About Tommy

Tommy has made real progress since arriving at the rescue. He’s sweet and feisty and absolutely loves hanging out with other cats. He fits best in a home that isn’t too hectic or full of young kids, since his personality makes him a little unsuited to very busy settings. Other cats with good social skills do well with Tommy—he tends to be persistent both in his affection and his play style, which might overwhelm cats that need a lot of personal space. For people and new places, Tommy is easily startled, so a patient adopter who understands nervousness is key. Tommy absolutely needs a cat companion and will not thrive as a single pet. He’s neutered, vaccinated for his age, microchipped, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, dewormed, and on flea prevention. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
