Bandit A Cow Kitty American Shorthair & Domestic Short Hair Mix Newport Beach, CA

Bottle Fed and Hand RaisedI am Robin the foster mom of young Bandit. He will probably always look like a kitten because he is petite in size. I named him Bandit because he makes me laugh by stealing my cat's toys and my socks and takes the things to his hiding place under the bed.

Bandit just turned a year old, but he is petite in size so he still looks like a kitten and his coloring pattern is known as a "Cow Kittie". Everyone at my work on zoom loves his markings with his black eyepatch and tail, plus a few black spots here and there. His fur is so soft - he feels like a bunny.

He grew up with his brother so he had a good upbringing with interactive play, too. He lives with me and my two five-year-old male cats and Bandit is too much "about" play for them, or I would adopt him. He does well with my cats but despite his petite size he thinks he should get all the loving and tries to be the dominant cat.

Bandit was bottle fed and hand-raised which gave him his love to snuggle with humans. He loves to cuddle and snuggle up to your neck. He is a very affectionate cat, but he is shy at first. He can't refuse petting, toys and wet food, so those are the methods to use when you first meet him and he seems shy. Once he feels comfortable, he will want to play and cuddle every day.

He wants to be close so he can be stubborn about rules to not get on the table. He is excellent when it comes to the litter box and not using his claws. He has not scratched one thing in my house, not even the leather furniture. He has no desire to go outside, and he loves the cat grass I grow. Bandit is the perfect cat for someone who wants a small cat that wants to play and cuddle.
