Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Meet Stripe. He loves weaving around my legs, watching me brush my teeth and snuggling in bed with me. He loves loves loves snuggling as closely as he can in my bed at night. I do believe he developed FOMO (fear of missing out) as he follows me everywhere I go. Nothing is private when he is around ( including my bathroom breaks) but at least I’m never lonely. I’m thinking of changing his name to Dash or Flash because darts through any door I open first to assure that he is not left behind. As you can see by his pictures….his personality is BIG! He gets along great with other cats and dogs. How could you not love this silly boy? He is fully vetted and microchipped. To inquire more about him please email us at stfureverfreedomar@gmail.comVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 21, 2026, 9:22 am
