I was born at the HSHC in 2021. Take a gander at my baby picture and tell me I'm not a cutie-patootie. Due to no fault of my own, I have been adopted and returned two times. No one can figure out why I am still here. By choosing me, you'll gain an affectionate companion who is already neutered, litterbox proficient, and healthy. I have lived with dogs and kids aged 7 to 12, so I can easily fit into most households. I am now 4.5-years-old, a DSH, dark brown Tabby, with white feet, chin, and belly. I have always been a curious, active, playful boy. I love interactive play-that's time we can spend together, building a special bond. All cats need things to occupy their minds, such as cat trees to climb, toys to chase and catch (like laser pointers or fishing poles with toys at the end of the string), and scratching posts or pads. Playing with me several times a day will not only keep me happy, but will also bring you joy. A closed-top litterbox also keeps everything clean and tidy for you. When I visited with the interviewer lady (IL), I rolled onto my side for belly rubs and chin scratches, proving just how affectionate I am. When I want attention, I will climb into your lap, but I prefer to approach you myself. Too much petting can make me uncomfortable. Reading my body language will inform you when I'd like to be left alone. I thrive being with my people and will keep you company, making your home feel warm and welcoming. Adopting me means gaining a terrific cat who loves his family-maybe you're just the person I've been hoping for.4-2-26

Not Quite Ready To Adopt?
You can make an immeasurable impact by opening your home and your heart to an animal in need. Fostering is a great opportunity to introduce a pet into your home without making a lifelong commitment. Many of our foster humans end up adopting their fostered animals, but many also choose to just provide the temporary shelter and love our animals need to get through a trying time.
