About Puma

Despite her adventurous nature, Puma is a confirmed lap cat at heart. She revels in cozy one-on-one time and loves being affectionate, though she has some boundaries—especially when it comes to her stomach during petting sessions. Puma is ready for a loving home where she can settle in at her own pace and share her sweetness with the right person.
