About Bob

Bob is a charming tuxedo cat, about three years old and weighing in at nine pounds, with incredibly silky-soft black and white fur that just begs to be petted. He thrives on attention and will happily keep you company with whatever you're up to, whether it's working on the computer or simply lounging at home. Bob is wonderfully affectionate—not just with people, but especially with kittens. He's the resident nurturer in his foster home, often stepping up to cuddle and care for foster kittens when their moms are taking a break. Seeing him snuggle with a pile of kittens is guaranteed to melt your heart. On the playful side, Bob has real energy and a unique style. He has a love for electronic toys he can carry or take apart, earning him the nickname "Bob the Terminator." He's social but selective about other cats—he gets along great with some, but not every feline is a match. If you already have cats, just plan for a slow introduction. Bob had a tough start as a kitten, losing one eye to a severe respiratory infection. His remaining eye works well but needs some ongoing gentle care, like warm compresses and eye drops, which he's quite cooperative about. He hardly looks like he's missing an eye thanks to his natural coloring, and his lively, playful spirit really stands out. He’s looking for a home where he can love, play, and join in on everyday life. Your new best friend is just one click away.
