Tommy is a savvy cat with a serious independent streak. He doesn’t get along with all cats and generally prefers the company of females, so a home without other males or as a solo cat is best. Tommy has mastered the art of escape and needs a diligent, attentive person to keep him safely indoors—his new owner will need to be both patient and creative. He thrives with experienced adopters who understand that certain situations, like going into a carrier or being picked up, require a calm and gentle approach since he’ll fight back if stressed. Still, Tommy shows his softer side: he’ll gladly curl up on your lap for petting and gets a real kick out of playing with toys. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tests negative for FeLV/FIV. Tommy is searching for someone who can offer understanding and the right boundaries—he’ll reward it with affection on his terms. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
