About Ficus

Ficus is an adventurous little fellow eager to explore. While he’s one of the bigger kittens in his litter, he prefers playing and discovering over curling up for cuddles. He’s shown some independence, often leading the pack in playtime with his siblings. However, he hasn't quite warmed up to the dogs at his foster home yet. With a little patience, he might adapt to a respectful dog's presence. His boisterous personality may not mesh well with older cats, so he would thrive best in a home with another kitten or a playful young adult cat. This little seal point is neutered and has his vaccinations up to date. Ficus is waiting for his forever home right now in Des Moines, IA. Ready to welcome this spirited boy into your life?
