Polydactyl kittens & cats in Austin, Texas

Social, Observant, Polydactyl Guppy's personality is as unique as her extra toe beans! And she puts those extra beans to good use immediately - Guppy could open her own bakery with how hard her biscuit making skills go! She is not quite a lapcat, and prefers not to be picked up, but she eagerly sits next to her humans and makes happy biscuits in their lap the whole time she can cozy up nearby. Playtime is not a huge priority for Guppy. She's too busy keeping her biscuit-filled bakery running to have time off for toys! Truly, not many typical cat toys have caught Guppy's eye, but a tunnel to run through, or some squeaky toys and scratch pads are plenty for her! She is super interested in real life as it happens around her, and would enjoy a comfortable windowsill with a good view that she can observe the outside world from. If there are silly birds or squirrels to watch, even better! Guppy is quite the social gal! She is affectionate in her own way, and loves to initiate interaction with her humans on her terms. Mostly, she will set the physical boundaries of how close or far she will sit - but the second she settles down, those biscuits will be made rapidly! The best way to approach Guppy is with a calm and slow introduction. She will clearly set her own boundaries of whether or not she is in the mood. She'll indicate with a sweet head nuzzle if she is ready for pets, or back off if she decides now is not the time! Guppy would benefit from a human who is happy to let her set the pace for their cuddle and pet sessions, and someone who is willing and able to recognize her cues. Guppy's social behavior applies to respectful kids and other cats also! She has done well in foster previously with children ages 8 and up who are aware of typical cat boundaries and are able to calmly interact with her! She also immediately, eagerly interacted with the resident cats in her foster home. Guppy would fit into a multi-cat household no problem, especially if the other cats are outgoing and friendly like Guppy is with other felines! Give this sweet lady a chance and watch her blossom into the loving, independent feline she can be! Contact APA! today to adopt Guppy into your family! 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.

Beans is so EXTRA in literally every way.    He most obviously has EXTRA toes as a poly kitty.  He is EXTRA affectionate, you have to want a cuddly lap kitty who gives kisses, he's drapes across my chest and rubbing on my hands even as a type this. He is EXTRA soft, the most amazing bunny fur, looks like he will be a medium longhair and also EXTRA gorgeous (as a bonus) He is EXTRA social and wants to meet everyone, all the time.  He comes to work with me and is the official greeter and lap cuddler. He is EXTRA goofy with no filter.  He is right there involved with everything you do even if he gets wet or falls down. He is EXTRA special as a mix between a Siamese and a fluffy longhair tuxedo He is EXTRA lucky.  Seriously, this kitty was saved from a predator attack and then able to be rushed to a safe place at a rural reascue.  Beans was  rescued with his brother after theirr mama was killed defending them against a predator.  This guy is the definition of luck.  He was rescued, taken to a loving foster home and recovered from his injury from the attack.  He is living in a family with other cats and dogs and going to work with their foster mom.  They meet so many more people at their foster mom's job and love to travel in the car.  He is super social and confident with people, in new places and with other dogs and kitties, due to this enriched babyhood. From his injury as a baby, he does have some hind end weakenss which makes him adorably wobbly and can't jump high but lives a totally normal kitty life and can run and play and jump to low things. ##2136761##

Chai is a beautiful, laid back girl who loves to give and receive affection. She gets along well with everyone but would be fine with being an only cat. Chai is on the smaller side but her fluff makes her look bigger. Her favorite activity is lounging next to her foster mom and hanging out on her scratchpad. Her fur is super soft and you can't help but scoop her up and give her some love! She is extremely friendly, social and settles in quickly to new spaces. She can't wait to find her forever home where she'll be loved and spoiled endlessly :)If you have any questions, reach out to Chai's foster mom, Jesse (jesseblack713@gmail.com) or fill out an application online! ##2235141##
