My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chill, Cuddly, Sweet!

Community Chest is a sleepy grandpa who just wants pets and biscuits! He's the most low maintenance and chill soul who is quite happy on his own throughout the day. He's missing one of his bottom teeth so sometimes his lip gets caught and he has an adorable little snaggle tooth moment - so cute!

Community Chest is quite calm. He just wants to hang and get lots of pets, including belly rubs. He'll nuzzle and come sit next to you on the couch or bed for attention. He loves to make biscuits on you instead of playing. He'll sleep in the bed with you, but will also snooze in another room as he is respectful of your space. He is very quiet unless it's chow time or if he wants attention.

Community Chest would do well in most homes. He takes a tiny bit of time to get used to new people but he warms up very quickly. He is a supremely handsome blue-gray and white tuxedo boy with a heart of sweet gold. Contact us today to meet him!

Community Chest has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter life-span. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. He can only live with other FeLV+ cats, but dogs and other animals are just fine! Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care.

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.
