Hermes

Hermes is a brave-hearted kitten with a big purrsonality, once he feels safe. Initially a bit shy, he prefers to observe new situations from a distance, often looking to his sister Athena for reassurance. However, give him a ribbon toy, and his true playful nature shines through! He's a dedicated toy hunter, a mouse assassin, and a ribbon warrior, leaping and tumbling with Olympic-level enthusiasm. Unlike his sister, Hermes absolutely loves being held and is always eager for belly rubs, making him a cuddly companion once he trusts you.

As a Domestic Short Hair, Hermes embodies the adaptable and affectionate traits common in mixed breeds. He is noted to be good with dogs, cats, and children, making him a versatile addition to many families. His playful energy, while high during playtime, is balanced by his desire for comfort and closeness. He and Athena are deeply bonded, sharing a love for ribbon toys and sleeping close to their foster's legs, demonstrating their need for companionship and security.

Hermes is seeking an indoor-only home where he can be adopted with his littermate, Athena, as they are a bonded pair. His ideal family will be patient and understanding of his initial shyness, ready to engage him with plenty of playtime and gentle affection. A home that appreciates his playful antics and provides a secure, loving environment will find a loyal and entertaining companion in Hermes.
