Lap kitten extraordinaire Hot is a luscious polydactyl micro-panther with golden eyes! This handsome black-on-black tabby boy has extra toes too!
Hot is a playful black male kitten who loves to run and pounce. He’s a purr-machine and loves to cuddle, making him the perfect lap cat.
He has some unique physical traits too. He is a black-on-black tabby. You can only see his stripes in certain lights, but it is stunning and very unique. He is also polydactyl in both front paws, meaning he has extra toes! Sometimes these types of cats are called Hemminway Cats. He has a scattering of white locket fur and throughout other parts of his body.

Enjoys lap Time to the fullest!
Hot gets along well with other cats, especially his buddy Aurora (also available, shown below). He is tolerant of dogs that don’t see him as prey. However, he can be skittish around toddlers and dogs that are aggressive or prone to chasing cats.

If you have a cold lap that needs warming and tons of affection, Hot would like you to fill out an adoption application below and put his name on top! He would enjoy going home with his sister Aurora, but we don’t believe they are bonded.
