Affectionate, cuddly couch potato

Sugar Bush is aptly named because she's one of the sweetest, friendliest kitties you'll ever meet! She loves people of all ages and is always ready to show them some love.

When you approach, she'll flop over on her side for belly rubs and make biscuits while you stroke her. If you sit down, she's in your lap. She enjoys being picked up and carried. Her idea of heaven would be having you carry her around in a baby sling all day while she gazes adoringly at you. She even lets kids dress her up in costumes! Just imagine her sweet little face peeking through a shark hood costume!

Sugar Bush would much rather snooze than chase toys. She's the perfect couch potato kitty and bed buddy.

Sugar Bush gets along well with her kitty roommates, even though one of them isn't very nice to her. She just walks away from any hisses and swats. She can be a bit of a picky eater, but as long as she has some tempting options, she'll eat.

We can just see Sugar Bush as the next internet star, dressed in her frilly best at a little girl's tea party, and also as the little girl's parents' snuggly movie binge buddy! If she sounds just like what your family needs, hurry on down to meet her!

Sugar Bush 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. She 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.
