Meet Stefano, a lively and charming young gentleman who is ready to find his forever home. Stefano is not your average cat; he's a unique and spirited feline with a personality that stands out.
As one of our longest stay residents, Stefano has a special diet to manage his food allergies, ensuring he stays healthy and happy. His energetic nature knows no bounds and he can be quite mischievous when you are preparing your own food. You may need some cat like reflexes to help keep him from eating things other than his special food.
Stefano is always up for a game of chase or a playful romp with his feline friends. If you have other cats, Stefano will fit right in and make fast friends, earning him the endearing nickname "Snugglemuffin."
One distinctive feature that adds to Stefano's charm is his bobtail, making him even more special. If you're ready to welcome a lively and affectionate cat into your home, consider adopting Stefano. He's not just a cat; he's a playful and unique companion ready to bring joy, energy, and plenty of snuggles into your life. Adopt Stefano today and embark on a delightful journey with this lovable Snugglemuffin.
