Vivarium is a male, small baby cat, just 1 month old. His soft gray coat complements his friendly nature. He is fully vaccinated and adjusting well in his foster home, where he shares space with other cats and dogs. Though he comes with no special needs, he would flourish with a companion kitten.

About Vivarium

Vivarium is a sweet little bundle of joy who loves nothing more than a cozy snuggle session. He enjoys being wrapped up in a warm blanket—his very own purrito—while you hold him in your lap and scratch his ears. When he’s feeling extra comfy, he'll invite you to scratch his round little belly, and trust me, his purring is music to your ears. Currently, Vivarium shares his foster home with another kitten of similar age, and they’re like two peas in a pod, racing around and chasing each other with delight. His goofy crab walk is something you have to see to believe. He was initially a bit shy and skittish upon arriving at his foster home, but he settled in quickly with patience and love. Vivarium would thrive best with another playful kitten to keep him company. He has also been great with his foster's own cats and dogs, showing his friendly disposition. This charming little guy is ready to find a forever home where he can shine. Each cat adopted through APA! comes fully vetted, spayed or neutered, with updated vaccinations and a microchip, plus lifetime support from our Cat Behavior Team. Are you ready to welcome Vivarium into your life?
