Meet Roberto—though he prefers to answer to Rumpie, not his "government" name. Rumpie brings the spirit of an old soul in the body of a four-year-old cat. He loves routine and makes it his mission to monitor your day, content to nap and supervise unless something grabs his attention. If there’s action during catnap hour, he’ll delay his rest every time. Found outside originally, Rumpie still operates with impressive hunter instincts and lightning-fast reflexes, but he’s not a whirlwind of constant motion. He likes his short bursts of play and then stretches out for long naps, especially if he can be close to his favorite people. Earning his trust is everything—be patient, and you’ll unlock some of the best snuggles around. He’s a lap cat at heart, happy to curl up beside or on you. Rumpie is friendly but can be shy at first—he’s clear when he’s reached his limit, communicating politely instead of lashing out. Respecting his boundaries will show you how genuinely affectionate he can be. This cat handles himself well in busy households, rolls with regular noise, and keeps a tidy litter box. He loves mealtime (currently devoted to Sheba Chicken) and sheds minimally. Rumpie would do best with adults or older, cat-savvy kids who understand a cat’s cues. Because his hunter drive is strong, slow and careful introductions with other pets—especially small ones—are critical. His foster family is committed to finding a match that will continue to cherish and understand him. Roberto is microchipped, neutered, vaccinated, and litter box trained. For adopters, note that applications are limited to homes within 100 miles of Wheaton or Glen Ellyn, IL. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
