About Kipper

Kipper, also known as Kippy or Benson Kipruto, is a charming six-month-old tabby with a Puddle-shaped physique. This playful little guy was rescued from a tough situation alongside other adoptable friends. Though he joined the indoor life a bit later, he's already getting the hang of it. His taste for treats is undeniable; he especially loves cheese and eagerly takes hard treats from your hand. He has a knack for chasing fishing toys and gets a kick out of stealing springs from his foster father, Puddle. Expect Kipper to warm up gradually, as he spent over five months outdoors before coming inside. He loves snuggles and will seek your lap once he knows it’s safe – especially if treats are involved. This sweet boy would thrive in a home with another playful cat or kitten that can keep up with his energy and curiosity. If you're ready to help Kipper adjust and enjoy the adventures of indoor living, consider applying to adopt him today!
