About Whiskey

Click apply to start the adoption process. Whiskey, part of a bonded trio with his siblings Skye and Peychaud, is eagerly waiting for a forever home where they can all be safe and loved. Once cherished pets, these three were sadly abandoned near a busy highway but are now thriving indoors and showing their sweet personalities. Whiskey is very affectionate, sometimes offering playful "love bites," and has a fascination with cords and cables—so any future family should keep those tucked away. He boasts excellent litter box manners and uses a scratching post like a pro. Whiskey and his siblings get along well with other cats and are tolerant of dogs, but they'd do best in a quiet home without small children. Their gentle, social nature makes them wonderful companions for a patient adopter. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
