Meet Hemingway, a big, handsome, and sweet boy with a heart as pure as his white belly and paws. Estimated to be about 3 years old, this long and lean dark tabby is a rescue from the local impound, and he’s quickly settled into his new life with a calm and loving presence. Hemingway loves his quiet moments and can often be found lounging by the window, soaking in the sights and sounds around him. He enjoys perching with his paws neatly over the edge, keeping a watchful eye on everything in his world.

When it comes to food, Hemingway is a bit of a connoisseur—he prefers fishy wet food and can’t help but drool with delight when he’s getting attention. Despite his big, regal stature, he’s a gentle giant who enjoys getting affection, and he’s such a pro at sitting still that he’ll pose nicely for pictures.

While Hemingway’s car ride was a bit stressful—resulting in a little mishap with vomiting and a little "accident" in his carrier.  He’s proven to be as sweet and chill as they come. He may be a big boy, but his gentle demeanor and love of lounging make him the perfect companion for a peaceful, loving home.

Hemmingway is from a local shelter.
