About Sumo

Sumo is an independent little guy with stunning eyes that feature a unique blend of brown and blue. His striking look matches his personality perfectly. Unlike most kittens who crave constant companionship, Sumo is content with his own space, often found napping alone or enjoying a toy on his own. But don’t be fooled by his independent streak. Sumo has a playful side that emerges unexpectedly; he can jump right into the fun with his fellow kittens, joining in on a wrestling match before retreating back to his favorite cozy spot for some peace. A bit timid at first, he may take some time to feel at home, but with patience, his playful and curious nature will shine. He’s ideal for someone looking for a sweet kitten who appreciates solo playtime but also knows when to let loose and join the fun. Sumo seeks a loving home that respects his personality — a sweet, slightly introverted kitty who knows the joys of enjoying his own company. Located in Chattanooga, TN, Sumo is available for transport to various locations across the continental United States. Please note, we cannot adopt to residents of Massachusetts at this time.
