About Bijou

Bijou is the gentle giant of his litter, known for his snuggly nature. He was bottle-fed from just one day old, which has made him incredibly social with both humans and other animals. This playful kitten loves to engage in wrestling matches with his siblings but has a softer side, often seeking out cuddles by sitting on his foster mama's chest. The name Bijou, meaning "little jewel" in French, suits him perfectly. He would thrive in a home with another friendly cat for companionship and would love to be adopted with his sister Violette or one of his other siblings. Bijou is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and full of love. This affectionate guy is ready to find his forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
