This cat has the prettiest eyes.

Meet Appa. Appa is just over a year old and is ready for his new home. He was an owner surrender but, we don't really know why. In my brief encounter with Appa, he was pretty chill for a cat in a brand-new environment.

He was purring, looking around, and overall just relaxing.

I will say this, Appa has incredibly soft fur. Softer than any other short-haired cat I've met.

Appa does great with kids and dogs but, for some reason, does not get along with other cats. So if you have a puppy or a fully grown dog that needs a companion, Appa would be the perfect fit for your home.

If you're interested in adopting Appa, he's available right now. Stop by the SPCA of SW Michigan during their normal business hours and say hello to see if he's right for you.

If you love cats, you'll love an upcoming event for the SPCA of Sw Michigan.

Kazoo Books is hosting a cat adoption event on August 12th. It's in honor of the bookstore's free-roaming cat, Radio, who recently passed away. Sad, I know. But, what a lovely tribute.
