Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Peas N Carrots is no side dish - this sweet girl is the main course and the entertainment to boot! She is a social butterfly and loves to interact with everyone around her - feline or human alike, especially if that means cuddles are involved.
Peas N Carrots had a rough start - she was found stuck in a storm sewer drain and needed rescue from firefighters to escape! It was then they discovered she had severe wounds and a damaged spine. This brave girl has bounced back from this experience with the most loving and snuggly personality, and just wants to crawl into your lap and quietly soak in all the pets you have to offer.
Due to her back injuries, Peas N Carrots is incontinent and needs to be expressed (gently squeezed!) a few times a day to go to the bathroom. She sees being expressed as another opportunity for cuddling, and is a sweet little angel throughout the process - she would be a great cat for someone interested in adopting a medical needs animal but has never done it before. Caring for an incontinent cat is easier than you may think. Want proof? Check out this video: bit.ly/CatExpressionDemo
When it's not cuddle time, she is game to play! She absolutely loves kicker toys and ribbon toys. She would thrive in a home with a cat friend who matches her energy level, and people who can spend time with her - she is such a sweetheart that she would likely do well with kids too!
APA! will support you with her medical needs, and she'll charm any additional worries you may have away with her easy going personality. Don't miss out on this loving, special girl!
All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
