About

Meet Nugz

Nugz is a professional goofball and a total sweetheart as well as the official court jester to his sister, the royal Queen Looney Tunes. This handsome orange tabby is a bundle of silly energy and endless snuggles. He serves his queen and his people by providing endless entertainment. His favorite antics include ambushing crinkle balls, pouncing on anything that moves, and performing acrobatic leaps for treats. He has a heart as big as his personality, but he's also a mischievous court character who doesn't quite understand the concept of personal space. After a long day of adventuring, he's a true softie who melts into a purring ball of mush in your arms. While Nugz may lack a turn with the "one brain cell" all orange cats share, his curiosity is unmatched. He loves to explore his kingdom and discover new hiding spots. When he's not busy performing, he can be found snuggling up on the couch or perched on your chest, purring to get your attention. He loves everyone he meets and wants to be every person's buddy. Nugz is a nugget of pure joy, and his only weakness is the occasional fear of loud thunderstorms, for which he requires some extra snuggles from his people. This boy would thrive in a home with plenty of toys and a family ready for some fun.  Looney Tunes and Nugz have been a devoted duo for the past five years, enjoying a calm, quiet life as the only pets in a single-person home. Recently, their world got turned upside down when a blended family merged together, bringing multiple dogs, cats, and kids into the mix. It was all a bit too much for them. The stress of the big change caused a few accidents outside the litter box, and it was clear they needed a quieter environment to feel safe and secure. The good news is, with a clean litter box and a calm home, they have wonderful litter box habits. These two social and cuddly cats are ready for their next chapter. They're looking for a loving home where they can lounge on the couch and soak up all the affection you have to give. Their perfect match would be a single person, a couple, or a family with older, calmer kids. While they'd prefer to be the only pets, they could likely get along with a calm cat or dog that will generally leave them be.  Since Nugz is part of a bonded pair, he needs to be adopted with his friend Looney Tunes.  Click here to learn more about them.  If you're looking for a pair of perfect, mature cats (who won't even try to steal your snacks!), look no further. Looney Tunes and Nugz are as sweet as they come and can't wait to find a new home where they can relax and be themselves. Nugz is from an owner surrender and bonded with his sister.
