Potato is a world-class lap cat

Potato is a three-year-old feline who truly lives up to his name. Like a sweet potato, he is hearty, warm and absolutely soft on the inside. 

Potato is a world-class lap cat whose primary goal in life is to be as close to his humans as possible. If you are looking for a loyal companion to snuggle with while you work or relax, Potato is ready to fill that role with a purr and a head-butt.

Potato is a unique boy who lives with a condition called pica. This is a behavioral urge where a cat feels compelled to chew on or ingest non-edible items such as wool, plastic, hair ties or fabrics. Because of this, Potato requires a “cat-proofed” home where small, swallowable objects are kept safely out of reach. He needs an observant owner who can ensure his environment stays safe, as ingesting these objects can lead to serious health complications.

Because management is the key to Potato’s health, he needs a very specific environment for his well-being. Potato is at his best when he is the center of attention. Because stress can sometimes trigger pica behaviors, he requires a quiet, predictable home with no children or other cats or dogs. 

Potato thrives on human interaction and is the perfect “co-worker” for a remote worker who can provide the consistent attention and supervision he needs to stay happy and safe.

Potato has so much love to give and is simply looking for a dedicated partner who understands his quirks. In return, you will get a devoted best friend who will keep your lap warm and your heart full every single day.
