Meet Winter Root: Winter Root is a striking young fluffball with long black fur and a heart full of love. Though he had a tough start living on the streets, this sweet boy has quickly shown just how affectionate and gentle he truly is. When you pick him up, he melts right into your arms, gazing up with adoring eyes and happily soaking up cuddle time. He genuinely enjoys being held and thrives on one-on-one attention. Winter Root has a playful, kitten side too! He loves leaping after wand toys, pouncing on feet under blankets, and proudly carrying soft, sparkly balls around in his mouth. He's very food motivated and eager for mealtimes, but outside of playtime he has a surprisingly calm, relaxed personality. You'll often find him quietly observing the world-or completely captivated by screens. Because of his time surviving outdoors, Winter Root resource guards food, toys, and litter boxes, especially around other cats. While he did ok with his littermates, he would do best as an only cat, or possibly with just one very compatible feline and ample resources. Winter Root would thrive in a calm home where he can feel secure, adored, and spoiled. In return, he offers endless cuddles, sweetness, and devoted companionship. He will need his own enclosed space to decompress and it could take some time for him to adjust to a new environment. Winter Root is fixed, microchipped, FIV/FeLv negative, and up to date on vaccinations for his age.
