About Pyewacket

Pyewacket, often called Pye, is a mellow, older cat with a gentle spirit. He came in after his owner died and spent a short time outside, but with some help from a kind neighbor and family, Pye found safety and indoor comfort again. These days, he’s settled back into home life, happiest lounging on a windowsill, enjoying a full belly, and soaking up affection. His foster notes that Pye is very polite and quietly social, greeting people with a soft chirp and loving his daily pets. He can be a bit tentative with strangers, but once he opens up, he becomes a classic love bug—devoted and sweet to his person. While his age might say senior, Pye still has plenty of energy and a healthy curiosity about the world. He is neutered, microchipped, and fully up to date on vaccinations. Born January 31, Pyewacket is an Aquarius—which maybe explains his gentle independence. Ready to meet a gentle companion with plenty of life left? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
