About Splash
Meet Splash! Splash is a black and white senior with plenty of charm and a definite sense of self. At 10 years old, he's still got his playful side, especially when the laser pointer comes out—expect pouncing and chasing. Splash likes to run the show with other cats, so he'll do best as the only feline in the house or alongside other FIV-positive cats who won't challenge his leadership. Dogs make him uncertain, so a calm, dog-free home suits him best. He is FIV-positive, so he needs to stay indoors to keep healthy. Splash is affectionate when he decides it’s time—you’ll know when he’s ready for a cuddle session. Most of the time, he appreciates some space, but when it’s his idea, he’ll seek out your attention and reward you with snuggles. If you appreciate a cat with confidence and plenty of love to give on his own terms, Splash might be just what you’re after. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
