About Squash

Squash is the most delightful little troublemaker you’ll ever meet! Each morning kicks off with her signature “trample time” as she leads a stampede through the house, bounding over her siblings and the unsuspecting humans still nestled in bed, all in the name of breakfast. Once she’s devoured her wet food and chased it down with kibble, she claims her nap spot knowing she’s done her job of ensuring her family wakes up on time. As the most curious of her siblings, Squash must investigate everything you consume. She’ll sit on your lap in the bathroom, inspect your meals with serious attention, or pounce from behind the shower curtain, ensuring you're always alert. Water is her favorite plaything—whether it's running faucets or splashes from your feet, she'll find a way to make every water encounter fun. Despite her energetic antics, Squash knows how to settle down. She loves her cat tower, cuddles during nap time, and quietly sleeps on you at night. She’s good with dogs but takes a bit of time to warm up. Always using her litter box, she’s a well-mannered kitten. This engaging little lady could be the heart of your home!
