been named after a toad, but I'm actually a professional cuddle bug. If you're sitting down, I'm already planning how to end up in your arms. Being held? Yes, please. Belly rubs? Even better.

When I'm not collecting snuggles, I'm busy doing normal kitten things like chasing jingly toys, attacking wand toys with dramatic flair, and piling up with my siblings for the world's cutest group naps. I love people, greet attention with a loud purr, and will happily rub against your legs until you remember your only job is petting me.

I'm doing great with my litter box, use scratching posts like a champ, and keep my teeth to myself. Basically, I'm the total package-sweet, playful, and ridiculously cuddly.

I am wonderfully social, playful, and adaptable. I love people, enjoy being held, have excellent litter box manners, and am ready to fill my forever home with purrs, cuddles, and plenty of kitten entertainment. Adopt me if you've always wanted a tiny, purring weighted blanket that occasionally zooms across your living room.

*This animal will be attending our Summer of Love Adoption Event at the Mall of America on Sunday, August 16th, from 11 AM - 1 PM. If you're interested in adopting, you must attend the event in person and be prepared to take the animal home that same day. Adoptions will be handled on-site only-please do not submit an online application prior to the event. Adoption decisions are made at the discretion of our staff and fosters. If this animal is not adopted at the event, they may become available through our standard adoption process afterward. Animal availability is subject to change at any time.*

Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats' emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of "Single Kitten Syndrome" (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten's most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.

The domestic short hair cat is a popular and diverse breed known for its unique personalities and low maintenance care. These cats come in various colors and patterns, with short, easy to manage coats that require minimal grooming. Domestic short hairs are friendly, adaptable, and make wonderful companions for individuals and families alike. They possess playful and affectionate qualities that endear them to many, making them one of the most beloved and widely adopted cat breeds worldwide.

Our vision is simple: We strive for a world where every companion animal has a safe and loving forever home...
