My story

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

Calm, Happy, Talkative

Meet Taika!

This sweet boy is so ready for new friends! He warms up quickly to new situations and absolutely loves pets and affection - get ready for this little house tiger to stick next to you. He likes to chat and will let you know when he needs some attention or some love - he will have full on conversations with his foster family!

His calm and happy demeanor makes us think he'd be great with all kinds of family members. He likes to cuddle and play with other nice cats, and had experience with kids in his previous home. He's playful, especially with string toys - and he loves to slide a bottle cap around the floor! - but can just as easily relax next to you on the couch. He's often even in the right mood to be held or to get belly rubs!

Taika's ideal home has lots of time with his people so if you're looking for a sweet little velcro cat, he might just be perfect for you! Reach out today to meet him and find out.

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.

For further information or to meet Taika, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
