About Tansy
Tansy is a 10-month-old orange tabby kitten living in Austin, TX. He’s a curious, playful little guy who has a knack for entertaining himself with all sorts of toys—springs and tunnels top his list, but bell balls don’t interest him one bit. He was found in a bush, likely stashed there by his mom, and since then has come a long way in growing brave and sociable. Tansy is pretty food motivated, especially for anything meaty, and that’s an easy way to win his trust. He’s litterbox trained and handles new environments with a healthy mix of caution and resilience. He tends to be reserved at first, but warms up quickly, especially with some patience and snacks. Tansy is not much of a cuddler. He prefers companionship close by, rather than in your arms—though he reliably crashes on laps for naps after a long play session. With a gentle introduction, he’s likely to do well with calm cats and dogs. He’s been comfortable around kids 11 and up, especially those who know their way around cats. No experience yet with toddlers or little ones. You’ll hear him chirping when he’s happy or curious, and he often trails his sister on her adventures (and misadventures!) around the house. If you’re looking for a playful, slightly independent kitten, Tansy brings a lot of spark and fun without being overly clingy. Ready to start the story with a Leo?
