My owner told the HSHC she surrendered me because she had too many animals. On April 5, I became available for adoption. I am 5-years-old and have lived with my family my whole life. There, I learned to be sweet-natured and sociable. I am grateful for that because it makes me feel highly desirable. I am already neutered and litter-box trained. When the medical team examined me, they said I was bright, alert, responsive, and friendly. The interviewer lady (IL) visited me today, and we got along instantly. I began purring before she even opened my door. I rubbed against everything until she extended her hand. Then I stretched, rolled over, and head-butted her, excited for her attention. I crave affection, and she gave me all the rubs, pets, and scratches I wanted. I never got tired of being petted. I was disappointed when she had to leave. I sat by the door and chirped, hoping she'd come back. I hope you can see how eager I am to become a beloved pet and go home with you. The IL also said I'm a very handsome cat. Why not come and see for yourself? 4-16-26

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.
