Ziggy's Story

This is great fun!

Ziggy Gender: Male Age: 5 months (est. DOB 3/7/2012) Breed: Tabby Color: Brown Hometown: Santa Clara, CA Clan: Purrsimmon, Zoe Status: Adopted!

Hi, I'm Ziggy! My siblings and I were brought into the shelter when we were only a few days old; our eyes were still closed.  There were 8 of us and we needed round-the-clock bottle feeding, so the shelter split us up into 2 groups, and gave us to our foster parents to care for.  My group was given names that started with the letter Z, the other group were given names that started with Purr. We're all purr monsters, and love to be held, and purr as soon as we're touched.

I'm a handsome striped male, with beautiful markings on my tummy. I'm currently rooming with my sister Zoe and my buddy Vance -- I like to use him as a pillow when we nap.  I'm king of the highest place in the room, guarding my territory with (faux) fierceness. Even though I've got a surprisingly small voice, I like to pretend I'm a big, tough guy. My sister, Zoe, can see right through me, though, and gives as good as she gets.

The shelter had this to say about me:

Hello, my name is Ziggy!  I am a handsome fellow who just wants to be with people.  I love to be snuggled and I love to climb on shoulders!  I am a curious and outgoing kitten who has a world-class purr.

Won't you take me home?

Stop with the flash!
