Aikan Domestic Short Hair Chicago, IL

This little lady struts around the house with a little crook in her question mark tail, greeting people with a trill to let them know what’s up. Somehow Aikin manages to be a perfectly balanced cat. She likes to curl up next to people to get scratched behind her neck and stroked down her back. However, she also spends plenty of time entertaining herself and lounging on cushions.

Aikin is playful but not overly so, happy to be a nap time buddy or to chase a tantalizing string. She chirps in the most adorable way, but at the same time is mostly a quiet girl. If any cat could be described as “zen,” that would be Aikin.

Her green eyes compliment the little white stars on her belly and chest, and her nose and face are perfectly midnight colored. Although she can be shy and likes being under tables in new spaces, she’s happy to greet guests if they have a toy in hand. She’s the perfect cuddle bug for any apartment or home. Aikan was born April 6, 2018.
