Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
If Bug Juice were an actual bug, he’d probably be a daddy long leg with his lean, long-legged body and friendly nature! Bug Juice loves to explore and be around people more than anything. He’s always exploring around the house and following wherever the action is (his foster describes him as a velcro cat). He will happily fit into any home where he can hang out with you as much as possible!
Since he loves being around people so much, Bug Juice can’t help but meow for attention, but he’s not overly chatty whatsoever. He’s very snuggly and loves to be petted, and he even enjoys being held and getting belly rubs. Given how easygoing he is with being touched, Bug Juice would probably be comfortably around kids too!
As much as he enjoys relaxing and snuggling, Bug Juice is always ready for a play session if you are! He will always investigate any new thing that catches his attention, but he especially loves rolling golf balls around, chasing hair ties, and playing with the feather wand toy.
The perfect home for Bug Juice is one where he will get lots of attention and human interaction. He loves people so much and deserves to be loved as much as he will surely love you!
Bug Juice has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter life-span. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. Bug Juice can only live with other FeLV+ cats, but dogs and other animals are just fine! Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care.
All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
For further information or to meet Bug Juice, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
