Picasso - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Vaughan, 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**

***Picasso gets along with other cats, and would do well with a gentle and playful cat buddy in his new home.

In pursuit of a mother cat and her kittens, the trapper inadvertently trapped this very tame and friendly guy, before he contributed unnecessarily to the cat population in his neighbourhood.

Meet Picasso, a sweet and affectionate six-month-old kitten with a big heart and an even bigger love for his humans!

Picasso loves being held and will happily spend as much time as possible cuddled up with his favourite people. He's easygoing, friendly, and enjoys the company of other cats. When he's not busy socializing, you'll find him happily chasing wand toys or batting around his favourite bell-ringing balls.

And when it comes to food...Picasso definitely knows what he wants! He comes running at the sound of a can being opened and never turns down a tasty treat. A midnight snack of Churu or Temptations is part of his regular routine.

Picasso would be a wonderful addition to a loving family who can give him plenty of attention, affection, and of course, the occasional (or frequent!) snack. He's ready to bring lots of love, purrs, and playful energy to his forever home.

Not everyone can claim to have a Picasso, could he be your new treasured family member?

All AVA kittens 12 months or younger must be adopted in pairs or go to a home with another young cat (3 years or younger). Kittens learn from each other how to behave, which helps them turn into well-adjusted adult cats.
