Afshin is a fluffy, orange-and-white charmer with a heart as big as his luxurious coat. This handsome adult boy made his way from a rural outdoor colony into foster care and it didn’t take long to discover that what he truly craves isn’t the great outdoors—it’s people. If you sit down, Afshin will be there. If you have hands, he will find them. His favorite pastime is sprawling across his foster mom’s lap and enthusiastically smooshing his face into her fingers, soaking up every bit of affection he can get. When he’s not napping (which he does with equal dedication), he’s on a mission for attention—gently reminding you that he’s ready for more love. Afshin is also wonderfully easygoing when it comes to food—perhaps a little too easygoing. He happily enjoys anything offered, so measured meals will help him stay at a healthy weight. Treats are, of course, always appreciated in his world. Playtime brings out his joyful side, especially when feather wand toys are involved. He’ll leap, chase, and pounce with enthusiasm. When he’s in a calmer mood, you’ll often find him perched on his cat tree, watching the morning birds like it’s his favorite TV show. Socially, Afshin seems to get along just fine with other cats but isn’t particularly dependent on them—he’s much more focused on his human companions. He could happily live with another easygoing cat or thrive as a solo pet, as long as his people are around enough to give him the attention he adores. His experience with dogs and young children is unknown, but with slow, thoughtful introductions, he would likely adjust well. In new environments, Afshin may briefly retreat to a hiding spot—but don’t let that fool you. It doesn’t take much gentle encouragement before he’s back where he belongs: curled up in your lap, asking for affection. Afshin is ready to leave his outdoor past behind and settle into a home where he can be someone’s constant, affectionate companion. If you’re looking for a cat who will truly want to be with you every moment you’re available, Afshin is your guy.

Notes:
The adoption fee includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner. There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
