My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Slim - The Sleek, Affectionate Black Cat Who's Ready to Steal Your Heart
Is there anything more striking than a sleek black cat? In many cultures, black cats are considered symbols of good luck, and with Slim, you'll definitely be feeling lucky. This sweet boy is about a year old and is ready to charm his way into your home and heart.
Slim's story hasn't been an easy one. He was once a beloved member of a family, but as he grew older and wasn't quite as "cute" as a kitten anymore, he was given the freedom to roam-first as an indoor/outdoor cat, and eventually, sadly, as a stray. For months, Slim wandered the neighborhood, hungry and alone, until neighbors took notice of his desperate need for affection. They began feeding him, and slowly, he gained weight and strength. Today, Slim is a healthy 9-pound boy, with the cutest little scars on his ears and nose-a reminder of the mosquitoes he battled during his time on the streets.
Now that Slim's found his way into a foster home, he's truly flourishing. He's affectionate, loving, and loves to be by your side. Whether it's sitting next to you while you watch TV or cuddling up in bed at night, Slim is happiest when he's close to his people. And if you need an extra reason to wake up in the morning, Slim will happily jump into your arms to start the day with snuggles and soft purrs. It's the best way to get your morning going with a little calm and a lot of love.
Slim is also a playful little guy. His favorite toy? The Cat Dancer. If you wave it around, he'll pounce and bat at it with all the enthusiasm he's got. He's a soft player, sometimes giving little love bites, like a kitten would. If you gently tell him "no, he'll stop right away. He's still adjusting to life indoors, but his foster family is working on helping him with this behavior. For that reason, we think Slim would do best in a home with older children who can guide him gently.
Slim isn't a shy guy. He's confident, friendly, and curious-if you have guests over, you can bet Slim will be the first one to greet them. He's the kind of cat who will want to join in on whatever fun is going on and will quickly become a part of the action. His affectionate side shines through when you give him a good chin scratch or a stroke down the sides of his face-he'll close his eyes and soak it all in, the picture of bliss.
When he's not snuggling, Slim is always ready for a little playtime. Once he's done relaxing and getting his snuggles, he'll let you know it's time for some fun again. He's also a little food enthusiast and gets very excited when it's dinner time, eagerly anticipating his half-can of Friskies.
If you're looking for a cat who is energetic, affectionate, playful, and always up for snuggling (and maybe a little mischief), Slim is your guy. He'll bring endless joy to your home with his loving nature and his playful personality. There's never a dull moment when Slim is around!
Slim has a lot of love and affection to give. He will warm your heart every day.
Slim is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and healthy (fiv and felv negative)

More about this rescue

Meowsquad is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization started in 2019. Our goal is to reduce the large stray and feral cat population of New York City by using Trap Neuter Return (TNR) techniques as well as working with the community to find forever homes for cats and kittens that can be resocialized. We also aim to relocate those who cannot be returned into safe, working environments.
