About Garth A

Garth is part of a close-knit group of four cats adjusting to a big change after their previous owner passed away. These cats have only known life indoors, sharing a calm, low-traffic home. Garth stands out as an especially gentle, affectionate boy; once he gets to know you, he’s the type to flop down for long belly rubs. He’s a little cautious with new people, but with kindness and a gentle approach, his softer side is easy to see. All four cats have always lived together—while they’ll likely be adopted in pairs for comfort and stability, Garth is sure to connect well with another familiar face. He is already neutered and vaccinated, so he’s ready for his next chapter. Garth will thrive in a peaceful, loving home with patient people who understand the value of letting a shy cat settle at his own pace. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
