Custard is an American Shorthair red tabby and is currently a young, medium-sized cat living in Kohler, WI. She is spayed and has been house trained. Her polydactyl trait—an extra toe on her back feet—makes her especially unique. As a young female, she's still growing into her personality.

About Custard

Custard and her sister Pudding were found with their brothers living under a backyard shed before being rescued. Out of the group, Custard is the shyest, but still warm and playful in her own way. She enjoys playing with her siblings but often prefers some quiet alone time. Custard is a big fan of wet food and never turns down a treat. She is a red tabby, polydactyl, and has an extra toe on her back feet, which sets her apart from her sister. Because she’s a young cat, adopting her with another kitten from her group—or providing an existing young cat companion—is recommended, so she has feline company. Ready to meet your new best friend?
