In the shelter’s words

Hi, I'm Mouse, and I have quite the story to tell! When I was little, I spent my first couple of months as an only kitten. That meant I got lots of practice being the perfect people-cat. I loved snuggling in laps, soaking up attention, and purring right into your ear while you held me. Honestly, I thought life was all about cuddles and being adored. Then I met some kittens my own age... and let's just say I had a lot to learn. I wanted so badly to join the fun, but nobody had ever taught me proper kitten wrestling rules. I played a little too rough and didn't always realize when my bites or scratches were too hard. That's the kind of thing littermates and mama cats usually teach, and I had missed out on those lessons. Lucky for me, my foster home had four confident kittens who weren't afraid to put me in my place. They teamed up, wrestled with me, and patiently taught me some much-needed kitty manners. It turns out the best teachers sometimes come with paws! These days, I'm a whole new guy. I have lots of kitten friends to chase, wrestle, play, and snuggle with. I love spending time with my feline buddies, but I haven't forgotten how much I adore people, too. Give me a lap, some pets, and a chance to purr in your ear, and I'll be one happy boy. I'm Mouse, and I've grown into the best of both worlds: a sweet cuddle bug who also knows how to be a great friend to other cats. Could I be the missing piece of your family?
