Meet Love - a charming gentleman with a heart as big as his name!
Love is the perfect blend of independence and affection. He's a curious, friendly, and calm feline who adores human company. As a true professional cat, Love's daily routine involves expert biscuit-making on soft blankets, sunbathing sessions, and savoring good meals (with the occasional extra treat for exemplary behavior).
This toothless wonder will melt your heart with his adorable meows and yawns. Love's favorite pastimes include greeting you at the door with purrs and affectionate rubs, snuggling in bed for nighttime cuddles, and taking cozy daytime naps. He enjoys lounging near his favorite humans, sharing gentle head bumps with his loved ones, and chasing toy mice during bursts of playful energy.
While not overly playful, Love is a social butterfly who enjoys the company of both cats and dogs. He thrives in a calm environment with other relaxed animals that match his easygoing energy. Love's gentle nature shines through in his ability to gracefully remove himself from potentially stressful situations rather than escalating them.
Love is searching for a forever home where he can receive a little tender loving care in exchange for filling your heart with boundless affection. He has a sensitive tummy (as sometimes older cats do) so he eats a special diet and takes a daily steroid to help him stay regulated. Love will go home with a CARE PACKAGE.
This sweet soul is ready to become your loyal companion and bring joy to your everyday life. Give Love a chance, and he'll show you just how much there is to love about him!"
You can see more of Love's adventures on his Instagram page! Give him a follow at @adopt_me_philly !
**Since in foster care, Love's become buddies with another foster cat named Kicha. She's the little sister he didn't know he needed. Kicha has taught Love to play and they enjoy nightly chases and spending time near each other. Kicha can be silly, playing with his ankles and Love is here for it. These two have a really cute friendship and are both so sweet. Both came from a hard start: Love not thriving as a community cat and Kicha having her tail cut off as a community cat. It would be so precious to get them adopted out together!**
During PAWS' "Cold Noses & Warm Hearts" Adoption Promotion running through 12/24, adopters can name their adoption fee for any cat over 6 months old or dog over 40lbs.
Age: 11 years young! How I came to PAWS: Transfer from ACCT Animal ID#: A55846
