About Sunkist

Meet Sunkist, a stunning orange and white domestic short hair who’s eager to find his forever home. At about 2 years old and weighing 11 lbs, he has been fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations. Sunkist has a fun personality. He thrives on attention and loves to be petted, often rolling around in happiness when you talk to him. He sleeps cuddled in bed with his foster mom, forming strong bonds with his humans. He enjoys being outdoors but prefers to stay as an indoor/outdoor cat. While he gets along with the dogs in his foster home, Sunkist prefers to be the only cat, as he tends to be a bit of a "boss kitty" and can intimidate other cats. He hasn’t been exposed to children directly, but we believe he would fit well with kids aged 5 and older, given they respect his boundaries. If Sunkist sounds like the right fit for you, he’s packed and ready to go!
