Beneath that mysterious look, I’m a gentle, kind-hearted guy who’s so excited to start the journey of finding my forever family. I’m really enjoying the good life indoors—long, cozy naps on my big fluffy blanket and plenty of yummy wet food are definitely favorites. I’m a big boy, and it’s not all fluff… if I do say so myself, I’m quite the handsome kitty! I came in from outside with a little cold, but my foster mom is helping me feel better every day. During my time here, I’ve been nothing but sweet and polite to everyone—truly a wonderful houseguest. I’m ready to take the next step and finally call a family my own. If you think that could be you, please fill out an application. I’d love to meet you! Shadow is from a stray surrender.

By day, he’s a professional napper who loves curling up on a folded blanket at the end of the bed or claiming his favorite chair in the living room. By night? That’s when Cletus clocks in for playtime. He loves feather toys and truly enjoys interactive play. When he’s feeling especially playful, he can get adorably enthusiastic and enjoys games that let him use his paws and practice his hunting skills. He’ll also happily remind you when it’s time to play—or eat—making him a fun companion for someone who enjoys a cat with personality and opinions. While he isn’t overly energetic, Cletus appreciates engagement and enrichment on his own schedule. Cletus values his independence and will do best in a home that allows him time to settle in and feel secure. Once comfortable, he enjoys being near his people and sharing space, even if he prefers to relax on his own terms.  Cletus requires prescription soft cat food to support his urinary health and will need to stay on this diet long-term. He has done very well on this food and has had no ongoing issues. Cletus was found as a stray. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.
