About Tater Tot

Tater Tot has a knack for making everyone feel welcome. Silver-gray and easy on the eyes, his charm is all about his personality. He’s about one year and eight months old as of December 2024 and has already become the go-to greeter for new fosters. He’s a cat who gets along with every feline he meets. Wrestling with kittens, joining group naps, and filling every day with play, Tater Tot finds joy in both company and a good window seat to watch the Outside World. He has a history of dermatitis—just a patch of skin that gets thick and itchy on occasion—but it’s controlled well with a short course of daily prednisone. This is inexpensive, works quickly, and doesn’t keep him from being a perfect companion. Tater Tot is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, negative for FIV and FeLV, and dewormed. If you’re interested in a two-cat household, he has foster friends he gets along with, too: Faith, Alfie, Kylee, and Moses. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
