About Chestnut

Meet Chestnut, a spirited three-year-old who has recently found refuge after a rough stint on the streets of Elizabeth. This sweet boy was discovered in a TNR colony, showing signs of having been someone’s beloved pet, given his friendly demeanor. After a challenging past, he’s now thriving and enjoying life in a safe environment. Chestnut adores neck, chin, and head rubs, and you’ll find him purring in contentment during cuddle time. His playful side shines through when he’s batting around feather toys and catnip mice. From his window perch, he loves to chirp at birds, adding a dash of personality to his otherwise easygoing nature. This gentle soul would do well in a home, whether as a solo companion or with another mellow feline friend. Plus, he’s already neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, FeLV/FIV negative, and microchipped.
