Meet Hawthorn! Hawthorn is a handsome 8-year-old brown tabby with a gentle soul and a love for cozy naps. This sweet boy enjoys the simple things in life: a soft bed, a quiet spot to curl up, and kind people who respect his boundaries. Once he feels comfortable, Hawthorn's affectionate side shines through, and he'll reward you with his calm presence and soft purrs. Hawthorn is currently on EN food to help support his tummy, and he's doing better with his special diet. He's looking for a loving home that will keep him feeling comfortable and cared for. He has FIV, which means he has a weaker immune system than most cats. FIV cats can live a long, happy life, but should not go to a home with FIV-negative cats. If you're searching for a mellow, loving companion who appreciates both affection and personal space, Hawthorn might be your perfect match. He's ready to bring warmth, charm, and a little bit of wisdom to his forever home. Come meet him at the Animal Protective League located at 1001 Taintor Road in Springfield. We are open every day from noon to 5 p.m.
