Cliff is a young orange and white tabby who’s come a long way from surviving in a backyard to seeking love and comfort indoors. For months, he lounged under the olive tree and drank from the pool, too shy to get close — until one day, he showed up with a badly injured ear, pawing to come inside for help. After being trapped and treated, it turned out Cliff had severe ear mites, which left his ear permanently folded back, giving him an extra dash of charm! During recovery, we discovered his loving, playful side. He enjoys pets (especially forehead and chin scritches), loves his Churus, and even gave our vet tech air biscuits while being carried like a baby. Cliff is sweet, vocal, and food-motivated. He’s still learning how to interact gently and needs a patient, loving home to help him adjust. We believe he may do best as a single cat or in a home with a small cat friendly dog. Neutered, vaccinated (Rabies & FVRCP), microchipped FeLV negative, FIV positive (but healthy and can live a long, happy life!) DOB: 04/01/2023 Adoption fee: $225 Cliff is ready for his forever person. Could that be you?
