My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Affectionate, Mischievous, Commanding
Sunflower is finishing up raising her kittens and ready to make her permanent spot right next to you! She has a beautiful dark tortie coat that makes her yellow eyes dazzle! Her little nose is half orange and half black, so you want to 'boop' it every time you see her!
Sunflower is playful and very friendly, happy and laid back. She will give very soft love bites; she loves all her humans and even gives little love bites to small humans, just to ask for attention! She's sweet with everyone but should probably be supervised around very small children. When you walk around, she will sometimes try and play with your ankles! She is vocal if you don't give her attention and will tap your leg with her paw if you 'forget' to keep petting her. She is a confident girl, not afraid to ask for what she wants!
Sunflower plays by herself with ball toys, and has been playing with her kittens. She has seen the other cats in her foster home but has not interacted with them. She seems very laid back with them near her so she most likely wouldn't mind a home with another friendly cat. She would fit right into a home with a family to love on her a lot!
She is highly affectionate and loves to snuggle. Like a sunflower will follow the sun, our little Sunflower will follow you to get her pets! Contact us today to meet this little ray of sunshine!
APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
For further information or to meet Sunflower, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
