About Pumpkin

Meet Pumpkin, a sweet and gentle boy. He’s quite shy initially but becomes friendly and playful as he gets comfortable. Growing up with many other cats, he’ll thrive best with one of his siblings, Butternut or Sweet Potato, or any other friendly feline companion to help him settle in. Pumpkin’s ideal home is likely a quieter one, where a patient and loving environment allows him to blossom. He may scurry and hide when frightened, so a slow acclimation to his new surroundings will be key to bringing out his true personality. This young kitty is just 4 months old, which makes him a baby in the feline world. Are you ready to give him the loving home he deserves?
