About Pippin

Meet Pippin! This charming orange tabby is quick to greet new faces and just as eager to curl up in a lap. His unusual squeaky meow adds a bit of personality to his affectionate demeanor. When playtime strikes, he’s full of energy, running and wrestling before finding his way back to you for cuddles. Once he’s settled, expect him to demand extra attention – he just can’t get enough love! Pippin thrives on affection and is captivated by everything around him, from toys to the quiet company of a person. Food is definitely a highlight of his day; he’d enthusiastically devour a lasagna, but lap time is his ultimate favorite. He may need a moment to adjust to sudden movements or noises but generally does well with gentle, respectful kids. Ideally, he would enjoy the company of another cat, especially his brother Silas or playful foster mates like Mira or Little Bean, to keep him engaged. He’s already shown he can bond with other cats, like Ash, so there’s a good chance he’d warm up to a feline friend quickly. While he hasn’t met dogs yet, thoughtful introductions would likely be no problem. Pippin would love to find a home where he can be a part of everything that goes on. This delightful guy is in a foster home and ready to join a family that appreciates a curious companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
