Umami's Story

I’m a sweet, snuggly guy with a big heart and an even bigger purr! I love to be cuddled and brushed and am quick to purr when you pick me up. When I’m not soaking up the love, I’m all about playtime! Wand toys (my fuzzy wiggle worm is irresistible!), laser dots, and anything that rolls or makes noise are my favorites. I also go wild for uncommonly good handmade Alley Cats & Angels catnip kickers! But I’m not just a solo act. I love playing chase and wrestling with my kitty friends. I’d do best in a home with another high-energy kitty who enjoys a good tumble as much as I do. I’m a great eater too—wet food or kibble, I’m not picky. Let’s be best buds! Est. DOB: January 19, 2025 Fully vetted: treated for fleas, ear mites, and intestinal parasites, tested for FeLV/FIV (negative unless otherwise noted), spayed/neutered, up to date on all vaccinations (including FVRCP+FeLV [initial vaccination and booster] and rabies), and microchipped with shelter paid registration.
