About Nikita

Nikita is an adorable gray and white cat who started off shy but has blossomed in his foster home. Now, he enjoys cuddling on the couch or bed and receiving gentle pets. While he’s playful and curious, loud noises or sudden movements can still startle him. With loads of kitten energy, he loves treats, watching bird TV, and playing with his toys. His curiosity can lead to a bit of mischief, but he's smart and has even learned to play fetch and solve puzzles for treats. Nikita would thrive in a home with an energetic playmate, as his current foster sister prefers to lounge. It's important to note that he may need time to fully adjust to a new environment. Once comfortable, he will want to be close to his humans and would appreciate lots of playtime. Additionally, Nikita needs to be adopted with a friend; applications for him as a single cat won’t be considered. Your new best friend is just one click away.
