Mustard is a resilient cat who’s learning to trust again after a tough start. He’s a bit cautious initially, but once he feels safe, Mustard’s gentle side comes through. He’ll briefly allow pets on his back near his tail. Playtime is his highlight—whether it’s chasing crinkly toys, cardboard, felt mice, or anything with catnip, Mustard transforms into a speedy, playful hunter. He’s got a memorable little prance when he carries toys in his mouth. Mustard has a close relationship with his sister, Marinara. They’re bonded and need to go home together. Their ideal environment is a calm adult household without children, where patience and slow introductions can help Mustard continue building confidence. He makes impressive progress in his foster home, especially with consistent, gentle behavior work. Given time and understanding, Mustard and his sister will reward their adopter with affection, playfulness, and a lot of personality. He’s currently in Chicago, IL, waiting for someone who appreciates a pair of special felines with a lot of heart. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
