Persian kittens & cats in Austin, Texas

Winston is a purebred Persian with a lot of personality. He has strong, classic features that give him a naturally serious, grumpy expression, but he is actually one of the sweetest cats you will meet. He loves people, loves being petted, and is always happy to be around you. He's very athletic, healthy (never human food), and has great energy, but he also knows how to relax and keep you company. Winston is social without being overwhelming, he has an easy, comforting presence whether you are working, hanging out, or just at home. I am looking for a great home for him because I am relocating to New York City and, unfortunately, will not have the right space for him there. Winston deserves a good home where he will be part of the family and get the attention he loves. If you are looking for a loving, loyal cat with a unique look and a calm, friendly personality, Winston would be a great fit.

Mr. Handsome, Friendly, Hipster Laszlo wears a long-haired black and white tuxedo and sports a little soul patch under his chin - he is gorgeous! His name translates to “glorious ruler”, and this fine kitty will definitely rule your heart. It’s perfectly okay with him if you scoop him up and snuggle him! He especially loves it when you scratch his cheeks and chin. At the shelter, Laszlo has shown that he seems to love all cats, cuddling, sleeping, and goofing around with his roommates. He is an equal-opportunity lovebug! Otherwise, he spends his time on patrol looking out the window, finding the good catnip toys to roll around on, and playing with rolly balls. Prior to his arrival at APA!, Laszlo suffered trauma to his tail, which gave him incontinence. He can’t empty his bladder on his own, so he needs his humans to manually express his bladder for him, which means gently pressing on it to help him go pee. It’s easier than it sounds, and APA! will show you how and make sure you are comfortable with it. He also takes some supportive meds, and needs a booty clean-up now and then. Caring for an incontinent cat is easier than you may think. Check out this video, and please consider adopting Laszlo! bit.ly/CatExpressionDemo Laszlo is fun, loving, and a great companion - for you and for another cat! Contact APA! for information on how to care for him, and to ask any questions you have. And to meet this wondrous boy! 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 Laszlo, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.

Fluffy, Calm, Sweet Sacred Potato is THE FLUFFIEST. He has an amazing long-haired coat and features a mane that can easily rival a lion. He's mostly white with black markings and has the cutest little pink nose. Sacred Potato loves for you to pet and groom his luxurious coat and mane! When it comes to companion this long hair fluff is THE BEST. He likes to be on you - or next to you - or at least in the same room with you! He enjoys everyone's company, and has done well with kids 3 and up. He prefers to be with his people. He is a sweet potato! Sometimes Sacred Potato makes that conscious decision to settle down and hang out in his own space, just chillin'. Because there are times when he likes things on the calm side - he will meow to say hello or to ask for dinner; he's a quiet guy, too - and might be startled by a sudden sound or movement. His Shakespearean side comes out when he is learning what to scratch and what not to scratch, but we think he can easily learn that with a designated scratching post in his new home. When it comes to playtime, we are back at that Potato part in his name - he might be a bit of a couch potato! He's simply happy being with you, or taking a nap, or lounging around. Contact us today to arrange a meet & greet with fluffy, sweet, and couch-y Sacred Potato! Sacred Potato 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. Sacred Potato 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 Sacred Potato's 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.

Stunning, Snuggly and Social! Despite her name, Vampire Slayer is a gentle and affectionate lass. Her luscious long and fluffy Manx and maine coon fur is a winning combination. She loves her people and has no problem showing you how much. She likes to be in the crowd to show off her gorgeous locks and her big beautiful amber eyes that will mesmerize you. She has the most expressive face! Vampire loves to sleep in the bed with you and will purr with glee. She has quite the "vocabulary" of different squeaks and meows, and she likes to chat with you! She responds to the name Buffy, literally - if you call her name she'll reply with a squeak - adorable! She does great with other dogs, cats and humans. Vampire is very easy to care for, even with her special needs, she is very clean. In return, she gives tons of love and laughs! She is incontinent and wears a diaper because she sometimes drips a few drops of urine if she's due to be expressed. She needs expressions 3 times day. She is used to getting expressed over the toilet, so there's basically zero mess to clean up and it only takes 1-2 minutes and is worth the love in return. Vampire has also had both back feet amputated, due to her feet being misshapen at birth. She can put weight on her back "nubbins" and walk, but generally scoots around on her little diapered butt. She is so happy and super mobile, and the only thing she can't do is jump - she still gets up on the furniture using ramps or just using her incredible upper body strength – we call her Buff Buffy! Her resilience is just amazing and will make you love her more. This sweet soul is sure to bring you joy! 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.
