Alienmama is a young, black and white Domestic Short Hair with a calm, affectionate temperament. At about 1 year and 1 month old, she’s a spayed female, fully vaccinated, and currently lives in Austin, TX. She has some balance issues due to weak back legs, which give her a special charm and requires a home with gentle care and patience.

About Alienmama

Alienmama lives for affection, greeting you with gentle head-butts and a quiet, happy purr. She came to APA! with five kittens in tow and, despite weaker back legs that make getting around tougher, has cared for them remarkably well. Her mobility challenges mean she doesn't jump onto furniture or counters, so she’s less likely to cause mischief and more likely just to stay by your side. Alienmama hasn’t explored play much because of her responsibilities as a mother and her balance issues, but once her kittens head off to new homes and her hips are treated, she may become more playful. This black and white tuxedo girl thrives on calm, patient attention. She’d do best in a mellow home—adults, teens, or gentle older kids—where folks will treat her body kindly. She might be okay with a calm feline buddy, but boisterous pets or small, excitable children could make things hard for her. Alienmama is on medication for comfort and deserves a peaceful spot to call her own. She’d love to meet you if you have a soft spot for special cats. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
