My story

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

Charismatic, Entertaining, Loving

Mini Arrietty is extremely cuddly and friendly! She quickly warms up when meeting someone new. Her favorite thing is to share her affection with you, snuggling as much as possible. She welcomes pets and chin scratches! When she's not snoozing, Mini prefers to be in whatever room you are in, just so she can know everything that you're doing!

When playing, Mini will do funny tricks that will catch you off guard and have you laughing! She gets excited over toys and will play with them by herself or interactively when you wave, toss, and move them around. She gets very excited and has the best time chasing toys and "catching" them! Her favorite toys are anything soft or fluffy, as well as shoelaces.

Mini is social and chummy, though she prefers her humans as adults, young adults, and older kids who can pet and play with her gently and respectfully. She is calm and likes to be around people with the same kind of low-key and harmonious nature.

Mini is a low-maintenance girl who is looking for a home with soft places to nap, interesting toys to play with, and people to shower her with love, attention, and lots of cuddles! She has a pretty white coat with brown/gray tabby stripes and the sweetest face. And, like her name, she is rather miniature! While she may be petite, she has a big, snuggly heart. Contact us today to arrange a meet & greet!

Mini Arrietty 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. She 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.
