This Adopt a Shelter Cat Month, we’re shining a light on some of our favorite adoptable cats. Biryani is a very special boy in New York City, and he can’t wait to meet you!

Biryani is quite a playful cat, and he makes every day a little more fun — especially when there’s a toy to chase around! You’ll see his energetic side come out when you toss a mouse toy his way. After burning off some energy during playtime, he’ll be ready to relax and unwind. He can typically be found lounging in a cozy spot, enjoying a well-earned catnap.

This sweet boy enjoys the simple things in life. When getting to know Biryani, he is won over with the help of tasty treats and a gentle approach. He is happy to receive some affection, but ideally on his terms. A few light pets on the head are often enough! He is then content to simply share your company.

Biryani is a fantastic feline companion who appreciates a balance between playful energy and quiet relaxation. If you’d like to learn more about adopting this handsome guy, visit his profile!
