Pippin Domestic Short Hair Dawson, GA

Pippin is a hoot and a half! Not only is he a gorgeous little guy, he is incredibly entertaining. He spent the first few of months of his life at the vets office, so he was used to a small, confined space most of the time. When he came to his foster home at about 4 months, he was very overwhelmed and terrified of everything. He acted exactly like a feral kitten for 24-36 hours before his need for love was just too much for him to resist. He hissed and growled for a few days while being loved on and/or rubbing all over us - which was pretty funny. He decided having lots of room to run and play, not to mention having other foster siblings to play and snuggle with, was The. Best. Ever. He earned his name (Pippin Took - Lord of the Rings trilogy) within the first few days - he was so clumsy and accident prone! He ran through the water bowls, turned over the food bowls when running through them, miscalculated distance and height, face planted into and off of everythinghe was on a mission to make up for those first few months being confined and he was unstoppable! I'm happy to report that he is not as clumsy as he was at first, but his name is still very fitting.

Pippin loves cuddling and is pretty demanding when he wants love. He is crazy playful, with high energy just like you'd expect in a kitten his age. Pippin has not been around children and was only exposed to dogs through confinement while at the vet. He is super social however and has a perfect temperament- I feel completely sure that he can adjust to any family situation.
