About Apollo

Apollo comes across like a tiny lion cub, full of charisma but with none of the fierceness. He’s playful, social, and loves any opportunity to climb over pillow forts or curl up in your arms for a nap. Whether he’s chasing after his sister Artemis (they’d make a great pair if adopted together), tumbling around with fellow kitten Pumpkin, or sharing space with the resident boxer Zelda, Apollo fits right in with a lively home. He’s a real charmer when it comes to teaser toys, often grabbing the stick so he can strut around like he owns the place. Despite his playful antics, he never uses his claws on people and greets affection with belly rubs and nose kisses. Apollo will make a house feel warmer the moment he walks in.
